Listen on

Episode notes

Are you thinking about taking the summer off from your podcast? You might want to reconsider. 

In the world of podcasting for educators, downloads typically increase in the summer. Because if you're talking to teachers or other types of educators, they hopefully have some time off during the summer and therefore have more mental capacity to consume things.

However, a quick disclaimer: Not all podcasts in the education space see a summer download increase. But if you look at your data and determine that your show falls into this camp, this episode is for you. 

Because no matter how hard they try to fight it when they should be resting, teachers are probably still thinking about the upcoming school year in some way. How can they plan more efficiently? How can they improve their classroom management? How can they improve their relationships with coworkers, parents, or admin? 

Today, I wanted to help answer your questions about leveraging this increased attention and what you should do with your podcast during the summer. I'm sharing some ideas on what kind of content you could release this summer, how to connect with your listeners, and things to consider when promoting your podcast during the summer. 

And even if you've decided to take a step back or a break from your show this summer, listen to these ideas and let them sink in for next summer!
