DESCRIPTION
You can't build a huge business alone, but when should you bring in help? What kind of help do you need early? What kind of help can wait until later? What are the benefits (and pitfalls) of creating or joining a network of podcasts? What are the smart ways to branch out beyond podcasting to grow even more? We faced all these questions while growing a single podcast (Grammar Girl) into the Quick and Dirty Tips network with 14 shows, more than 160 million lifetime downloads, and 4 million monthly web visitors. Find out how you can get growth like this too. Want to learn more?
