ep. 45: How to Pick a Podcast Name

Home computers weren't available to us until I was almost out of high school and into college. And, if that was you too....wasn't 1980 like 20 years ago and not 42?? my bad.... We had a printer that used the paper that had the circles on the side? What was that called?

What’s In a Name?

So, have you ever googled your name? It's kinda fun, kinda terrifying for me. I don't want my name out there on the internet like say for my home address...but in business terms, I DO want my name searchable!

Just like we searched our name back in the early 2000's on our computers, your podcast name is searchable! When you put your podcast name in the search bar, your podcast will come up! People can listen straight from google to your podcast through apple podcast, Spotify, Player FM, and the others you selected in your hosting site!

THIS IS AN EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY FOR YOU. NOT ONE TO BE MISSED.

The main thing is Your Podcast name needs to be CLEAR.

What is the CONTENT?

CLIENTS...WHO is LISTENING?

What are they COMING to you for?

That is exactly what it needs to be about.

But, you say, Wren What if you like the cutzy stuff????

Put it on your marketing merch!

Name your mini course the fun play on words!

Disclaimer:

Now, If you are a highly creative person like me and you cannot NOT be creative... feel free to take a few creative liberties (if it matches your brand)

With Don't Wing It Podcast, I am basing the name after my brand, I'm here to help because life's too short to just wing it...after my name Wren Robbins that it has to do with birds, etc....this is memorable.

BUT, I did a subtitle...Podcast Strategy for the Christian Woman and the words podcast strategy are google-able.

Pick a Podcast Name:

Bonus: Search in apple podcast for the name you picked to make sure it is not one in use.

So what happens, if You Picked The Wrong Name?

1. You can add a subtitle

2. You can change the name


I'm thinking of airing a future episode on titling podcast episodes, so let me know if you think it would be helpful for you!
