The Podcast Manager Show

Do podcasting awards matter? It’s a great question and one that (with our clients) we need to weigh the pros and cons before applying. In this episode I’m sharing when and why you should submit your clients for podcasting awards PLUS, I’m sharing the top 10 awards that your client can win! If you didn’t know, many awards cost money to apply for so we’re covering the costs of each of these awards and if listeners play a role by voting.
