What you're gonna do, brother, when Jeff Townsend Media runs wild on you. Have you been searching for a podcast? Do you want to learn from some great content creators? Well you've come to the right place Indie Podcaster with your host Jeff Townsend, the Indie podcast Father. All right, all right, all right, this is Jeff Townsend. Thank you for checking out another episode of Indie Podcaster. This podcast is made for podcasters and other content creators. Certainly don't consider myself a guru, or either do any of my friends that will be featured in these episodes. But what we do like to do is talk content creation, pick each other's brains, and have a good time. I'm proud to mention that this podcast is sponsored by Indie drop In. Now, let me tell you something about Indie Dropping. This is an awesome network that my friend Greg has created. What he does is drop episodes from independent content creator into his established podcast audience on his feed, and he shares your episodes to an audience that already exists. Yes, it's like free advertisement promotion for your podcast. He spent a lot of time, money, and effort building it, and he already has an audience interested in the content, and he can certainly help you by sharing your content is great promotion. Go to indie drop in dot com slash creators and check it out. If you're a comedy, true crime, paranormal, for various other different kinds of podcasts, you can benefit from this. So I really encourage you once again go to indie drop in dot com slash creators and see if you can get your stuff featured on indie drop in. We'll go back to the podcast here Indie Podcasters. So what we've currently been doing is sharing content from three different projects that I'm involved in. The first is Good Morning Podcasters with my good friend Fuzz Martin. We also do some content on podcasting Sucks, and then in these episodes you will also hear some content from podcasting Power Hour. Podcasting Power Hour is a live thing we do on Twitter spaces. We get a whole bunch of great podcast minds together we talk podcasting. So if you're a content creator a podcaster, I think you'll take something away from every episode of the content I'm going to share with you. With that being said, make sure you check out Eddie drop in and make sure you enjoy this episode. I think it's important that we all continue to learn and grow every day, and that will help us become even better content creators. That's certainly what I try to do, learn something new every day. I'm excited to share this content with you. I think it'll be a learning experience for you. Let's get to this episode, and I hope you have a great time listening to it. Good Morning Podcasters. Has anyone ever actually promoted it on Reality Records? Today we're talking about organizing your podcast. What's happening you, beautiful podcasters? Welcome to Good Morning Podcasters. I am Fuzz Martin, your host. I also have the flu, So if it sounds like I have the flu, it's because I have the flu. I saw a question on Reddit which comes up a lot about how podcasters organize their show and their guests and whatnot. So I think on to talk about some of the tools that are available and how I organize my show. Well shows, I actually have three, but I use basically the same process for managing all three. Having a podcast means keeping track of a lot of things. You have to keep track of your guests, your show topics, your show notes, maybe scripts if you have a scripted show, research articles, audio, files, logos and other branding elements, and design files, audio tracks, maybe sound effects, processing settings, so many different things, and there are a number of organizational tools out there that will help you keep track of all those things, or at least most of those things. And you don't have to pay a bunch for them either, though you can if you want to, of course, but for some of these you can get away with the free version if you're a solo podcaster, or maybe it's one or two of you podcasting. Some of the good organizational tools out there or project manage tools which can be used for organizing your show include Asana, Google Drive, Monday dot Com, Trello, Basecamp, though I don't believe they have a free tier, and Smartsheet, which also doesn't have a free tier. Plus there are a whole bunch of other apps out there. There's writers room apps, there's different things like that. Each of these tools allows you to organize information in their own sort of way. Some have similar features, some are much different than the others. It's all a matter of your style and the needs of your show and how your brain works. Really, so what do I do and what do I use? Well, my main hub for all of my shows is Trello. Trello is a Canban style digital organization board. So Canman is a manufacturing management system and relies on cards kind of like digital sticky notes or in some cases actual physical cards or sticky notes that are set into different columns which happen to be a stage of the process, and you move a card from the beginning of the process to the end along the way, and you can see what stage of a project each card is currently in. The great part about Trello is that you can make however many columns you want or need, and then you can add as many cards underneath those columns as you need. So for my show, in my Treillo board for Good Morning Podcasters, I have these columns on the far left. I have one called Incoming. That's where I write down any two do item that I can think of, any sort of thing that comes to mind. I immediately put it into Incoming, so I can get my thought down and then I worry about organizing where it goes later. Then I have three columns where most of the business gets done. The first column is called this week's Good Morning Podcasters episodes. You may have seen screenshots of this on my Twitter feed or on my Instagram feed. In this column, I only keep the three episodes that I'm going to publish this coming week, so I have Monday, Wednesday, and Friday episodes right in there so I can stay organized and know what is coming up. To the right of that, I have a column called next Week, which is obviously next week's shows, but it's kind of a tentative list of ideas for next week's shows. Those get moved around a lot, and sometimes they don't make them into this week's shows, but that's kind of my staging area of I'm doing these three this week and the next week, I'm going to do this and I can kind of see what they all look like next to each other. After that, it's a column called Topics, and this is a full brain dump of any sort of topic that I might want to cover on this show. So I currently have one hundred and eighty six cards in that column. Some are absolute garbage, some are great. It's brainstorming, so I put it all down there because it might spark another thought. But the cool part about Trello, or one of the many cool parts about Trello, is that it is really easy to grab a card and drag it to the top. So let's say I have an idea that I want to bring to the next episode, or I'm like, this is a really good one, I should talk about this, or this is topical right now, I can drag it to the top and then it's there for me to see. Also, when I drop a new idea into my incoming column, I will then drag it into the kind of level of importance in that topic column to say, like, Okay, this is an important topic that I need to get too soon, or maybe I'll just put it in there for later, like this is something I can talk about down the road. If it's very important or very topical, I'll keep it at the top, or I might even drop it into my next week column. And if it's something i'd like to cover later or when I'm struggling for an idea, then I drop it down to the middle or the bottom of that stack. The fifth column is called social posts, and this is really just a reminder of what posts I need to create for each episode. So it reminds me to post it on Twitter, it reminds me to create an Instagram story and to put it in my Instagram News feed, and also any other pieces that I might need to create for social are all in my social post column. So the right of that is my done column. I drag topic cards that are completed into that column so I can easily reference them instead of having it scroll through my RSS feed. I can just either search through that or just scroll down and look through. Then the next set of columns are for branding and marketing purposes. So I have a resources column that contains a card called colors, which holds the Good Morning Podcasters brand colors, the hex codes, the RGB codes, CNYK, etc. It has my logo files in Photoshop format, in ping and JPEG and in different sizes and such. I have my head shot and Jeff Townsend's headshot in case the journalist or another podcast asks for them. I need to put mine and Jeff's standard bios in there as well so that I don't need to rewrite those anytime we get asked for them. But that's a good best practice for you from a PR standpoint, is to always have that kind of stuff on file and ready to go. Then I've got a column called parking lot. This is ideas that I have for the show that might be useful in the future, are on hold for now. Maybe they're too ambitious, I don't have time for them, or they'll take more work to put in, or maybe want to wait and see if that's something that I want to do. And I have my sponsor's column that includes information about show sponsors, potential sponsors, those kind of things, contact information, whatever we've negotiated is in there so that I know and then I can mark off. I've got a little inside a Trello card. You can drop a checklist and then check it off as you go. So let's say I have four sponsored pre roles. I can check those off as I complete them, and then I know when that's done or if I still have more to do, and that's it. Those are my Trello columns. I also make good use of Trello's label system. I like Trello's labels because they have a color blind mode, and I'm quite color blind. Their colorblind mode uses patterns on top of the colors to make it better stand out from one another. More apps should adopt this. So for labels, I have marketing, public relation, social media, advertising, general podcasting. I've got one for podcasting, sucks episodes I've got one that says sponsored, so I know when I have a sponsored episode, I have done and I have show stuff. I label each topic card with its overall theme, whether that's marketing, advertising, PR, social media, or general podcasting, so that it can easily look at a glance and make sure that I have a good mix of different types of topics throughout the week and I'm not just heavy on one theme. It's real easy to do a whole bunch of social media posts because there's always so much news out there about that and I like to spread that out. I have a done label, as you heard, because it feels good to mark something is done, and then I drag it into the done column. And it's really more for a dopamine spike than for actual organization. And that's really the gist of how I organize Good Morning podcasters in my real life work world. I use some of the other Treilo features, like team tagging, so I can tag people and assign them different tasks, which you could certainly do if you have a co host on your show, or maybe you're working with a producer. Really easy way to say who's responsible for which thing. And that's all included within Trello and that epic creative. We also have it tied into our website with Zapier and automation software, which, by the way, it's pronounced the Zapier. I know it's written like Zapier, and a lot of people get it wrong because of that single P. But I reached out to Zapier and they told me in quotes, Zapier makes you happier, which is much better than you get the idea. Trello also has some of its own automations. There's a feature called Butler, and a whole bunch of other power ups that you can explore, and you can tie them into all sorts of different things like scheduling software and things like Google Calendar, things like that, and again the other apps like Asana and Monday. They all have really good features that might make sense for you and your show setup. But I just wanted to explain to you how I do it. Your mileage, as they say, may vary, and with that, I'm gonna drop this episode in the done column and call it a show. Thanks for dealing with my voice and thanks for listening to Good Morning podcasters. You can catch every episode at good morningpod dot com.

Otherwise, have a great weekend and we'll talk to you Monday right here on Good Morning Podcasters. Good Morning Podcasters, let's talk about how to make the links you share on social media look better. Welcome to the thirtieth episode of the all new Good Morning Podcasters. My name is Fuzz martin. In. Each week I bring you three episodes dedicated to helping you get better at marketing, advertising, PR and social media as those things relate to podcasting. If you listen to last Friday show, which actually came out on Saturday morning, you'll know that I am getting over the flu, and while I feel a lot better, I'm still not one hundred percent and that's mostly coming through in my voice. But the show must go on. It doesn't really need to go on. Like you, I could have really taken some time off for rest, and I'm sure you would have been fine with that. But I like podcasting and I like my routine, so let's get into it. Do you know what the term open graph means? Open graphs are meta tags that work behind the scenes on a website page. So when somebody shares a link to a page with proper open graphs on social media, those open graphs are retrieved and the preview for that page looks great. When there are no open graph tags, the preview usually looks like garbage. You get a little square to the left, usually with an oddly cropped image or a broken image, and then some text on the right, and it just looks ugly and mailed in. People are more likely to interact with a good looking link, and therefore that link is more likely to perform better on social media, specifically in the algorithms, because the algorithms like posts that are getting clicks and likes. The op protocol was actually created by Facebook in the early twenty tens, and then a few years later, Twitter, LinkedIn and other social net working sites adopted them as well. There are four real types of open graph tags that are required when a link is shared on social media. The first is the title, so this would be the title of your page as you want it to appear on social media. It shouldn't be any longer than sixty characters, so if you're using a regular title tag on your website, you get your title there. Your social tag should be sixty characters or less so that it doesn't get cropped when you share that title on social media. The type that's the second kind of open graph tag that's required. This is the type of content. Usually you'll use website for everything unless it's a article, and if you're using an article, then you'd use the article tag, So it's either article or website. If you're using some plugins like yost or seo Press, they'll give you the option to toggle that. The third required type is image, and that's the one we're going to talk about a bit more coming up. But the open graph image is the preview image that people are going to see when your link is shared. This one is the most visible, you know, since it's an image, and this is the one you should care the most about. And again we'll talk more about that coming up. In a few moments. And the fourth required tag is the URL tag. So obviously the URL that is being shared you should use the canonical tag and I'll provide a link to aa trefs that you can read more about on how to use the canonical tag with your URL open graph tag. One other important tag, though it's not required, is the og description tag. You get a very limited snippet of text below your image when you share a link on social media. If you use the open graph description tag, you can make sure that the text is written to connect to those seeing that post on social media Specifically, there are a whole bunch of other types of open graph tags as well, but those that I've mentioned are the most important for your social posts. So now let's discuss open graph images again. The open graph image tag, when used correctly, will make your images look great whenever your link gets shared on Facebook and particular, but also LinkedIn Twitter, Slack, post news, masted on MySpace, I got nothing. Your open graph image should be twelve hundred by six hundred and thirty pixels. It needs to be less than five megabytes, though you should never really have images that are five megabytes big on your website. Page. Ever, that'll kill your site load speed, so don't do that. Make that as small as you can make it while still having good quality. Your image should be branded relevant to your episode. You can always just have one site wide open graph images if this is something that you don't want to do for every single episode, but just know that when you share that, it'll be the same image that's shared every time linked your website is shared. But you want a twelve hundred by six thirty image. I try to make them customize for each episode that I do. Everything's the same, I just changed the title and maybe swapping a different background image or color. So how do you install and edit open graph tags on your website? It really varies from site to site, but if you're in WordPress, I recommend installing the free version of the yost plugin. This will take care of that for you. Then you can scroll to the bottom of any new posts that you create. You click on the word social inside the yost seo box, and then you can edit your open graph title, description, and image in there. If you edit the Facebook area and this goes for any site, you should be good pretty much on any social media platform. But I forgot to mention this earlier. Twitter has created its own protocol called Twitter Cards. It's pretty much the same thing, though slightly different. Twitters preferred image size is eight hundred pixels by four hundred and eighteen pixel, but if you scale that up by one and a half, it comes out to twelve hundred by six twenty seven instead of twelve hundred by six thirty, so you're three pixels off. It'll be okay. Also, if your Twitter card information isn't available, Twitter will just default to your open graph tags anyway. So I've only used specific Twitter cards a handful of times in my life. You should be fine with open graph, standard images and open graph tags unless you really want different image or different texts on Twitter specifically, or if Elon changes something on us, which he is wont to do. If you're using squarespace to edit your open graph image, just go to page settings, go to social image, and then upload. If you're on Wix, you can edit this in the social sharing settings area of a post. It's a bit of a tongue twister. And if you're using podcast page dot io, once your episode has gone live, click edit, scroll all the way to the bottom of the page. There's a little edit pencil button next to advanced SEO settings. Click that, and then you can edit your SEO title, description, and image, which includes the social sharing image. I've been starting to ask as many connected people as possible to make updates to the podcast RSS protocol to include open graph images in the RSS feed, so this can be an automated process with websites, we'll see if anybody's listening. Are you listening, please include the open graph image in our podcast RSS feeds. Thank you. You're spending a lot of time putting out great content for your show. It only makes sense that your web content is as good looking as possible, and when you share an episode or your website or an article from your website on social media, that it looks great and you're getting good interaction with your page. There are few things that make me cringe more than when somebody posts a link to their website on social with a broken open graph image or even an ugly image. Make yourself some twelve hundred x six thirty pixel open graph images and make sure they're properly installed on your site. I've got links to the Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn post validators and inspectors on good morningpod dot com, or you can check the show notes. That'll do it for today's episode of Good Morning Podcasters. If you found this episode helpful, please consider giving me a five star review on your preferred pod platform. Also, please consider following the show and telling your friends who podcast about GMP. Thanks again, we'll talk to you on Wednesday right here on Good Morning Podcasters. Sh Good Morning Podcasters, Let's talk about a couple of different types of advertising. Hello, I'm Fuzz Martin and this is Good Morning Podcasters. Thank you for joining me today on the thirty first episode of GMP. On today's episode, I'm going to discuss advertising strategies, particularly awareness versus intent. We'll talk about what those terms mean and how they're important to your podcast, But first I'm going to give you an example of awareness advertising. Today's episode is brought to you by podcastpage dot io. If you have a podcast, you need a website. Podcast Page is an easy and intuitive platform that allows you to create a full podcast website and basically no time at all. The platform syncs to your show's RSS feed and automatically creates new episode specific pages every time you release a new episode. It even works with your YouTube channel It also imports reviews and has subscribe icons for all the major podcatchers. It comes with the ability to create a full blog, guest profile pages, intake forms, contact forms of voicemail widget. They've got beautiful designs and templates, and a dragon drop editor. Podcastpage dot Io will have your show's website up and running quickly without costing you a lot of time or money that you would spend on other web platforms. Go to podcast page dot Io and get started today. Thank you to podcast page for sponsoring today's episode of Good Morning Podcasters. So do you see how that worked? I was making you aware of a brand. Awareness is pretty simple to understand as it relates to advertising. It refers to the extent to which consumers or listeners are familiar with your brand, product, service, or say, your podcast. This can include something as basic as knowing about your show, being familiar with it, or even being able to recall specific details about your show. That's awareness. The goal of awareness campaigns in advertising is to increase familiarity, in this case, with your show and make it top of mind for your potential listeners. When it comes to an awareness campaign to promote your podcast, that could include things like promo swaps, network ads, banner ads, Facebook and Instagram ads, billboards, television radio, any sort of mass media or advertising newspaper, anything you want to do to reach a wide audience that does not likely know about your podcast. Conversely, pretty much any of the advertising that you do on your show, so your host red ads, interviews you do with different people who are trying to sell something, whether that's a service or a book, or an upcoming event, programmatic spons that you may run in your show through your hosting platform. Those are all examples of awareness advertising. Intent, on the other hand, is how we describe advertising or marketing toward people who are already in the know and ready to take action, or as we might say, they intend to take a specific action. Goals of an intent based campaign would be to get a potential listener to take the next step toward becoming an actual listener, whether that's by going to your website or going to your Apple Podcasts page. Let's give an example of what we would call a potential listener that would benefit from intent based advertising. Let's say there's somebody out there who's fully aware that there is a thing called true crime podcasts that exist in the world, and that person really enjoys them. And let's say they go to Google and search for a new true crime podcast to listen to. They might type in true crime podcast or type in new true Crime Podcasts twenty twenty three into their search bar. Well, you, as a newer true crime podcaster, would not be able to compete with those who have established true crime shows because there are so many out there, and those shows might have been featured on NPR or New York Times. They may just be huge, and therefore those established shows SEO will likely blow yours out of the water, and the results for your show would likely be buried deep. However, you could skip the line and create some Google search ads for those types of keywords. Now your ads will be served to those who are typing in the keywords you want because they intend to listen to a true crime show and they've typed that into their Google search bar. Or let's say somebody already came to your website, looked around for a bit, but never clicked the play button, or they never clicked off to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, good Pods, et cetera. With retargeting and conversion tracking, you could serve display ads to them wherever they go on the Internet, essentially to remind them of their previous intent and get them to come back to your site. There are also some ads called lead generation ads or lead gen ads that are designed to get people to sign up for things like your newsletter, provide their information for a giveaway or sweepstakes, or for some sort of demo. Those are all examples of intent or consideration advertising. And also when someone signs up for your emails, they have the intent to follow your show and are likely to listen to your show, so that would be considered intent advertising as well when you send out an email to that group. If you're going to advertise your podcast, which style of advertising should you choose? Well depends. The right answer is probably a mix. I advertise good Morning podcasters through Reddit ads on subredits like our podcasting or our Adobe audition, because I know the people who are in those subreddits are there with the intention of finding information about podcasting and audio editing those kinds of things, so to me, that would be considered intent advertising. I basically know who those people are and why they're there in that spot at that time. I also run ads on Facebook and Instagram to a wider audience of people who are likely not on those sites looking for information about podcast but have podcasting as an interest. Because that's a wider audience that I want to become familiar with Good Morning Podcasters, I would consider that awareness advertising, and there's obviously great area in between all of those. Your strategy should always start with your goal and then use a mix of tactics to get there. If you want to increase newsletter signups, definitely going to be intent based advertising. You want to increase awareness about your show, obviously it's in the title awareness advertising. I'll just put this out there. If you ever have a question about advertising, or if you ever want me to give you some advice on what kind of advertising you should be spending your money on, feel free to shoot me at DM on Twitter at GM Podcasters, or you can email me fuzz at good morningpod dot com and if I can, I'll help point you into the right direction. That'll do it for today's episode of Good Morning Podcasters. I hope you found it helpful. If you did, please consider dropping a five star review on good Pods, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Podchaser, or just you know, draw five stars on a whiteboard and send me a photo that makes me feel good. It makes me feel like what I'm doing is working. Also, be sure to follow the show if you're not already. New episodes come out Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. And speaking of Friday, I'll speak to you on Friday right here on Good Morning Podcasters. Sh Good Morning Podcasters. Let's talk about merch How do y'all? I hope you're having a great Friday. Happy Friday, the third hope it's not too spooky for you. Sorry. My name is Fuzz Martin and this is Good Morning Podcasters, a show where we explore marketing, advertising, public relations, and social media topics as they connect to the podcasting industry and more importantly, how you can connect them to your podcast. The idea for this show is to provide you with practical, actionable ideas. I have no place for gurus or those who want to pump you up and make you feel good. I'm a doer. I want you to be able to do. So let's do today. I want to talk to you about merchandise. So here's what we're going to discuss. One do you need merch Two? Is it worth it? Three? What kind of merch should you get? And four? How do you do it? It'll be pretty high level. Sound good to you? Sounds good to me. Let's get into it. Do you need merch? Let me answer that question with some questions. Is your audience asking for merch or do you just want to have some merch for yourself? Who is going to purchase your merch? Where are they going to wear your merch? Will merch help others start listening to your show? Do you know anyone with a podcasting t shirt? Do you know anyone who wears podcasting t shirts? Besides Ed Canard of the greatest song ever sung poorly podcast? Depending on the size of your audience base and the rabidness of your audience, it might be a good idea, but it also might not. Podcast merchandise might also be good if you're, say, going to a conference or trade show, speaking at an event, if you have a local presence, or if you have a nationally recognized show. So number two is it worth it? Is having merchandise for your show worth the money and time involved in getting it up and running? It might be, but you need to be careful. Here are some things that I recommend you look out for. Number one, Unless you have a crazy large following in brand and you know that people are itching to get your hands on that brand. Don't buy merchandise in bulk. You don't want to have a garage or a basement full of boxes of T shirts in size medium, small, large, extra large, double, xcel, etc. You don't want those sitting around molding in your basement. Little anecdote for you. I run a nonprofit. I was convinced to purchase a bunch of T shirts for a fundraiser, which was a great event and we raised a ton of money. We also spend twenty six hundred dollars on approximately two hundred and seventy five T shirts and I have approximately two thousand dollars worth of T shirts left. It's not a good place to be and you don't want to be there with your show. So I highly recommend not buying a whole ton of merch in bulk unless you know that you have the audience that is going to support and move that. And how do you know you'll know? Or you can just ask them, do a survey, do a pre order. And number two and is it worth it? You need to be sure that your audience is clamoring for merch. It's typically a low margin product, so unless you can sell T shirts at thirty bucks apiece or move a lot of volume, the upfront work might not be worth your time. All right? Third question, what kind of merch should you get for your show? The type of merch you should perch completely depends on your audience, your genre, your podcast's brand, personality, etc. Some like overarching ideas or you know, of course, T shirts, stickers, hoodies, coffee mugs, water bottles. There are hundreds of different ideas and thousands of different ideas, and depending on your show, there might be some custom items that might make sense for your audience. Let's say you run a podcast about beer. I'm looking at you, Dave from Beer in Front, you could create custom cancoosies. I'd buy one of those. My wife has an education podcast. She often speaks at conferences. We've created notebooks for teachers with the show's logo on them and they're a big hit. So, depending on your audience and your topic, could be some great ideas. Get creative with it. People love free stuff. Just make sure that they're going to use it and that it also might help others find your show. It's all about discoverability right. And finally, how do you get your merch created again? Unless you have thousands of listeners each month, I don't recommend buying a boatload of merch and hoping it sells. You might get caught holding the bag and left dropping off giant boxes of your podcast here t shirts at Goodwill. Instead, I recommend starting with a print on demand service. With a print on demand service, you will get less margin per item, but you won't have to worry about storing inventory or even shipping that inventory when it sells. The items are made by the drop shipper and shipped directly to your listener on demand. There are a number of print on demand sites out there with good catalogs. I've used two and I've been happy with both of them. Threadless has a very easy to set up store you can create and point your listeners to. The merchandise. Quality is okay, it's serviceable, it's good. I've got a hoodie from there that I wear all the time, and it's about four years old. It's worn out, but it's comfy. The other side that I use very regularly is print full printfl is cool because it will connect with the WordPress, Squarespace, Shopify very easily. It also connects with Etsy, wix, eBay, wee Blee, Amazon, a whole bunch of others as well. Printfal has a great catalog of products that you can choose from, both for screen printing type or digital printing type products or embroidery. And they've got hundreds of easy to follow videos that will help you get started, and you can even get a store. You could have a store up and running in fifteen minutes, Soup to nuts, as they say, you get this, set the price for your merchandise on print fal and how much markup you want to receive. They calculate the shipping and then you can customize your invoices, the tags on clothing, your confirmation emails, all to wrap your brand up. The only real problem I see with printfal is that you have to sell shirts at a pretty steep price in order to make any money. But if you want your fans to be able to get merchandised about your show, and you don't want to pay anything upfront, or you don't want to have a stock of product on hand, then I think printful is the right store for you. When it comes to design and what your show's merchandise should look like. That's a whole other episode. There are a ton of different ways you can go with that. Maybe we'll talk about that on a future show. That will do it for today's episode of Good Morning Podcasters. If you have questions for the show, I am very accessible. Email me Fuzz at good morningpod dot com. That's Fuzz if you zz at good morningpod dot com, or shoot me a DM on Twitter at GM Podcasters. New episodes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
