More specifically the lawn, although calling it a lawn is a stretch, it\u2019s more like a wildflower field. \n\nBut it caught my eye just how much the wildflowers (or weeds if you must) have grown along with the grass this past few weeks. The biggest clue was when the cat got lost in the wilderness. \n\nBut the conditions for growth in the back garden have been spectacular - rain and not too cold = an explosion of growth.\n\nAnd that got me thinking about how you can help your podcast grow. The good news is it doesn\u2019t involve rain. \n\nThere are of course really obvious ways you can boost the growth of your podcast \n\nBe consistent\nBe a guest/get guests\nDecent sound quality\nAdvertise\nUse social media\n\n\nBut I thought I\u2019d give you 5 ways you might not have considered to grow your podcast just like my back garden is growing.\n\nTeam up and collaborate\nHave a podcast listening party\nPut on a competition or giveaway\nCreate your own podcast panel\nMake your podcast accessible \nI'd love to hear your thoughts on growing your podcast as madly as the wildflower meadow that is my back garden!","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/284f0f27-6edc-4079-96a7-a69a49eef4c3/dF8MU2msokRv4ZafA1m9X65C.png"}
