Description

Are you a book coach struggling to pick the perfect podcast topic to attract your ideal audience?

In this episode of Marketing for Book Coaches, we dive into how to align your podcast with your expertise—even if you haven’t written a book yet—and turn it into a powerful client-generating tool.

This is Part 2 of our podcasting series for book coaches. If you missed Part 1 on the technical setup of launching a podcast, catch up with Jen Rogers here.

To help us navigate topic selection, we’re joined by Kim Stewart, podcast coach for authors and host of The Book Marketing Mania. Kim shares her signature framework for identifying high-impact podcast topics that grow your audience and your coaching business. Get ready for a conversation packed with creative angles, niching strategies, and unexpected formats!

Key Takeaways:

• Podcasting Without a Book – How to use your coaching expertise (not just a book) as the foundation for your show.

• The "Capsule Podcast" Hack – A time-friendly way to test topics and attract clients with just 6–12 episodes.
• Beyond Solo Episodes – Why collaboration (think co-hosts or guest interviews) can amplify your reach.
