Now, there are a lot of apps available where you can record right on your phone and upload to your podcast page. That's what I did at the very beginning. You don't need fancy audio equipment. You don't need, you know, the the high-end things. I wouldn't recommend that. But by starting a podcast, there's so many different ways that you can go. You could have say in Santa Fe, your business was restaurants rest your restaurant owner. What you could do is you could actually invite other people in the industry to come on your show and that would help you cross-pollinate. They get to know about you. You'd get to know about them again. It's part of that giving where you're not asking the guests for anything, but you let them talk about themselves and so they have their audience. have your audience and this is how you start building the podcast and at this point I've got a very large download monthly download. You can get analytics from it and a very high retention rate where people want to listen to the entire podcast. So I've had some interest interesting guests on I've done a lot of Q &A podcasts and then you can also look to be on other people's podcasts as well. So there's a lot of different advantages to being to having a podcast because it's that audio channel and it's another funnel for you to start to get followers. One of the things I do with my podcasts is I sometimes they're very short. They're five minutes or they're three minutes and I say, hey everybody is doctor Sam and I clarity podcast. And you know, I have this great idea blah blah blah, and I'll talk about it for a few minutes. Well, that's our show for today. Thanks for tuning in until next time.
