Detailed Description

Podcast launches fail from missing pieces, RSS setup, cover art specs, episode buffer, that generic checklists skip. This planner starts with technical setup: RSS feed, hosting platform, and cover art at the exact required specs (3000x3000px) before you record anything, then has you record at least 3 episodes before launch so you have a consistent release cadence from day one, not a scramble after episode 1.

From there, sequence your first 3-5 episodes to build a clear reason for someone to subscribe, not just standalone topics, and submit your RSS feed to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other directories with enough lead time before your announced launch date.

A note from DaveWays

We've seen podcast launches stall for weeks over a cover art spec issue that could've been caught before recording started. The technical checklist and the content plan need to happen together, not one after the other, and that's exactly how this is sequenced.
