This happens me from time to time with individuals contacting me with a view to debating with me about some topic or other or being involved in a podcast.… Continue reading Build your own crowd

Not losing sight of the original purpose of my YouTube channel
It is easy for me to produce all sorts of video content for my YouTube channel. And I have now reached 27,000 subscribers on the channel having only recently reached 25,000. I am aware that much of the content I publish may have little or no benefit for my business, which is the whole purpose… Continue reading Not losing sight of the original purpose of my YouTube channel
Audio only podcasts?
I am pleasantly surprised by how well my audio only podcast, the Irish Law and Small Business Podcast, is doing on YouTube podcasts. When you think about it, however, you quickly realise that the type of video I make-the “talking head” type video-is ideal for audio only podcast episodes. It is not as if you… Continue reading Audio only podcasts?
Podcast growth one idea/observation/nugget at a time
I was in two minds a few weeks ago about having my podcast, the Irish Law and Small Business Podcast, on YouTube as an audio only podcast. But it is working out well and I am getting satisfactory listening figures and new subscribers from YouTube. The podcast is growing tremendously on Spotify, too, as I… Continue reading Podcast growth one idea/observation/nugget at a time
My YouTube channel has taken off (and I’m not sure why)

In the last 28 days, however, I have gained 1,600… Continue reading My YouTube channel has taken off (and I’m not sure why)

It has also been viewed by thousands of Instagram and Facebook account holders.… Continue reading My video about the Kyle Hayes case went
Podcasts on YouTube
Did you know that YouTube have got into podcasting in the last year or two? And not just video podcasts, but regular audio podcasts. I submit the RSS feed from my podcast, “The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast”, from Spotify/Anchor to YouTube. The results have been pleasantly surprising. Because YouTube seems to be finding… Continue reading Podcasts on YouTube
I used to care about Twitter/X
I used to care about Twitter, and how many followers I had, impressions per post, likes, mentions etc. Now? I could not care less. It has little or no value for me and, I suspect, most small business owners. The game has moved on significantly in the last few years and has changed. TikTok, Instagram,… Continue reading I used to care about Twitter/X
