Can Instagram Lives actually become podcast episodes? My guest Gilly did exactly that — and it changed everything for her business.
In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m sitting down with Gilly, founder of Gilly’s Organics and host of Everyday Rockstars, to talk about how she went from recording short 14-minute Instagram Live interviews for a local New Jersey magazine to launching a full podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify — and how that shift opened doors for her skincare business, her speaking career, and a brand new coaching community.
This is one of the most creative podcast origin stories I’ve come across, and if you’re a business owner who’s been creating content on social media and wondering whether podcasting is worth it, this conversation will give you the push (and the practical strategy) you need.
We also go deep on how to get better at podcast interviews, why you don’t need massive download numbers to see real ROI, and how podcasting can fuel offers you haven’t even launched yet.
