Episode Summary
We celebrate our 100th episode by giving listeners a behind-the-scenes look at our podcast journey, from inception to production challenges to our biggest wins.
• Started the podcast in January 2023 to help people we couldn't take on as clients
• Purchased a podcast course for $150 which provided crucial guidance on equipment, hosting, and editing
• Recording during tax season was challenging but strategic, as downloads are highest in the first half of the year
• Initially scripted episodes but became more comfortable with time, though still prepare notes for specific tax regulations
• Hired an editor (Kevin) which made continuing the podcast possible
• Our top three episodes: QuickBooks, paying kids from your business, and common startup mistakes
• Biggest wins include the personal finance series and S Corp series, which have helped listeners save thousands in taxes
• Moving to a bi-weekly schedule to make production more manageable
• Planning a second, more personal podcast focused on family life
Thanks for helping us reach 100 episodes! We'll continue providing tax and accounting wisdom every other week, focusing on the latest tax code changes and business strategies to help you save money.
