A while ago, I ran a podcast launch experiment.

When launching The Podcaster Lab, I tested a few things to see what a potential social reach of over 600,000 people would translate into in terms of podcast downloads.

I shut down all of my podcast marketing channels and created a campaign using a platform called Thunderclap.

On launch day, the show had a potential social reach of 685,102 people.

Curious to hear about the results of the podcast launch experiment?

Tune in to this episode to find out!
