Introducing Profitable Podcast School, your go-to place to launch, up-level, and scale a podcast that grows your audience, nurtures your community, and brings in the revenue you’ve always wanted!
Starting your podcast is one thing…making it profitable is another. If you’re like most podcasters I talk to, you’ve probably been…
Resentful of the spaces you’re creating in - you’re constantly churning out content, but don’t feel like people are binging it, being inspired by it, or taking action from it.
Disappointed - you are putting a TON of effort into your content, but you aren’t seeing the results that you’re dying to see.
Confused - why is the advice you’re seeing from all these big + popular creators not working for you? Are you the problem? (Spoiler alert: absolutely not!)
Burned out - your work is taking over your life because you’re constantly creating one-off content that doesn’t connect to your bigger business picture or result in new sales.
Perpetually behind - like you’re stuck in a constant game of catch-up with an endless to-do list.
Less-than - you think you’re not enough on your own, so you’re constantly creating MORE content with no strategy just because you think you have to…even though it doesn’t actually make you feel better.
Afraid to strategize - you’re afraid of “wasting time” on forming a strategy that may not work…but is what you’re doing now working? How much time have you ALREADY wasted dithering in doubt?
Aimless - you created this podcast, and you KNOW it has value, but you don’t know how to strategize, so you’re constantly throwing spaghetti at the wall…and nothing’s sticking.
Invisible - you’re creating so much, but no one is engaging, making you feel like you’re shouting into the void…or maybe you’re even beginning to believe your content doesn’t have the value you thought.
Guess what...
You’re not alone–and it’s not your fault.
These feelings aren’t a sign of failure on your part. They’re cropping up because you are missing the CRUCIAL piece of having a podcast that actually gets you the results you’re looking for…and no one ever took the time to tell you what it was.
That’s all about to change, because I’m here to hand you that missing piece.
The bottom line is: most podcasters aren’t creating a podcast that is the most profitable arm of their marketing strategy.
And that’s because you’ve been trying to piece together your podcast through Google searches and #inspiration from other entrepreneurs.
But here’s the truth: no matter where you are in your podcasting journey — whether you’re just getting started or you’re an experienced podcaster trying to monetize — you need a strategy that’s made FOR you and grows WITH you.
A strategy that takes your podcast from another thing in your content hamster wheel to a money-making machine.
It’s an intimidating word, right? But never fear–in the Profitable Podcast Membership, we’re not stopping until you can strategize effectively in your sleep.
Strategy is THE biggest piece of growing a profitable podcast. Without it, you’re never going to achieve the results you so deeply desire to see.
There’s a time and place for throwing spaghetti at the wall, but now is not the time, and your profitable podcast is not the place.
With this membership, we’re going to explain why it is utterly crucial to get INTENTIONAL about how and where you’re showing up on various platforms within your marketing strategy.
One reason you’re not seeing the conversions you want? You’re probably speaking to TOO MANY PEOPLE or TEACHING TOO MUCH.
Here at Profitable Podcast Productions, one of the biggest pieces of advice we impart to our clients is the importance of speaking to ONE rather than ALL–because trying to appeal to everyone is actually hurting your sales.
(Pssst: and our strategies don’t include teaching more or “giving away your best stuff for free”)
The Dreamer's Lounge Podcast
When I came to Tara, I really wanted to set up my podcast in a really strategic way. Podcasting is always something I wanted to do, but I wanted to make sure that I was doing it the right way and having the best approach for me. It was a no-brainer to get her brain on my ideas.
The entire experience was flawless and we got so much done. I can’t say enough good stuff about Tara. She knows her stuff and she’s the absolute go-to when it comes to podcast production, strategy, and everything behind it. It’s so evident that she wants every single person she works with to have an experience catered to them.
Growing your podcast into a profitable asset for your business is NOT impossible–whether you’re still figuring out where the mic actually plugs into your computer or you’ve been podcasting so long you could publish an episode in your SLEEP.
And odds are, there’s only ONE thing keeping you from seeing the results you want…
Strategy.
I’ve found that the number one thing that prevents entrepreneurs from taking their podcast to the next level (ya know, the one where people not only listen and engage with it… but buy from it) is lack of strategy and dependence on guest interviews so you can “grow your audience”.
If you’re skipping over strategically planning your podcast and just cranking out episodes when you feel like it, you’re doing your business a huge disservice.
That’s why inside Profitable Podcast School, we’re sharing how you can transform your approach to podcast planning and promotion from haphazard and hectic to holistic and high-converting.
If you haven’t launched your podcast yet and are worried this membership won’t be useful for you, think again! This course is included with every membership so that no matter what your current podcast or technical abilities are, you’re prepared to start a podcast from scratch in an easy, intentional, and strategic way. With this course, you will receive a step-by-step guide through learning how to…
If you want to build a business that isn't 100% reliant on social media and actively engages you with customers looking for the solutions you offer (AKA READY TO BUY) then leveraging SEO is invaluable.

In this bonus course you can go from "what is SEO" to ranking pro all by utilizing a podcast asset that is normally overlooked - your shownotes!
Energetics in business are EVERYTHING! And having a profitable podcast starts with the mindset + belief that it is a foundational part of your business's ecosystem.
Which is why we hired a Master NLP Practitioner to write a hypnotic meditation just for you! Plus in and breathe deep prior to recording episodes, brainstorming content, or even before knocking out all of your weekly podcast tasks.
We believe in you - now let's get your subconscious mind on board too!
When you pay in full you will also get a customized podcast audit directly from the Tara + The Profitable Podcast Team.
When we work with clients this is a must to kick off our partnership, identify opportunities for growth, and is the start of creating your profitable podcast plan.
Utilize this for your current show or prior/right after launching your brand new podcast! We will conduct our audit and send you a loom & breakdown of exactly what we found with suggestions to improve how your show works for your business!

I had a discovery call with a lady who is in my Facebook Group. We hopped on a Zoom call and I asked her how she heard about me. She said, "I found you on my Podcast app and it is my FAVORITE!" She signed up for my program!
She probably never would have heard about me and my program if I didn't have a podcast! I just wanted to say thank you!

"Thank you so much Tara Counterman! I found you on Pinterest and took your course and my podcast, The Hormone P.U.Z.Z.L.E Puzzle podcast is launching Sept 1 and we already got approval from Itunes. This course was exactly what I was looking for to help me go from "I want to do a podcast" to launch in about 8 days. Thank you so much!"

The Aligned Action Podcast
“I knew that I wanted my podcast to generate leads, but I didn't realize how to do it. I had been alternating topics in my episodes because I didn't want to bore my audience, but you showed me that that was the exact wrong approach.
I finally understand how to link the content of my episodes to what I'm selling.”
Hi. I’m Tara Counterman, creator of the Profitable Podcast School and CEO of the Profitable Podcast Company.
I believe your podcast is more than a platform: it’s an intimate way to connect with your community and make effortless, aligned sales in your business.
Podcasting is the center of everything we do here at the Profitable Podcast Company–not only in terms of how we serve our clients, but also in terms of how we promote, run, and streamline our own business.
There are SO many ways to leverage podcasting, and my team and I are constantly testing and exploring new strategies… and we’re beyond excited to share them with you with this membership.
Unlike a lot–and I mean a LOOOT–of other podcasting courses, I didn't just launch, our own podcast, decide that made us experts, and then create a course on podcasting. We have been doing this for 6 & 7-figure clients for years–in fact, we were pioneers in leveraging podcasts for business owners in a way that was highly strategic, intentional, and didn’t focus on just building brand awareness.
Our clients range from podcasters who have millions of downloads to those with "just" a few thousand–but thanks to the strategies we help them implement, the numbers don’t matter. Because the strategies taught inside the membership don’t rely on them.
Whether your voice is reaching millions of ears or you have a small but dedicated listener base, we help all podcasters leverage their podcast as a successful conversion platform.
And now, we’re here to help YOU achieve this, too.
Absolutely! Profitable Podcast School includes a 14-Day Podcast Launch Course that takes you step-by-step through the process of getting your podcast launched and live!
Yes! In fact, it’s more important for you to get this training immediately because you don’t have a team yet. You're busy being the #CEOMGwhydoIhavetodoeverythingmyself… you don’t have time to waste time on ineffective podcasting strategies (or trying to piece it together yourself).
Inside the membership, we’re teaching you how to implement a profitable podcast strategy in less time and with less work, so that you can focus on other areas of your biz. #winning!
Because of the downloadable nature of this program and resources and IP there are no refunds available.
While calls are not apart of this program Tara occasionally offers them as additional support. If you can't attend a bonus coaching call live there will always be a replay sent out & an opportunity to submit questions ahead of time.
No way! You don’t have to touch any work you’ve previously done… unless you want to :)
Entrepreneurship is a journey where we build off the work we’ve done in the past. The last thing I’m here to do is create more work for you. You already have a foundation — now it’s time to take it to a new level with the content you create from here on out.
You’ve got a BRILLIANT idea for a podcast, and no matter what you do, it just keeps itching at the back of your brain, waiting to be recorded…
The problem is, you have NO idea where to start.
What should you say in the first episode?
What tech do you need? H
ow do you get it onto Apple Podcasts, anyway?
Is it worth adding another task to your already overloaded to-do list?
Is your following even big enough for a podcast to be successful?
WHAT IF NO ONE LISTENS?
Inspiration, doubt spiral, ignore the itch, repeat.
It’s time to end the cycle. No matter what your brain tells you, the world DOES need to hear your voice…and we can help you get it out there!
Not only are you running this business all on your own–you’re also running everything else in your life. But mostly, it just feels like you’re running BEHIND.
The dishes haven’t been done all week. You’re down to your last clean (i.e. not spit up on, used as a tissue, coffee-stained, or smeared with unspeakable things…YET) shirt. One kid is missing a shoe. Another is begging to watch videos on your phone. The toddler is trying to eat out of the dog’s dish. The dog is trying to eat off the table. You were supposed to be out the door ten minutes ago…
And now you’re supposed to sit down and commit to a consistent podcasting strategy? Get real, right?
Listen to me… I have BEEN THERE. Heck, I AM THERE. On top of running two businesses, I’m raising (and homeschooling!) two little girls, chasing my big ol dog around, and producing my own podcast. The value of time? I deeply understand it.
I know that feeling following you around every day…through every task you do for a client, through every moment you spend trying to grow your business instead of being with your family, through every moment you spend with your family instead of growing your business…
You’re trying to give 100% of yourself to 100% of the things, and it’s just not happening. You feel like you’re giving every ounce of yourself to everyone and everything around you, and somehow, it’s just never enough. You have nothing left to give, but you feel that if you take your own foot off the gas and let someone else take something off your plate, the whole thing is going to fall apart.
I know the idea of adding even ONE MORE THING feels impossible. Maybe you have a podcast but don’t think you have the time for the strategic approach, or you simply don’t think you have the capacity to commit to creating one…
But the truth is, a profitable podcast can actually help ease some of the burdens you are being buried under.. Give me some of that weight, and I can show you exactly how to carry it.
Whether you have a team at your back ready to jump in and help you amplify your reach or you’re holding the mic one-handed, you’re a coach that KNOWS a podcast can be a part of your profitable marketing strategy.
When you started out you dreamed of hitting the top charts, thought advertisers would come knocking, and the brand deals would be endless. You’ve created an entirely new thing to your to list and you aren’t even 100% sure how it is impacting your business. You maybeeeee realized you don't just want a podcast that feels good for your ego millions of downloads, brand deals are cool and all, but this isn’t a popularity contest for you. You have a purpose-driven mission, and while you DO want to reach as many people as possible, it’s out of a deep desire to impact people in a positive way. You know that impact starts with one, and if you could just use this platform to connect with the next ONE person, over and over and over again, every goal on your vision board would be smashed!
Regardless of your download numbers, you know that you can make this a profitable part of your business strategy…but you are way too close to see the best way to do it. You value investing in a strategy and subject matter experts because we all thrive when we stay in our lane.
You have the drive and the passion to show up consistently on ANY platform, but you’re sick of playing the influencer game on Instagram and TikTok. And…are your dream high-ticket clients even there? I mean, they are definitely creating, but they are protective AF of their own personal boundaries and don’t fall victim to the time-taking scroll-hole.
You’re sick of giving away your best content for free trying to draw people in–you’re teaching and teaching and teaching, trying to show the value of being in one of your containers, but the conversions just aren’t happening. “They” say to give away all of your best stuff for free, but… isn’t there a saying about that? Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?
You don’t want to be an influencer. You want to effectively market your business, then get back to enjoying your freedom and serving the dream clients you were meant for.
Don’t let overwhelm and confusion keep you playing small. I’m here to help you through the entire podcast journey, every single step of the way.
The resources, training, and coaching inside this membership have helped countless entrepreneurs like you create profitable podcasts that have grown their businesses.
Why not you?
It’s time to put your doubt and fear on the backburner, friend. Your audience needs you. The world needs you.
I believe in you. Now it’s time for you to believe in yourself.
Simply choose the membership option that works best for you to join us inside The Profitable Podcast Membership, and let’s get your voice heard today.
