157: How to Start and Grow a Podcast with Maria Failla

We are chatting with fellow podcaster Maria Failla. Maria is a “Plant Killer Turned Plant Lady” on a mission to help everyone successfully care for plants and make the world a kinder and greener place. After learning to care for plants successfully and experiencing the exponential joy caring for plants brought to her life, she founded the Bloom and Grow Radio Podcast to learn alongside her listeners as she interviews experts in all aspects of plant care.

 

For any of our listeners who might be like “Okay cool… Love plants. Love her… but why are we talking about plants on a business podcast?” We wanted to bring Maria on the show today because her story is FASCINATING and is SO relatable to anyone who has a hobby they love, that they wanna turn into a side hustle or monetize something they’re passionate about.

 

In today’s episode, we chat with Maria all about her journey from a plant killer to plant lady, how she started her podcast, the nitty-gritty behind what we need to start a podcast, how to monetize and grow your show organically, how to get advertisers for your show, and SO much more. And if you’re a fellow plant lover but also notorious plant killer (like us oops) stay tuned for the end cause we do a Plant 101 corner with Maria and she gives some killer advice on how to keep plants alive.

 

So whether you’re a plant lover and wanna learn more about how to care for plants, a budding entrepreneur who wants to know how to creatively turn a passion of yours into a stream of revenue, OR you’re a person who wants to start a podcast one day and doesn’t know where to start Maria is your lady.
