Unscrupulous actors are quick to offer—for a nominal fee—promises of helping you cut in line or sure-fire ways to accelerate your podcasting efforts. And you probably find those offers enticing, especially when the prevailing wisdom all sounds like “put in your time and maybe you’ll make it in a few years”.
No one wants to hear that. Especially when they also hear anecdotes of success shortcuts. Maybe The Olds just don’t know everything.
And we don’t. But some of us, like me, are particularly good at sniffing out bullshit. To that end, I've created a new section in the http://advancingpodcasting.xyz/ (Advancing Podcasting community) called Too Good To Be True. So the next time you encounter an offer, service, or piece of advice that seems… well, too good to be true - post it there.
