Learn Podcast Insights From the ProsWe certainly hope you like hearing directly from us at Wavve, but we thought some of our successful customers have plenty more to share. We're starting a series where we feature pro podcasters and their stories, so that you can learn from the best in the business. Mari Wagner: How Ever Be Is An Integral Part of Her Marketing StrategyMari Wagner’s faith and lifestyle podcast, Ever Be, has built a large following covering wide-ranging topics like How to Make an Interfaith Marriage Work and What Every Woman Should Know in Her 20s. The podcast serves as part of a well-executed multi-pronged marketing approach for her brand, West Coast Catholic. There are several important touchpoints Wagner has skillfully created that work together to create brand consistency, drive traffic, cultivate an audience, and ultimately, spread her faith.
Wagner is a great example of an entrepreneur putting together a holistic approach to her brand, and using a podcast as a key component to that. Read our full interview with Wagner on the Wavve blog. "I wasn't planning on starting a business but here we are six years later and it’s full-time work for my husband and me. It was the best decision ever!"
