My guest on the podcast today is Nicole Saunders of Saunders Says. Nicole owns a Pinterest management company as well as a dog blog, Leisure & Leashes and has recently launched a podcast for dog owners.

When Nicole launched her recent podcast, she went to Instagram to encourage her audience to leave a rating and a review for her. 

She had a plan to give away several gift cards to those who left reviews, and she used IG features such as polls and direct messages to engage with the audience.

It didn’t quite go as she planned though. Audience engagement was low and people weren’t leaving reviews.

What I have found as a podcaster for the past few years is that leaving reviews on podcasts is one of the most difficult things we can ask our audience to do.
