Quotes from Holly Pels:

“Podcasting is a channel that is very authentic. It’s two people having a conversation versus what a brand necessarily wants you to hear.”

“Content planning is really important when it comes to podcasting, but this is much richer, better, engaging content than anything.”

“Traffic is great but conversion is better.”

“If it seems to be resonating with our audience, we want to make sure that we’re giving them more.”
