Evergreen Marketing, Simplified | Podcast Strategy, Thought Leadership & Sustainable Business
**TOP 3% GLOBALLY RANKED MARKETING PODCAST**
Are you a woman in business who built the business you thought you wanted… only to realize you're still chasing visibility, creating constant content, and wondering why success doesn't feel as fulfilling as you expected?
Maybe you're a coach, consultant, or service provider with a podcast who knows you're an expert—but your show isn't helping you become known, build thought leadership, or attract the opportunities you know you're capable of.
Or maybe you're tired of wondering why your podcast isn't getting discovered, growing, or charting?
If you're nodding your head, you're exactly who this podcast was created for!
The truth is, the businesses making the biggest impact today aren't built by the people creating the most content. They're built by the people who become known. When you're recognized as the expert people trust, opportunities find you, clients come to you, and business becomes more sustainable.
Your podcast shouldn't just be another piece of content. It should be the reason people know your name. That's exactly what this podcast is here to help you do.
Hi, I'm Jan Ditchfield. I launched my first podcast with a $25 microphone from Amazon and 15 downloads. Today, I host two chart-topping podcasts. I've built a multiple six-figure business powered by my podcast, and people regularly stop me in the grocery store to tell me they listen to my show.
But it wasn’t always that way. Like so many of the women I work with, I thought success meant being everywhere. More content. More platforms. More visibility. I was chasing attention instead of authority. Everything changed when I stopped treating my podcast like content and started treating it like my most valuable business asset.
That shift didn't just grow my business. It changed how people saw me. Today, opportunities come to me instead of me constantly chasing them, and I help women entrepreneurs, coaches, consultants, and service providers build that same kind of authority through podcast strategy, podcast SEO, and strategic podcast positioning.
Inside this show, you'll learn how to:
✨ Build thought leadership that positions you as the recognized expert in your field.
✨ Use podcast strategy and podcast SEO to grow a business podcast that gets discovered.
✨ Create binge-worthy episodes that help your podcast chart, build authority, and attract the right audience.
✨ Build a sustainable business by turning your podcast into your most valuable business asset.
I don't measure success by downloads. I measure it by whether your podcast helps you become known, your authority grows, and your business starts attracting opportunities instead of chasing them. The charting is simply the proof.
If you're ready to build a podcast that grows your authority, charts your show, and helps you build a business you're proud to own, hit play, my friend, and let's get to work.

022: Stu McLaren Spills the Secrets on Recurring Revenue
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
You care about making a difference—and building a business that actually lasts.
If you've ever wondered how to create predictable, recurring revenue without losing the heart behind why you started, you’re going to love this conversation.
Today, I’m joined by Stu McLaren, membership expert and co-founder of Membership.io, to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to build a sustainable, purpose-driven business using the power of memberships.
With over 16 years of experience helping entrepreneurs scale their income and impact, Stu shares the behind-the-scenes strategies that turn loyal audiences into thriving communities—without burning out or selling out.
If you're thinking about launching a membership, growing one, or just curious how to add more stability to your income, this episode is packed with actionable takeaways you can start using right away.
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:
✅ Why memberships are one of the smartest (and most sustainable) ways to grow a mission-driven business
✅ The mindset shift entrepreneurs need to make if they want recurring revenue without losing momentum or impact
✅ How to create a membership that actually serves your people—and keeps them coming back month after month
✅ Real-world lessons from Stu’s own journey building successful memberships (and what he'd do differently if he started again)
3 KEY TAKEAWAYS:
1️⃣ Predictable Profit Is Built, Not Hoped For
Memberships aren't just about monthly income—they're about building trust and community over time. If you focus on delivering real value consistently, revenue becomes a byproduct of impact.
2️⃣ Small Audiences Can Create Big Results
You don't need 100,000 followers to launch a profitable membership. Stu explains why depth over width wins every time when it comes to building a loyal, paying community.
3️⃣ Memberships Must Evolve with Your Members
What your audience needs today may not be what they need six months from now. Staying curious, flexible, and focused on member success is the key to sustainable growth.
