PODCAST CONSULTING

Build a Podcast That Fuels Your Business

Pod Mahal was created to help you build a passion-first, profitable brand.

When I started podcasting in 2016, I couldn’t afford Done-For-You services.

Even if I won the lottery, I didn’t want to rely on someone else.

I wanted to own my means of production.

After building a home studio, (at the time, for my shoebox-sized bedroom) I loved the freedom to record and publish my ideas at a moment’s notice.

Within a year, that podcast helped me land my dream job at a startup in the Bay Area training Fortune 100 executives, SWAT team, stunt actors, and professional athletes from all over the world.

There, I also produced and co-hosted Look Good Move Well with Marcus Filly that went on to do 1M+ downloads.

But back then in my bedroom, I spent many nights wishing I could soundboard with someone who “gets it”.

That’s why I’ve poured nearly a decade learning everything I could about podcasting workflows.

And you are why I founded Pod Mahal.

I’m the human in your corner when those YouTube tutorials just aren’t doing it.

"Misbah is worth every dollar and more. You have no idea how much finding Misbah means to me. He just keep finding new ways to prove I found the best, kindest, most hardworking and attentive to detail person I could have found. I wish he could have been there during the times I couldn’t even say out loud “I need to hire someone” because I was sooo afraid of trusting someone with my work, Misbah was the exact person I needed. He is the definition of 'IN YOUR CORNER'”

Let’s Talk About What’s Really Holding Your Podcast Back

I know exactly what’s going through your head right now:

“I should have started this forever ago.”

You’ve got the idea. You know your podcast would be amazing. But every time you sit down to actually make it happen, something stops you.

Maybe it’s staring at your webcam, trying to sound natural but feeling like a complete fraud.

Or maybe it’s another late-night fight with editing software, wondering how everyone else makes this look so easy.

The Surface Fears

  • “I’m not good with tech.”

  • “Wait, I need thumbnails?!”

  • “My home office isn’t camera-worthy.”

  • “The editing is taking forever.”

The Emotional Fears

  • “What if I run out of ideas?”

  • “What if I get tired of doing it?”

  • “What if no one cares what I have to say?”

  • “What if I look stupid?”

The Real Fear

You’re afraid to put in months of effort, spend thousands on equipment, and not see a return.

The podcast is what you’re most excited by. And you know it can help you build authority, leads, community, and so much more.

Yet time after time, your stomach drops watching competitors pump out awesome content while you’re still stuck in preparation mode.

Why Work With Me

I’ve been there. All of it.

That moment when you realize your lighting makes you look like you’re filming a hostage video.

The crushing feeling of recording for an hour only to realize your audio was messed up.

The endless cycle of “I’ll launch after…” excuses.

I’ve helped clients create profitable shows in all kinds of industries.

But most importantly, I’ve learned from more failures than most podcasters ever see.

I know every fear, every doubt, and every technical mountain you’re facing.

And I can’t wait to show you the view on the other side.

  • “If you are considering starting a podcast, rebranding a podcast, or rebooting an old podcast - look no further. In just one conversation, Misbah provided clarity around strategy, marketing, podcast recording/editing software based on MY podcast. He is current on all the latest offerings and what is the best fit for any style of podcast. You can waste a lot of time and money trying to do it on your own. Misbah will save you both. He will also remove any barriers that you have that keep you from actually launching your podcast. Reach out to him today, to get started! Oh and this comes from someone who already has over 100 podcast episodes, which I stopped a couple years ago. I needed some guidance, direction, and to get caught up in the world of podcasting. Best use of my time, and it will be for yours too!”
