1
Lock niche + first 10 episode topics
Days 1-3
Niche too broad = no audience. Pick a specific question your show answers. Write 10 episode titles before recording anything.
2
Buy equipment + set up recording
Days 4-7
Rode SmartLav+ (Rs 4500), Audacity (free), foam panels for room. Total Rs 6-10K. Skip USB mics — they pick up too much room noise.
3
Record + edit episodes 1-3
Days 8-18
30-45 minute episodes. Edit out long pauses, ums, and mistakes. Use Descript free tier if Audacity is overwhelming.
4
Set up hosting + submit to directories
Days 19-22
Use Hubhopper (free, India-focused) or Spotify for Podcasters. Submit to Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music.
5
Launch with 3 episodes + promote
Days 23-30
Launch with at least 3 episodes — listeners binge when they discover you. Promote on Twitter, LinkedIn, niche subreddits, WhatsApp groups.
