  • Matt Ragland
    One of my go-to creator podcasts!
    Love the show and how the hosts and guests go deep on creator topics. I also appreciate how it’s not *just* an interview show. Fan of the segments like Mount Rushmore, Collab Corner, and Creator Mailbag. I never miss an episode!
  • B Hoskins
    Podcast is 🔥
    I recently found Copyblogger Podcast and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorites. Content is awesome. Caulk full of great ideas and creators. Definitely worth your time to listen.
  • Elen Harutyunyan
    The most actionable copywriting podcast out there
    Tim and Ethan, you guys rock! I can't believe how much useful information these guys are dropping on us every time. They must have some secret synergy that enables them both to be informative and helpful without making it feel like work or anything too overwhelming - but still worth listening all the way through for any business owner and literally anyone who wants actionable insights on content creation/copywriting!

    It’s the copywriting podcast you’ve been looking for
    I love listening to these dudes talk. The subjects Tim and Ethan talk about can run the gamut, but it always ties in with copy. They also highlight other awesome resources and leave links in the show notes so it’s easy to find context for what they’re discussing. I like that they cuss. I like that they cover subjects that make them vulnerable and aren’t afraid to share what they’ve learned from their failures. These dudes are honest, and it feels like listening to your two smartest friends share their ideas and somehow I become smarter just by being in the same room.

    A refreshing podcast that marries tactical advice with great insight.
    Tim and Ethan are a great combination and flow nicely together. They bring best practices in content marketing, copywriting, and business development for both online and offline businesses. They each have a unique perspective on business and blend it nicely on this podcast. Once you start listening, you will not want to stop. Be sure to have a notebook with you to take lots of notes from the actionable advice they share.

    Sorta want to keep it to myself
    Brilliant podcast. Ethan and Tim somehow manage to drop a ton of useful, actionable insights every time. I almost want to keep it to myself because I feel like I’m being let in on new secrets which each episode, but these guys deserve the kudos.

    My Favorite Marketing Podcast
    I listen to a few marketing/copywrite/e-business type podcast shows. I’m really picky because if I get bored easily, I listen less and kind of waste my time. Tim’s podcast show keeps me listening the entire time. I love every episode and am excited when I see new episodes come out. This guy is not only good at SEO, he’s great at podcasting and keeping my attention! I’ve learned a lot from this show. I’ve been reading the Copybligger blog since the early early early days. ~Hiking with Shawn

    Cheat code
    Tim and Ethan regularly drop knowledge that you simply can’t get elsewhere. I should have saved the $$$ I spent on college and just listened to their podcast. Better late than never!!!
  • malfoxley
    Great show!
    Tim, host of the Copyblogger podcast, highlights all aspects of digital marketing and more in this can’t miss podcast! The host and expert guests offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone that listens!

    Surface Level and Condescending at Times
    I gave about ten or twelve episodes a chance before unsubscribing. The podcast can definitely have some useful information, but often times it will stop just short of the juicy details and instead refer you to a link in the show notes for more details. It isn’t really helpful while driving or on a flight. I’m not sure the producers understand the strengths and weaknesses of podcasts in that regard. It’s possible that I came in during this show’s “NPR annual fundraiser”, but every other episode felt like they were trying to sell me on a class or conference. The worst instances were when they’d roll out manufactured scarcity and tell you to “buy now, because next week the price triples!” For me, it felt condescending and more like an MLM pitch than a real opportunity for professional development. If you’re trying to teach people how to sell, at least assume we’re savvy enough to know when we’re being sold.

    Insightful, entertaining and actionable
    Sonia and her talented guests talk all things marketing, giving you the tools you need to get hands-on with your business. The best part is these tools come from truly engaging individuals that have been where you are and want to see you succeed. Thanks so much for putting out such a spectacular show Sonia - keep up the great work!
  • 55y/oNovice
    Pragmatic and Artful
    I have listened to around 20 episodes over the last two months and have found them to be practical, clear and imbued with the experience of people who have been at copywriting a long time. Copyblogger is not the only place to learn about copywriting in the age of content marketing, but it is among the best. My thanks to Sonia and her fellow Rainmakers for sharing what they know.
  • MangleExpert
    (((why are you whispering?)))
    Seriously, do you record the show in a library? Please go outside. The content is solid, but I can only get halfway through an episode before the whispering gets so skin-crawly I have to turn it off.
  • Autumn Shultz
    Incredible!
    I love the insights that are provided in each episode. Sonia and her guests are so knowledgeable, and their tips are amazing and inspired. I would definitely recommend this for anyone involved in the business and marketing industry.
  • TinaAnn73
    Soothing
    This is a good podcast with great content and they are short and to the point. Bonus: my 3-month-old granddaughter was a getting a little bit cranky. I turned on this podcast and she went right to sleep!
  • ScribblingMadly in Maine
    The Power of Conversational Copy
    Few pods resonate like the ones that bring together people whose work you've admired for a long time. Recent shows that come to mind include Brian Clark and Dan Pink; and Ed Gandia and Joanna Weibe. Sonia's interview with Nick Usborne is the latest example. They each sell courses well worth the investment, and they share a philosophy that will serve you well. Get in on this episode now!
  • JobRetriever
    Very Intelligent and Educational
    Most marketers are honest liars. The worst part is wasting time listening, and then finding the b.s., or fluff nonsense. This podcast won’t waste your time. I highly recommend for marketers and writers.
  • B-x93
    Nice tone, very informative
    Always a pleasure to listen to this podcast.
  • MrNewsGuy
    Cherry-pick this resource for great content marketing advice
    As the title changed from The Lede to Copyblogger FM, I think this podcast became a little less useful overall. Definitely subscribe to keep up with the best content marketing advice and action steps available. But pick and choose as you desire to find the episodes that best meet your needs.
  • ncole78
    Advice with a real point of view
    Sonia practices what she preaches: she has a definite personality, one that I love listening to! I feel like she's speaking directly to me, wherever I happen to be when I'm listening, and that's the mark of a great communicator. I love that her experience as a writer means that her content is relevant not only for my podcasting efforts, but all my content creation. Great show!
  • Ehab Mohsen
    mindblowing
    this podcast is gold ... every episode.
  • jkh1
    I give up.
    The degree of blatant self-promotion and advertising has a once insightful show turning into a something that isn't worth listening to. I feel like I've subscribed to a podcast of commercials. P.S. - this review was brought to you by StudioPress sites.

    Weekly Hit of the Pink-Haired Marketing Diva, Sonia Simone
    A great recap of the weeks doings at Copyblogger. Sonia Simone always adds several things to make me go *aha* and yet get pushed into overwhelm. Still hoping for the return of The Pink-Haired Marketer podcast. One of the best voices of the Copyblogger brand.
  • InterviewValetKH
    Informative
    Sonia is so professional and easy to listen. It's a delight to tune in to each episode. Keep up the great episodes.
  • Andypanda5976
    Desperate For Content
    Sonia your show about Ryan's pitiful comments didn't deserve more attention. Damian was an odd ball but I grew to like him and he had better content. Pick up your game.
  • Doc Champagne
    Wow. Soooo much value here.
    I finally tuned in after hearing about Copyblogger FM from Chris Ducker and so glad I did. Don't listen to this unless you have paper and pencil in hand because you will be taking huge notes. Can't wait to dig into the other episodes I missed. Absolutely MUST listening for entrepreneurs. --Doc
  • cpeppler
    Keeps getting better
    I’ve been following Copyblogger for a couple years and love all the stuff they share out. The latest iteration into the Copyblogger.fm podcast is a continuation of the quality content that Rainmaker/Copyblogger has become know for. Add to that the intelligent (not too mention, silky smooth) voice of Sonia Simone, and I can’t wait to hear the next episodes! Thanks!
  • PamJR1981
    Love This!
    The first podcast I listened to was the one about being "weird," and I really identified with it. I can't wait to listen to more! I actually have my headphones in as I type this.
  • Onelfri
    Learn copywriting
    Great podcast to learn copywriting and everything blogging from successful internet marketers and entrepreneurs.
  • TrevorYannayon
    Jerod & Demian the Titans of Copy
    Jerod and Demian always make me laugh and more importantly I always learn something. The way they interact makes the podcast fun while they provide incredibly helpful content. Keep up the awesome! Trevor @trevoryannayon
  • Mdix1
    Love the new focus
    Nice work Damian and Jerod on the new show format. I got a lot more out of this than from previous episodes although I'm a devoted listener. Please stay the course with this direction since it adds a whole new level of customer centric focus. I felt you guys really had my back in this show with some killer tips on republishing old posts. Love it and look forward to the upcoming episodes.
  • @stevejacksonus
    Good Content
    Good stuff, but far too many "you know"s for my liking.
  • cjearly
    Great show!
    Demian and Jerod know how to host a good podcast. Their back and forth banter is perfect, and the information is invaluable.
  • Sonia E. Thompson
    Love listening to Jerod and Demian!
    I look forward to their banter and education every week!
  • DefiantWellness
    More High Quality listening from Copyblogger
    Copyblogger Media has busted wide open with their new Rainmaker network. The Lede is a cornerstone of this network. Jerod and Demian provide so much insight into the world of copywriting. I look forward to every episode.
  • Copywrite Matters
    One of my never-miss podcasts
    This is one of my favourite podcasts and I rarely let more than a few episodes bank up. They are short but incredibly useful with tips, advice and strategies about content marketing and copywriting. As a copywriter, I'm always picking up little tidbits I apply in my work. As a business owner, I get a lot of great marketing ideas from these two. And the guys sound like friends. I like that.

    It's Copyblogger So It Has To Be Good!
    It almost seems redundant to leave this review. With a name like CopyBlogger it has to be good! They just have a knack for producing actionable material wrapped in beautiful stories. Whether it's a blog post or any one of their amazing podcasts, you can be sure that you are getting exceptional material and all you have to do is put it into action. Thanks CopyBlogger.
  • CatheeP
    Love the Curation Series!
    Just got back from my morning walk and listening to third in the series of hows and whys of curating material to pass on in my blog. Jerod and Damion challenge me every time I listen to read more, record ideas, and work hard at my writing craft. Thanks for such useful content. I might add that I’m 71 - not your “average” listener.
  • Bryan Del Monte (Clickafy)
    Awesome Copyblogger Content
    This is a great podcast. I'm hoping you guys are going to keep it up. As an executive in marketing/advertising and a podcaster myself - there aren't lots of podcasts I like to listen to... this is one of them. Solid copywriting advice from pioneers in the field of online... keep it up.
  • RobertWilliger
    Practical no nonsense content marketing information
    As a reader of Copyblogger for many years was quite excited when they started a podcast and they have not let down. Each episode is short, focussed, and provides practical information that you can immediately put to use. If you do any sort of writing this is a must listen to.
  • supasubu
    Great Info!
    What more can you ask for? I am just starting out my blog. Invaluable content.
  • Former cook
    Great tips and great resources
    This cast definitely helps folks starting out trying to make the most out of each post. The resources mentioned for finding great common license images will definitely be put into use ASAP
  • Worth a Listen!
    The Lede from Copyblogger
    This series has been awesome! I am inspired to recommit to my writing and the show provides useful and specific techniques to put my new ideas into posts! Thank you.
  • bcNM
    Outstanding Advice
    I have learned a lot from these short interviews. I really appreciate how the host gets right to the point. I'm looking forward to the remainder of the 11 part series. I highly recommend this podcast.
  • officiallyneil
    Impressed.
    This is the first time I’ve given The Lede a listen (although I’ve been dancing around it for a while) and I’m impressed. Solid production quality and an insightful interview.
  • MarkGelfuso
    Helpful and to the point.
    If you are looking for ideas, inspiration and advice but only have limited time or a limited attention span then Copyblogger is the place for you. Straight to the point with great topics and smart people. Can’t ask for anymore.
  • Jorge O Lopez
    Listen to them ALL!
    An amazing podcast with great information. Something I listen to more then once. Helps me make better decisions for my small business.
  • Blake Stratton
    Thanks!
    I love Copyblogger, but it's often hard to find time to read everything I'd like to. This podcast allows me to learn from their expertise on the go.
