Podcast launch + episode promotion
Launch a podcast + build the per-episode video promo system.
You're launching or growing a podcast. Each episode needs a promo strategy: highlight reels for social, full-episode YouTube, audiogram for IG. You need the production system.

11 steps. Each one tells you exactly what to do + drops you in the right place.
AVMint hands you off to the matching surface at every step — Stage 1 niche search, Stage 2 Blueprint creation, the editor, the marketing-plan generator, and so on. You follow 1 → 2 → 3 → done.
-
Set your profile
Add podcast name. Brand voice = the show's voice.
- Brand voice can be a short phrase: "measured, literary, no clickbait".
- Primary platforms drives the default video format suggestion.
In the app → Open Profile → -
Set your default video format
YouTube Podcast format for the main episodes. Per-episode you'll also generate Shorts + Reels from highlights.
In the app → Pick default format → -
Find your niche
Search around your subject area. AVMint returns 5 audience-evidenced niches with competition notes and revenue paths. The right niche is the single biggest predictor of whether the channel works.
- Use the topic you're passionate about + a market angle (e.g. "Bitcoin storytelling for retail investors").
- Depth doesn't have to be Deep Dive — Standard reveals the same 5 niches.
In the app → Search niches → -
Review and pick a niche
Open past searches, read each niche's audience evidence and competition notes, pick ONE. This is the most consequential decision in the whole process — the niche you pick determines who you reach and how you monetise.
In the app → Browse past searches → -
Create your Business Blueprint
Turn the chosen niche into a full kit — channel brief, content plan (30 calendar items), AI prompt starters, monetisation plan, ethical disclosures. This is the document everything downstream references.
- Click the niche you picked in Past Searches → "Create Full Blueprint".
- Pick the tier that matches your seriousness — Deep Dive is the most thorough.
In the app → Create Blueprint → -
Build the recurring show structure
Generate the YouTube Podcast format script. The output is a CONVERSATION PLAN (not a scripted narration) — cold-open brief, guest intro, 5-8 segments with host prompts, recurring closer.
In the app → Open Blueprint → -
Record episode 1
Single fixed camera, lav mics on host + guest, natural window light. Follow the conversation plan as a guide, not a script. Capture for clips throughout.
In the app → Mark recorded -
Edit your first video
Long-form upload. Add the chapter timestamps from the conversation plan into the YouTube description for auto-chapters.
- Use the format chip to confirm the per-item format before rendering.
- Editing as much as you like is free — only the render is charged.
In the app → Open editor → -
Generate the social clip pack
For each episode, generate 3-5 short clips (YouTube Shorts + Instagram Reel formats). Each clip pulls one moment from the conversation — peak insight, surprising claim, signature laugh.
In the app → Open Blueprint → -
Ship your first video
Drop the episode on YouTube + Spotify + Apple. Drip the social clips over the week post-launch. Each clip drives back to the full episode.
- Don't over-edit the AI copy — first videos teach you the platform; ship more, polish less.
In the app → Mark as shipped -
Plan the next 30 days
Podcast cadence: weekly or fortnightly. Consistency builds the show; gaps kill it.
- 2-3 ships per week for the first month — the algorithm needs cadence signal.
- Mark items "in progress" / "done" so you can see your own momentum.
In the app → Open calendar →
When you finish this journey, you'll have…
- A documented Business Blueprint covering your niche, content strategy and monetisation.
- Ready-to-publish video assets for the first 3+ items in the content calendar.
- A repeatable production system you can run on cadence (the journey teaches the path; the cadence is yours to keep).
- A marketing plan + (where relevant) a first ad campaign — paste-ready into the matching ads manager.
