About Podcast Launch Checklist
A podcast launch checklist covering the show concept, name, launch date, schedule, and the recording, editing, and uploading work before a first release.
What’s included
- Show concept and naming preparation
- Launch-date and schedule planning
- Recording, editing, and directory-upload checklist
How to use it in practice
Adapt the checklist to the host and directories you intend to use, then schedule a test episode before choosing a public launch date. Check the recording and upload process end to end. Assign responsibilities for the first few episodes so the plan covers a sustainable publishing routine as well as launch day.
Set it up in your workspace
- Open the original Notion Marketplace listing and add the template to your chosen workspace while signed in. Keep its example records until you understand how the pages connect.
- Adapt the checklist to the host and directories you intend to use, then schedule a test episode before choosing a public launch date.
- Try one complete example before adding a large backlog. Check that its views and any calculations show what you expect, then replace the sample content with your own.
Who it suits and what to consider
New podcasters who want a practical preparation list rather than a full recurring-production system. Platform instructions and submission requirements can change. Confirm them with the actual host or directory, and do not treat checklist completion as a guarantee of audience growth.
