## Resource

If you spend hours creating your podcast episodes and you still find that it's just not getting the downloads you feel it deserves, there are a few reasons why your listeners might not be clicking. And one of those reasons could be that the show notes just aren't enticing them to listen, and that's what we're going to be covering today. Your show notes, the description of each episode that shows below an episode in podcast platforms, is one of the few chances that you have to convince your listeners and new listeners that an episode is worth listening to, so it's important that we make the best use of them. So I'm going to go over exactly what should and shouldn't be included in your show notes, and how to structure them so that you can write your show notes easily, while ensuring they're working hard to convince people to listen. We cover - The six elements to include in your show notes if you want people to listen to your episodes. The biggest show notes mistakes to avoid. Is it worth using AI to write show notes? Plug-and-play scripts you can use to make your show notes writing easier. LEARN MORE Get the free show notes template to keep - https://claricast.com/shownotes .
