Yaun came to Podcast Movement from Finland, but he isn’t Finnish. He is actually from Switzerland, the Italian speaking part of that country. So when you hear his voice, it might throw you off.    Yann’s podcast journey started in 2013 when he took a break from music and listened to a podcast instead.    Started his first podcast, the jazz spotlight podcast, in 2014 and then realized he was getting more questions about podcasting than anything else.    So he started the Podcast Success Academy in 2017 and provides podcast services to compete with the ever-changing market.    In this interview, Yann delivers plenty of great podcast tips on both what to focus on and what not to.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
