Summary: <br> After 47 episodes we’re closing the book in another year of podcasting. We missed 5 episodes which is not bad for publishing every week. We run this podcast in addition to our careers and while being with our families. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> We’ve certainly enjoyed the process along the way and have learned a lot. There was plenty to learn since we’re still in the pandemic. <br> <br> <br> <br> This year we were able to top 525k all-time downloads of the podcast. We’re happy with the results since we focus on Clear To Send part-time, only utilizing social media to share our episodes. And with the reshares from our listeners, we’re super grateful for your support!<br> <br> <br> <br> The show is now surpassing 15k downloads per month. A big shift for the podcast since July 2020. Around this time we thought downloads would decrease due to people staying home and doing less traveling. <br> <br> <br> <br> But as we approach 2021, we want to ask for your help by <a href="https://cleartosend.net/survey" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">filling out our yearly listener survey</a>.

Aside from making course material, we also needed to learn how to distribute and sell the course. <br> <br> <br> <br>
