Pastor Bob

Hello everyone, everywhere.

Pastor Bob

Pastor Bob Thibodeau here.

Pastor Bob

Welcome to the Faith Based Business podcast for today.

Pastor Bob

We're so blessed that you are joining us.

Pastor Bob

You know, you hear me talk a lot about Captivate fm, that's my podcast host.

Pastor Bob

And I've been involved with them really since before they started.

Pastor Bob

I met the one of the founders CEO Captivate Mark Asquith at a podcast convention and we had a chance about 10, 15 minutes, just talking.

Pastor Bob

I met him through John Lee Dumas, former cavalry officer, Praise God for the Cav.

Pastor Bob

But I was talking with him at the podcast conference, telling him what we were doing, and he said, I got to introduce you to Mark.

Pastor Bob

And he put me in touch with Mark as with at the conference and we talked for a while.

Pastor Bob

And long story short, I end up becoming a beta tester for them, I think round two beta tester for them before they even went public with their launch.

Pastor Bob

And I've been with them ever since.

Pastor Bob

And they are state of the art number one.

Pastor Bob

I mean, you know, the things they come up with to bless podcasters with is just magnificent.

Pastor Bob

And, and a lot of the podcast ratings, you know, that you can get on different places, Captivate is always top 10, usually top five.

Pastor Bob

And you know, some of the, the rating sources, when I'm reading their comments, they said the only reason they weren't rated number one is because, you know, they don't have a free program.

Pastor Bob

Well, I'm going to show you one of the reasons why today because you hear me talking a lot about them.

Pastor Bob

This is something that they institute about a year ago, and it's taken me a little while to actually get a chance to sit down and go over.

Pastor Bob

You know, I got multiple podcasts.

Pastor Bob

I got the Kingdom Crossroads podcast, the Faith Based Business podcast, the Revelation warning podcast, the 15 Minute Bible Walk podcast, and I got a couple more out there too, probably okay, including the Freedom Through Faith Ministries broadcast.

Pastor Bob

But the point I'm trying to make to you today is once I actually sit down and start working on some of the new things they come up with, I learn how simple it is and immediately I adapt it to all of my podcast episodes.

Pastor Bob

And I've been telling people about this, but I've never really done the video to show you how to do it and how simple it is, and that is adding either intro and outros to your podcast files or adding a commercial to the beginning or the end of your podcast file.

Pastor Bob

And I'm going to show you how to do that today and how simple it is.

Pastor Bob

I started to do this four or five days ago with the Kingdom Crossroads podcast.

Pastor Bob

And I literally uploaded the intro for the podcast to over 1, 000 episodes and about three minutes.

Pastor Bob

Okay, awesome, awesome, awesome.

Pastor Bob

And then I was going to go to the actual website and play an episode so you could hear it.

Pastor Bob

Well, little did I know, the server on my main website, the Kingdom Crossword Crossroads podcast website, flagged me as being a spammer because I was doing multiple, you know, over a thousand episodes in a matter of a couple minutes.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

I could.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

I had to contact support.

Pastor Bob

They had to check.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

They reset my stuff so I wasn't blocked from the website or the podcast.

Pastor Bob

But it's nice to know that, that that type of protections are in place.

Pastor Bob

Amen.

Pastor Bob

So I'm going to show you what I was doing there with my 15 minute Bible Walk podcast because there's only about 10, 12 episodes on that one, and it shouldn't flag anything when I do this for you, but I want to demonstrate for you how simple Captivate is to use in doing this sort of thing.

Pastor Bob

Okay?

Pastor Bob

And matter of fact, I'm gonna go through loading an entire episode.

Pastor Bob

How about that?

Pastor Bob

That's what I'm gonna do to you for you.

Pastor Bob

And I'm.

Pastor Bob

I'll.

Pastor Bob

I'll just do one that I already did.

Pastor Bob

I've already accomplished it.

Pastor Bob

I'll just repeat it here.

Pastor Bob

And then I'm going to show you how to load not just the episode and the show notes, how it's generated for you to get the intro outro added and.

Pastor Bob

Or a commercial, whatever you want to put in there.

Pastor Bob

Okay, so let me go ahead and share the screen here.

Pastor Bob

And you should be seeing my Captivate site here.

Pastor Bob

This is the 15 minute daily Bible Walk.

Pastor Bob

Let me just go over here and show you the podcast so you can see.

Pastor Bob

You know, when I'm saying I got multiple podcasts, I have multiple podcasts.

Pastor Bob

There's 1, 2, 3, 4, a Spanish one, five study and prayer.

Pastor Bob

That one's no longer active.

Pastor Bob

That's the 15 minute Bible Daily Walk is taking the place of that one.

Pastor Bob

I mean, look at all it.

Pastor Bob

Now, if you are with any other platform, any other platform, and you have this many podcasts, they're going to charge you a standard fee.

Pastor Bob

Let's say you're paying $12 a month.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

Every one of these will cost me $12 a month.

Pastor Bob

There's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, you know, 6.

Pastor Bob

Let's just go through here.

Pastor Bob

I'll cut them all up.

Pastor Bob

There's 13 of them here that I had at one time or that'd be 13 chart.

Pastor Bob

If I just cut off one 12 charges of 12 each is $144 a month.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

With Captivate, it's one charge, $19 a month.

Pastor Bob

And with that, $19 per month at least as of January 2025.

Pastor Bob

Okay, that' are here.

Pastor Bob

So if you're watching this a couple years from now, they might be different, but that $19 a month, you get everything I'm about to show you in this.

Pastor Bob

And we're going to go down here to the 15 minute daily Bible walk that's right here.

Pastor Bob

And I'm going to create a new episode and I'm just going to take this.

Pastor Bob

Let me go over to my files here because I already loaded them up.

Pastor Bob

I'm going to grab a file and I gotta log into my server here.

Pastor Bob

So I don't want to do it on camera for you.

Pastor Bob

Okay, let me go over here and here's what I'm gonna do.

Pastor Bob

I'm just gonna take this episode, this one's already in here.

Pastor Bob

I'm just gonna duplicate it and drag and drop.

Pastor Bob

Okay, so this will start to load now and once it gets loaded, I'm going to show you.

Pastor Bob

I go through and I put the title because of this podcast.

Pastor Bob

I put the title of the actual scriptures that we're studying.

Pastor Bob

But you can have, you can have your own titles.

Pastor Bob

Let's say you're, you know, your podcast, let's say the Kingdom Crossroads podcast.

Pastor Bob

And I'm interviewing John Smith, you know, and he's a computer expert.

Pastor Bob

I could have computer expert John Smith or you know, computers are awesome.

Pastor Bob

John Smith or John Smith interview, whatever you want to call it.

Pastor Bob

Okay, you can do that.

Pastor Bob

You can type it in right here or you can just tell them to generate an episode.

Pastor Bob

Right now I got one speaker, but if it was an interview that say two speakers and you can tell it generate the transcript.

Pastor Bob

Okay, now you can also.

Pastor Bob

I'm going to let this go through, but I'll show you where it's at.

Pastor Bob

You can also have a template for your show notes to put all the links to your website, your books or your training programs or whatever it is that, that you are doing, whatever it is that you are doing.

Pastor Bob

It can be already pre populated in your show notes.

Pastor Bob

And this will we have that for this podcast and you'll see that here and I'll show you where that's at.

Pastor Bob

There we go.

Pastor Bob

Okay, now it's already gone through, analyzed your transcript, analyzed the audio file you loaded and it's come up with Several different titles you can put in here.

Pastor Bob

So I'm just going to pick this one here.

Pastor Bob

I'll put that one here.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

And it's got a couple of summary or introductions in there for show notes.

Pastor Bob

You got this.

Pastor Bob

It's got suggestion two, what you can come up with here.

Pastor Bob

You can you just take one of these, whatever one you want.

Pastor Bob

I usually just take the summary, add it to the show notes, just like that.

Pastor Bob

And then I come down to the takeaways, add it to the show notes right there.

Pastor Bob

It'll break it up into chapters.

Pastor Bob

You can attach that to the file if you want as well.

Pastor Bob

Ad markers where you can insert dynamic ads.

Pastor Bob

They have the ability of doing that, which we're going to go over.

Pastor Bob

I'm going to come down here and add the SEO description to everything because that's what Apple iTunes likes.

Pastor Bob

You can take these keywords, copy and paste them and use them in your promotions on your social media and all that to help drive traffic to this.

Pastor Bob

Once we're done there, I'll close that.

Pastor Bob

Now what I usually do here is make a copy of this because I'm going to put.

Pastor Bob

I'll cut this out and I'm going to put the template in here.

Pastor Bob

For here I got this template.

Pastor Bob

Boom, there you go.

Pastor Bob

And then I'll put these on top so the templates at the bottom.

Pastor Bob

Now I always take.

Pastor Bob

And this is your preference.

Pastor Bob

This is not, you know, while it has to be done, this is just how I do it.

Pastor Bob

I usually take this title, put it here, title one, center it, boom, get a little space there.

Pastor Bob

And then I like going through and, and dividing it up a little bit so it's not all one big paragraph and just something long like that.

Pastor Bob

And then this one here, instead of H1, I put it H2.

Pastor Bob

That just helps SEO purposes.

Pastor Bob

And then this is the template that I included.

Pastor Bob

So the, you know, you sow a financial seed to the ministry here.

Pastor Bob

These are some amazing links of some sponsors we have.

Pastor Bob

Here's go listen to Kingdom Crossroads podcast Faith Business.

Pastor Bob

Pastor Bob

Do these, you know, different things that you want to do.

Pastor Bob

The, you know, add all this SEO and, and you know, whatever you want to do in here, you put chapters.

Pastor Bob

I didn't do that.

Pastor Bob

Advanced options, I mean they have everything in here.

Pastor Bob

You can set it as where it expires Maybe this is a, a training class you're doing and then it's for a week and then it's going to be done.

Pastor Bob

After that, it's over.

Pastor Bob

You set one, you want to expire, you could exclude it from the feed.

Pastor Bob

In other words, maybe it's a private episode that you're just going to share with friends.

Pastor Bob

So you got all these options in here that's available to you.

Pastor Bob

They're already published.

Pastor Bob

Pastor Bob

Pastor Bob

If you have an outro, you can do the same exact thing.

Pastor Bob

You can do the same exact thing.

Pastor Bob

And there we go.

Pastor Bob

They're there.

Pastor Bob

And I'm going to go now up here to try and get to over to the website, see if I can't play one faith based.

Pastor Bob

Oh, I'm sorry, this, the 15 minute Bible walk is it 15 minute Bible walk.

Pastor Bob

Okay, here's the website, here's the episode we just published.

Pastor Bob

It's already live and I'm gonna have to get the headset here and put it over top of the microphone because I can't figure out, you heard me say before, I'm not all that technically inclined on how to do everything.

Pastor Bob

We're going to play this for you.

Pastor Bob

Okay?

Pastor Bob

Here's the answer.

Speaker B

Bob Tibodo.

Speaker B

In this unique study, Pastor Bob takes you through the Bible just a few verses at a time.

Speaker B

From Genesis all the way through the book of the Revelation.

Speaker B

No preaching, just a simple Bible reading with examples and short explanations of the meaning behind the Scriptures.

Speaker B

Your 15 minute daily Bible walk is designed for those who are so busy it's hard for them to do a daily Bible study.

Speaker B

So Pastor Bob developed this program so you could study the Bible in just 15 minutes a day.

Speaker B

Now with today's scripture study, here's Pastor Bob Thibodeau.

Pastor Bob

Hello, everyone, everywhere.

Pastor Bob

Pastor Bob Thibodeau here.

Pastor Bob

Welcome to the 15 Minute Bible Walk today.

Pastor Bob

We're so blessed.

Pastor Bob

There you go.

Pastor Bob

All right.

Pastor Bob

So that's how simple it is.

Pastor Bob

It's already loaded, already done.

Pastor Bob

It's published and ready to go.

Pastor Bob

I didn't have to go on to my editing software back here on this computer.

Pastor Bob

Maybe I can stop share.

Pastor Bob

So you see what I'm talking about, Okay?

Pastor Bob

I got this computer.

Pastor Bob

This is just for editing.

Pastor Bob

That's the only thing I've used it for.

Pastor Bob

This thing is like 10 years old, okay?

Pastor Bob

And, but I, that's what I use it because I'm used to that editing software.

Pastor Bob

That's why I do that.

Pastor Bob

But now I hardly ever use this because I just come right over here and load this stuff, right?

Pastor Bob

It's awesome, it's great, and it's automatic.

Pastor Bob

And that's what makes this nice, is you can go ahead and get this all done in a matter of minutes.

Pastor Bob

Used to be I had to record it, put it on my main server, transfer it to this one, pull up the editing software, edit it, save it, put it back on the server, bring it back over here, and then load it to the podcast site, okay?

Pastor Bob

Because I had to add the intro, the outro with all the parts in between and all that stuff.

Pastor Bob

Had to do all that manually, had to generate my own SEO notes, my own show notes, all that.

Pastor Bob

You've seen this done in a matter of minutes, right?

Pastor Bob

So like I said, it's taking longer to explain than it does to do it.

Pastor Bob

So what I'm going to do.

Pastor Bob

I'm going to do one more and just not say anything.

Pastor Bob

I'm just going to go through and do it so you can see it.

Pastor Bob

All right, so we have here now on the clock.

Pastor Bob

I'm at 16:57.

Pastor Bob

So I'm going to start this at 17 minutes.

Pastor Bob

Ready, go.

Pastor Bob

It it.

Pastor Bob

It's now at 90 seconds.

Pastor Bob

90 seconds is gone since we started this.

Pastor Bob

And now you see it's already starting to generate there.

Pastor Bob

I'm just going to use this one as the title.

Pastor Bob

Just add that to show notes, takeaways.

Pastor Bob

I can add the links.

Pastor Bob

Already got that.

Pastor Bob

But we're going to show you there's that close that.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

And first I need to do this.

Pastor Bob

That down here.

Pastor Bob

If you click this prior to doing all that, you don't have to cut it and repaste it.

Pastor Bob

I forgot to do it.

Pastor Bob

Put here it it.

Pastor Bob

And now it's published.

Pastor Bob

No intro on there.

Pastor Bob

So I'm going to go ahead and add that and me a little slow because we're on Zoom right now.

Pastor Bob

Wait for it to catch up.

Pastor Bob

There we go.

Pastor Bob

Library as a zoom, it's taken longer than what it would normally.

Pastor Bob

I'd be usually be done right now.

Pastor Bob

There we go.

Pastor Bob

Do the intro.

Pastor Bob

I can also put an ad.

Pastor Bob

I'll save that for later.

Pastor Bob

We'll just do it in the intro now click this and then zoom is slowing this thing down because normally it's only about three minutes.

Pastor Bob

It would be five says this updates will be done.

Pastor Bob

There we go.

Pastor Bob

And there it is.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

So even with Zoom taking all that bandwidth, still five minutes or less.

Pastor Bob

And normally when I do this, it's three minutes or less for each episode.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

Prior to me starting this video, I did 1, 2, 3, 4, 4 of them in a matter of, gosh, 10 minutes.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

Because I had to load them one at a time.

Pastor Bob

But as far as doing the updates and all that, four, ten minutes tops.

Pastor Bob

Okay.

Pastor Bob

But I hope that blesses you.

Pastor Bob

I hope that shows you exactly, you know, how important it is to choose your host wisely, you know, because I don't want to do all this work.

Pastor Bob

I like having it do it for me.

Pastor Bob

And that's one of the reasons why I'm with Captivate and I pray that you'd be with Captivate too.

Pastor Bob

I'm going to leave the links down below for you.

Pastor Bob
