Hello Besties! I’m back with another episode all about rebranding, which is something a lot of podcasters have to navigate as their podcasts evolve, including myself. Today’s guest also has first-hand experience. Angie Griffith started in the music industry as an artist manager before her pivot to podcasting and becoming the talent herself. Angie now hosts a podcast called Podfluencer Society, which recently underwent a rebrand. In this episode, she shares the strategy for how she relaunched her show — which included buying a billboard in downtown Nashville! — and, of course, her tips for executing a successful rebrand.

* Connect with Angie @theangiegriff on Twitter.

* Follow Angie @theangiegriffith and Podfluencer Society @podfluencersociety on Instagram.

* Listen to Podfluencer Society on your preferred podcast listening app.

Big thanks to the following Besties for their reviews. Make sure to check out their shows:

* Better Call Daddy is for people who love stories. Each episode, host Reena Friedman Watts will interview a person of interest, and her father will chime in with his advice afterwards. “My dad has been my guiding force my whole life, there's nothing that he doesn't know and I want to share that with the world.”

* 2 Lives is hosted and written by Laurel Morales. Stories of people who have faced darkness and how those moments transformed them. "We all have two lives. The second begins the moment we realize we have only one.”

* Secret Mom Hacks - Krista Dykes is someone who was previously terrified of childbirth, parenthood, and all that follows, but she's here to help you pull back the curtain on all of it. Her goal is that you’ll leave every episode feeling refreshed, inspired, and hopeful, knowing you’re not on this mom journey alone.
