Shanda Q1 2025 Updates

Hello Everyone 👋

We hope your year’s off to a great start for you! Over the past few months, we’ve been working hard on some exciting updates, and we thought it’d be useful to keep you in the loop on where we’re at, what’s new, and how we can be of service to you.

🎙 Publishing Just Got Way Easier

From the start, our goal has been simple: help people share their stories, ideas, and conversations with the world. A big part of that is making sure you can actually get your podcast in front of listeners—without fighting the tech.

With our new publishing feature, you can go from a raw recording to a published episode in just a few clicks. No complicated workflows. No unnecessary steps. Just fast, simple publishing.

So, who’s this for?
✅ Thought leaders who want to share insights without getting stuck in editing & post production.
✅ Entrepreneurs who record branded content (Zoom calls, interviews, etc.) and want to publish it quickly.
✅ Storytellers who need an easy way to get their message out into their communities.

It’s live now—so feel free to check it out. 🔗 Here’s how it works

💰 The Shanda Affiliate Program is Here

A lot of people have reached out saying they love using Shanda, and we figured—if you love it, why not get paid for it?

Our affiliate program is now open. If you know someone who wants to start a podcast, refer them and earn rewards. No fluff—just a simple way to share something cool and make some cash.

🚀 Let’s Chat—Book a 1-on-1

We’ve had a bunch of people reach out individually, saying they’re on the fence about starting a podcast and just need a little help. If that’s you, we’ve set up a simple way to book a one-on-one strategy call to help you get off the ground in 2025.
