Listener Reviews

Thank you for creating helpful and free tutorials on how to start your podcast. I used those to start my podcast in 2016 and now it's my full-time job! While I don't make nearly what I used to make in my corporate career, I'm 100% happier. I am a more present husband, father and the work I'm doing actually makes a difference in thousands of lives. (And I don't take that 1,000 lightly ... I think of a room full of 1,000 people (like you taught me) and realize that these are REAL folks, not just numbers) Your serve-first mentality reminds me a lot of my father and I'm trying my best to follow in both of your footsteps. Thank you for all that you do.

Been listening to Pat for years now and I’m STILL learning meaningful and actionable things I put into place in my businesses and in my personal life! I’ve made some really good marketing decisions based on what he teaches. Love me some Pat Flynn!!

Pat is a brilliant host who has organized brilliant guests and seems genuinely invested in helping others with his knowledge.

Learning about your five tips truly resonates with my professional goals. Especially, "recognizing and remembering your why". Enjoyed the guests on the show as well!

Pat always delivers so much value! It’s clear he knows his stuff and is a genuine person!

I’ve listened to a few episodes and they are so inspiring. Really it shows people that anything is possible. The tone of the show takes on a “you can do this to” perspective that is just what you need to keep going towards your dreams!

I love the range of guests from small to large businesses to a good balance between the sexes. The experience shared is so useful - lots of secrets revealed. The 5% I'm not so keen on - a bit heavy reference to the family and how wonderful it is, how so many of the guests are best mates outside the show and so on. It can come across as cliquey and the family references are not so be interesting when you're single and working solo. Happy for others and happy to hear a little about it but it can make me feel like ' this isn't for me'. 95% great though and a HUGE thank you for the generous content.

Stumbled upon this podcast and found myself bing listening. I love the guests and the host. Great and inspiring information. I’m also glad that Pat says his ads in the beginning so the rest is uninterrupted listening. Thank you for this podcast gem! 🤩🙌🏽💕

SPI is my first-click, go-to podcast for online business resources. Pat’s podcast and his classes have been absolutely critical to helping me grow my business and podcast. Pat is so relatable and his content is top notch. He teaches me things I didn’t even know that I needed to think about! Thx for everything, Pat!

Thank you for this show.

I turned to SPI when I was starting my business for advice I could trust. It feels like Pat’s offerings (podcasts and classes) have grown with me. Highly recommended wherever you are in your entrepreneurial journey!

Love listening to Pat! I feel like he’s so down to earth and really cares about our success as we build whatever it is we’re working towards! Not scared to admit I’ve binged and listened to 96 episodes in the past month and 1/2 and always leave super inspired.

I stumbled across Pat’s show with the goal of learning some podcasting tips. That’s when I spotted his show on “Why people hate”. All I can say is I was super impressed with the vulnerability he showed and the humanity. You can always tell when someone is being real vs. when you are being sold a bag of goods. I loved the message - hurt people hurt people. Dr. John - The Men’s Self Help Podcast

Hi Pat! I know you’re taking a break from the Friday episodes but I just want to say they’re the BESSSSSTTTTTTTTTT, they’re more intimate and I feel we get to know you so much! So please don’t forget about them! 🥰 I love your podcast!

Pat, host of the Smart Passive Income podcast, highlights all aspects of blogging strategies and more in this can’t miss podcast! The host and expert guests offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone that listens!

The original episode with Shane & Jocelyn Sam’s was the prime catalyst for my wife and I to build a passive income stream that brings one adult income into our home every year. This has brought us the kind of freedom we are grateful for every day. Subsequent podcast episodes and “Will it Fly” have helped us continue to steer the ship. Thank you, Pat and team!

Thank you, Pat! I really enjoy the content you deliver, and the great interviews you conduct. Gary Youngblood

I’ve been listening to this podcast for 8 years and it’s still on the top of my list. Pat always delivers valuable info in his episodes. Also Pat is the best interviewer I’ve listened to. He has a gift for it. Thank you Pat for always giving💙

I love this podcast. As an entrepreneur its good to listen to podcast that shares such a wide range of experiences, knowledge and value to its listener. I had to binge listen after one episode because it was that good and filled with so much actionable steps to take.

I have been listening to Pat’s SPI podcast for over two years now and have learned so much from him and his journey. I am specially loving the new Friday episode format where Pat deep dives into a personal story to tackle mindset shifts that so many of us new entrepreneurs need. He is a great storyteller and I look forward to listening to many more episodes to come! Richa Founder and CEO Pinkcareers

Loved listening to your story of taking that first leap to being an enttrepreneur. It's always so cool to hear about the background of the success. Keep up the great work and the awesome show!

Pat, I’ve been listening to your podcast for over six years and I enjoy it today as much as I did the first time I heard you talk about your experiences as an online business “explorer” (you used to say “crash test dummy” but I like explorer better 😊). You provide so much useful content, but more importantly you give people hope and confidence that it is possible to build a successful business online ... and do it with integrity. Thank you for all the work you do to help others be successful too. For anyone thinking of subscribing to Pat’s podcast, do it. You’ll be glad you did.

I’ve been a huge fan of SPI for years, so this review is long overdue. Pat and this podcast has helped me launch my digital course business and start my own podcast - I’m forever grateful for whoever it was that originally recommended I listen, because it’s truly changed my life. Thanks so much! Keep up the solid work.

Pat, I’ve been listening to you since the dawn of podcast time. Can’t believe it’s taken me this long to leave a review. 10mins to leave a review in exchange for the untold hours you pour into each episode. It really should be compulsory. I finally just googled how to do it (leave a review) and here I am, encouraging every other listener to do the same. It’s the podcast equivalent to a round of applause. You, my friend, deserve a standing ovation. Thank you for your uber approachable, generous spirit. Listening to you makes me feel like you’re in my corner. A friend whose coaxing the best out of me. Who believes in me. And who also happens to have a wealth of knowledge and insight and a knack for making the most complex ideas and systems simple. This resource is a gold mine of inspiration, ideas and up-skilling opportunities. It never fails to open my mind and inspire me into action. Thanks for being such a legend in the field!
