The Productize Podcast

Weekly insights to help you launch, manage, or grow your productized service business.

The Productize Podcast was originally started by Brian Casel, but is currently hosted by me, James Sowers. I own Productize & Scale and operate a six figure podcast repurposing service called Castaway.

Each week, I share at least one insight from my experience or one interview with another owner of a productized service business. My goal is to equip you with all of the knowledge and resources you need to accelerate your growth.

Here are examples of the impact it's had on listeners:

"The Real Deal – Brian is The Godfather of productizing. If you run a service business, his podcast and content is a must. Changed the way I do business.”

Outstanding – Great podcast! Brian is always well prepared, a superior interviewer, getting right to the core questions, and providing tons of value.”

Mind = Blown – In a matter of weeks, Brian's approach completely reshaped how I think my service business. Love how deep he gets into the business models of his guests.”
