Big Podcast Playbook - Grow Your Podcast. Build Your Audience.

The March For Our Lives Rally took place on yesterday Washington, D.C. There were over 800 sister marches, one of which I attended in Nashville.

And regardless of which side of the gun issue you fall, there's a big lesson for your podcast here...

Are you leaving money on the table when it comes to sponsorship of your podcast? Probably. 

We all are.

But some people are really losing out when it comes to charging the maximum amount for this service. Hopefully that's not you.

If you want to make money via advertising or sponsorship, you need to listen to this episode. And if you don't want to make money in this way, the lesson still applies, so listen anyway.

There's a common mistake podcasters make when going for a big podcast. In fact, I'm adding to this problem in the way I pitch Big Podcast Daily.

When it comes to producing a big podcast, the sad truth is the majority of podcasters get caught up in the wrong stuff -- the "tricks" of podcasting.

Are there tricks to podcasting? Yes, I talk about them here. But that shouldn't be your main focus as a podcaster because "tricks" are almost never the reason podcasts go big.

Got an email from Gregory Byerline from Collected Clan about how he's using his podcast to bring people up and introduce new ideas to his audience. This is the opposite of what most podcasters focus on, which is bringing in experienced, "celebrity" guests whom they feel can help download numbers by bringing an audience with them.

Interviewing "celebrity guests" has certainly worked for some podcasters. But will it work for you?

More importantly, is this the route you want to pursue for your podcast?

That's what I'm talking about on this episode...

Most podcast episodes are boring. And even the "exciting" ones can get stale (and repel listeners) if done repeatedly.

Over the last three years, I've been working on a book on how to market yourself via podcasting. During this time, I've put together a lot of great resources for podcasters.

The "Audience Attraction Cheat Sheet" is the first one I'm releasing. This episode has more information about it as well as details on how you can get a free copy.

Sponsorship has a very real downside that few podcasters talk about. Yes, the money is great, but what's the true price?

In this episode, I talk about how I handle sponsors and share my thoughts on how to keep sponsors, listeners, and yourself happy.

Yesterday, I talked about something many podcasters do that can screw up their recorded interviews. In this episode, I talk about how doing the exact opposite can make those same interviews much more compelling.

There's something a lot of podcasters do without knowing it that will make your podcast sounds amateur. Or even worse, throw off the guests your interviewing and completely mess up the interviews you do.

It works great in face-to-face conversation, so you may not even know it's happening. But your listeners will know when they hear your episode.

I did this myself and have no idea it was happening. Only when my engineer/editor brought it to my attention did I know it was a problem.

This episode talks all about it...
