Building A Podcast Kingdom with Rex Factor: Season 1 Ep. 3

27 minutes

This week on Podcasting Smarter, Jen talks to Graham Duke of the Rex Factor Podcast. Rex Factor is a light-hearted podcast reviewing all the kings and queens of England & Scotland. On each episode, Graham and Ali determine if the monarch has the mark of greatness, known as the Rex Factor!

It all started with a pub conversation and a friendly debate about great monarchs. That conversation is now a weekly, award winning, themed podcast with over a million downloads. Graham shares with us how they created a community as well as financial support for the show through their creative crowd funding efforts.

Podcasting Smarter Tips from Rex Factor:

Use your crowdfunding reward levels to create community. Rex Factor patrons become members of the special Privy Council and get access to premium episodes.

Your fans will want to financially support your show and you can do more for them with their funding.

Have fun with your audience. Rex Factor top level patrons get to commission an episode which becomes the premium content available only to the Privy Council.

They started an "insider" hashtag that fans use that references an episode about a monarch with a less than memorable mark in history. #RememberAed

Make sure you have good audio quality from the beginning.

Take the time to set up your website, determining your format, your work flow process, tone, and branding of your show before jumping into.
