Ep.24 - Nicolas Cole - The Why & How of Audience Building
Nicolas Cole is one of the most prolific writers on the internet.
He’s also an author who has written numerous books and an entrepreneur who has started and run several businesses including Ship30For30 – an online cohort-based educational business that has taught thousands of people to write online.
The focus of this conversation is how and why you might
want to consider building an audience online. 90+% of people online are in consumption mode only and potentially leaving a lot of opportunities on the table by not growing an audience themselves.
In this conversation, Cole and Greg dive into the details of audience building, including: how to pick a topic to write about, how to find time to do it, what platforms to publish on and even how AI might help you do all of this.
If you are someone who has a lot of ideas and value in your
head but has never translated that into content for others to consume – this episode IS FOR YOU.
