Dave Bullis' Podcasting Smarter Tips:

• Don't underestimate the value of creating. Podcasting reignited Dave's creativite spark and got him writing again.

• Podcasting will expand your network by giving you a reason to connect with interesting and influential people by inviting them on your podcast.

• Everyone has a unique story based on their journey. Even when they come from the same background or industry.

• Instead of looking at podcast production as a ton of work, be happy that you get to do it and reap all its benefits.

• Find guests by having a contact form on your website, getting previous guest recommendations, and scouring social media.

• Make it easy for guests to share their episode by emailing them with links to the show. Also tag them on social media with a photo, and use their name as a hashtag.

• Dave monetized his show by a combination of crowdfunding, and Amazon as well as Audible Affiliate links.

• Dave's favorite productivity tool is Evernote.

• Have a specialized angle. The barriers to entry are so low, you are now in a war for eyeballs and ears. You need to stand out.
