Episode 40: How To Make Money With Your Podcast With A Challenge

People are always asking How to make money with your podcast? One solution is to create a Challenge for your podcast audience.

A podcast challenge uses a specific goal and a deadline to focus your effort on achieving your goal.

In this episode of the Podcast By Friday show Bill Griggs and Kingsley Grant talk about how to use a Challenge as the key to making money with your podcast.

What do we mean by a Challenge?

A challenge is like a course or guided experience with a promise of a specific result at the end. http://thesavvycommunity.com/5-easy-steps-creating-first-viral-challenge/

Why would we want to do a challenge?

For support
To get email subscribers … (Example: Pat Flynn)
To build community
To achieve goals
To market products
To get exposure
To showcase expertise

When should we do or begin thinking about a challenge?

When we have a product we want others to know about and participate in
When we want to grow a current listing
When we want to increase participation within a community
When you want fast documented results
When you want to duplicate or maintain results

How do we go about doing a challenge and is there more than one way to do challenges?

Choose a topic
Set a date for the challenge and how long it will last
Outline the practices for each day/week that will add excitement; keep participants engaged.
