Podfader

Howdy -- I'm Kyle Bondo, and this is Podfader! My ongoing podcast series for helping you survive the day-to-day struggle that comes with keeping a podcast going.

Episode #18Figuring out your target audience is one thing, but need to go further to what your one true listener needs, wants, and is asking you to create.

Personas A persona is one way to discover who your target audience is. However, personas only go so far. To really understand your audience, you need to find your target listener. What do they need, want, and are asking you to create that will help them with their specific problems. When you podcast, you need to be talking to that one listener -- your target listener -- and advocating for them. However, before you can do that, you have to do get very detailed.

Meet Teri I share my target listener Teri. Teri is more than just a mix of data and demographics. Teri is a struggling professional that wants to podcast but needs someone to fill in the tiny details that connects everything together. Who is YOUR Teri?

S1:E17 -- Every Podcast Needs a Good Name

TL:DR - Naming a podcast is incredibly difficult without a strategy for naming your podcast that can actually help you stand out from the competition.

Dog Names Would you name your dog "Dogfader"? Actually, that sounds like a great name for a dog! Maybe it could be an Old English Bulldog. Dogfader does sound like a Bulldog's name, especially after the first mile of any walk. Nothing fades faster than a Bulldog going uphill. But when it comes to names, I like names that work on multiple levels.

The Secret Name of your Podcast I share a story about the A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guin and how it matters to your naming quest.

Podcast Naming Strategy At-a-Glance

Your podcasting knowledge, your understanding of the production process, and what you know about what gear works and does not work for each level of a podcaster's journey. You can find someone to mentor in 1 of 3 ways:

• Mentor new podcasters online
• Speak at Conferences

S1:E13 -- Celebrate Your Podcasting Wins

TL:DR - Focus is Step Seven of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting and requires you to earn your right to be podcasting by first doing the work, celebrating your wins and then getting to stay podcasting by never forgetting what you have endured to get here.

• The Story of Badwater-135 finisher David Goggins
• Three ways to Reward your accomplishments
• Understanding that goals matter than comparisons to others

In 2007, Chief Petty Officer Special Operator (SEAL) David Goggins competed in the Badwater Ultramarathon. This is a running race that requires you to run 135 miles across Death Valley and up the side of Mount Whitney in California. In the end, David took 25 hours and 49 minutes to complete what is considered the most grueling event of its type in the world. It was good enough for third place, nearly four hours faster than his previous attempt the year before.

Asked what his secret to finishing the Badwater? He replied, "Give it everything you have. Don't leave anything behind." But that was just a small segment of the wisdom David can provide the average podcaster. His main philosophy is simple. As he puts it, "I'm not the best at anything. I'm not gifted. I'm just driven. You have to do the work. There is a journey -- a journey you don't see and nobody gets to have what they want without going on this journey."

How can you, as a podcaster learn from David's accomplishments?

Try following some of David's best advice:

1. You have to be uncommon among common people. 2. You have to suffer so that it tattoos that message on your brain. 3. I believe in patience because I know that's how you get something to grow. 4. It's all on you. It's the SELF-part -- total accountability -- that is big. 5. If you haven't endured then you're just blowing smoke.

When it comes to reflecting on your accomplishments and celebrating your achievements, David is very clear, "You have to do the work. It is the only way you CAN reflect back and understand what you've been through. Reflect back on what you've accomplished at each step of the journey is how you move forward. You cannot let yourself forget what you have been through. You cannot let yourself stop or slow down just because it's uncomfortable now. If you can get through these barriers and just gain 2%, 3% or 5% now? That will eventually become 40%, and 40% becomes 60%, that 60% become 70%, then 80%, then 90%. Then hopefully one day you will be near 100."

During this episode, I go into where David started his Badwater-135 journey, and it not where you think. This is why I think his story is something every podcaster can relate to.

If you learn anything from David Goggins' journey, then it should be this: "Earn your right to be here by doing the work. And you get to stay here by never forgetting what you have endured to get here."

What does David's story have to do with today's podcaster? Reflection.

It has everything to do with what you think of yourself, your podcast, and your relationship with your podcast. To do this, you first need a willingness to take a personal inventory of your progress and celebrate what you have accomplished. How do you do this? Reward yourself when you win. Rewarding yourself can be a useful tool in developing a new behavior and achieving your goals. Rewards should be:

• Draw Motivation from Small Achievements
• Achieve Big Reward Goals by Celebrating Milestone Rewards
• Build it into Your Trail and Error Process

And now you know.

S1:E12 -- Rebuild your motivation and get back to building better podcasts

TL:DR - Focus is Step Six of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting and requires you to rebuild your motivation and find your hunger for podcasting before you can truly get back to podcasting.

• What are your Motivations?
• What is your Why?
• Strategies for Rebuilding Your Motivation
• The only easy day was yesterday

Step Six of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting is Focus.

You need something to change when it comes to your motivation to podcast. Why? Ask yourself this question: Does the feeling of having to produce yet another podcast tapping your motivation? You know you love podcasting, but maybe it's become exhausting, frustrating and even painful to continue. You see your competitors still maintaining the same podcast production tempo they did in past years, yet you at a loss to how they can keep going at that pace. Now, you start finding yourself saying: "I don't want to record a podcast this month." "I just want to go ride my bike this weekend." "Why am I still building this podcasts?" What happened to your motivation? How do you recover from a slump like this and still manage to produce another season of podcasts? How do you not quit? Hopefully, this will give you the answer.

What are your Motivations? You might not truly dislike podcast production — at least not yet. But if you're having doubts about building new podcasts, and you're not doing anything about it, it can only get worse. So before it gets worse, you need to ask yourself some tough questions. You need a motivation intervention. You need a motive-vention! However, this is the good kind of intervention; the kind with healing in it. It requires you to dig down deep and find out what's going on in your head, starting with your need to understand your own intrinsic motivations.

What is your Why? Why do you build podcasts? This should be a simple question to answer. Your first answer might be "for the love of the medium." Or maybe you got into podcast promotion "to make money." You need money to make a living, but the time it takes to make your first real money in podcasting is long. Knowing there is the potential for good money after doing podcast promotion for five years or more, doesn't help you in year two. No. If love or money is not enough to keep you truly motivated, that what else drives you to build podcasts? Chances are it has something to do with an intrinsic motivation. This is the driver that pushes you into doing things worth doing. The three important intrinsic drivers for podcasters:

• Creativity: Creativity is the freedom you feel from being able to build podcasts without anyone telling you how you should do it.
• Mastery: Mastery is your capability to learn new disciplines and improve your skills.
• Purpose: your Purpose should not just be focused on the mechanics of building podcasts, but why you believe in building podcasts in the first place.

Strategies for Rebuilding Your Motivation If you're ready to focus on rebuilding your motivation, here are few steps you can take to get you back into the podcasting game:

• #1 – Stop Being Hard on Yourself: Successful people know that making small continuous improvements every day will be compounded over time and give them desirable results.
• #2 – Build a Better Why: You need to create a vision of how you see your future self.
• #3 – Focus on One Goal: Learning a new skill is an excellent goal, and a great way to keep from getting bored.
• #4 – Learn from Others: Spend some time appreciating the drive and determination others have for podcasting and explore how they overcame the challenges they faced on their journeys.
• #5 – Get Your Hunger Back: When you decide you're hungry enough to do it, keeping motivated won't be hard anymore.

The only easy day was yesterday There is no easy way to stay motivated. Motivation is a continual process that requires discipline. You will always need to force yourself to go through your motivation process to find your hunger again. Hence the need for the discipline to know when your motivation is lacking, and the hunger to actively do something about it.

Howdy -- I'm Kyle Bondo, and this is Podfader! My weekly podcast for helping you survive the day-to-day struggle that comes with keeping a podcast going.

S1:E11 -- What does it mean to commit?

TL:DR - Committing to your podcast requires you get disciplined about your goals if you have any chance of guarding against distractions.

• What it means to commit to your podcast
• Introduction to SMART Goals
• Big Podcasting Goals to consider
• Bubble Prioritization
• And now you know
• About the show

Step Five of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting is Commit.

When it comes to your podcast, what is your commitment to that podcast? Is it a hobby that can ebb and flow on a whim? Or is it a tool within your marketing strategy that needs to run like a German Train Schedule? The difference depends entirely on your drive to see your podcast success.

If you want this to work -- really work -- then you need to develop the discipline to see it through. So what does that mean when it comes to keeping your podcast going? You need to make a commitment to yourself and to your listeners that YOU will give your podcast a specific amount of time: Every day, every week, and every month -- for a specific length of time -- measured in the number of episodes or number of years. Whichever comes first.

The idea is to become dedicated to your podcasts production, and disciplined enough to execute that production. And you do this until you reach your milestone: the time you gave yourself before you would take the next hard look at what you had built, and what would come next.

If you think about the first four steps of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting, you've already decided your podcast is worth working on. You have also become honest with yourself about what you need to fix based on real feedback.

Finally, you've started to prioritize your Need to Fix issues. Now it is time to declare timeframe for when you will have fixes completed.

Introduction to SMART GoalsThen it's time to take those rough goals and turn them into SMART goals. Here is a quick guide to making sure you write down goals that actually mean something:

• S – Specific: Make each goal crispy, not mushy. Example: Produce one episode of my podcast every week.
• M – Measurable: Make each goal quantifiable so you know if you accomplished it or not. Example: I will release my podcast episodes every week on Monday at 9 AM.
• A – Actionable: Make each goal start with an action verb. Example: Run, finish, produce, direct, plan, promote, earn, etc.
• R – Realistic: Make each goal use common sense, but if you're not out of your comfort zone, it's not big enough. Example: I will produce 26 episodes this year.
• T – Time-bound: Make each goal have a deadline. Example: I will launch my new podcast on September 1st, 2018.

Big Podcasting Goals to ConsiderIf you don't know what you should fix, or your Need to have and Nice to have listed is still a bit fuzzy, consider the following goals:

• #1 – Growth Planning: This is where you see your podcast promotion going in the next year, and possibly in the next three years. Example: The number of episodes you want to promote above the following year.
• #2 – Podcast Offerings: Decide if you current podcast is the kind of podcast you plan on offering your listeners. Example: This would include what message or niche your podcast you will focus on.
• #3 – Financial Targets: These are the financial numbers you need to hit to make a profit with your podcast. Example: This would include monetization goals that reflect your break-even point, profit margins, and sales goals.

Bubble PrioritizationBy forcing the MOST IMPORTANT goals to the surface is like forcing your divers to come up for air. The diver that needs it the most go to the surface first.

The process is simple. First, compare the first two goals on your list. Of those two goals, decide which is more important to be accomplished now rather than later. The one that you pick is now #1. Compare that #1 goal with the NEXT GOAL on your list. Repeat your decision.

Out of these two goals, which is more important? Either you continue to support your decision that #1 is still #1, or the new goal replaces it and become the new #1. Continue to do this until you have firmly established which goal is #1.

Leave #1 alone and focus on the remain list by moving to goal #2. Repeat the same process with all the goals below #2 the same way you did with deciding goal #1.

You can end this loop when:

• You've prioritized the entire list
• Only decided the Top 2 or Top 3

Now your goals are prioritized.

The Five Principles By leveraging our five (5) Goal Setting Principles as follows:

• #1 – Thinking SMART — Visualizing and creating goals that will provide value when completed.
• #2 – Writing Them Down — Writing your goals down will improve your chances of accomplishing them.
• #3 – Keeping Them Simple — Don't complicate your life by setting more goals than you can manage.
• #4 – Dedicating to Them Daily — Placing them somewhere you can read them every day will also improve your chances of accomplishing them.
• #5 – Sharing Them Strategically — Only share your goals with those people you feel are committed to helping you accomplish each one.

Setting goals are extremely important in keeping yourself focused throughout the year. It will also provide you with meaning and a sense of accomplishment as you move closer to completing each one.

Stop wandering through the forest without a map and compass. Your annual goals ARE your map and compass. Make this year the first of many goal-oriented years to come!

S1:E10 -- What is insight?

Step Four of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting is Insight.

Insight is defined as deep understanding. The capacity to gain an accurate and deep intuitive understanding of a person or thing. I'll tell what is NOT accurate or deep understanding -- winging it.

Principles of Podcast Production First and foremost, you need to understand what a principle is. It is a fancy term for rules. Only these rules are the kind of rules you don't break no matter what. They are the foundation you base your entire podcast on and the antithesis of winging it. For me, they start with three easy-to-remember rules:

• Stay simple
• Start small
• Show value

Step 1. Two Column Drill The first of three principles is Stay Simple. To embrace that principle, you are going to put every part of your episode into one of two columns. Column one is your nice-to-have list, while column two is your need-to-have list. Think of every little part of your podcast and put it into the column you think it belongs. This drill requires three separate lists:

• Gear List: Gear required to record your podcast
• Format List: How your show is logically organized
• Content List: How your looks using units of time

Step 2. First Draft Evaluation Now take a look at your list. What did you discover about your podcast? What is in your need-to-have columns versus what is in your nice-to-have columns? Were you honest? Take some more time and see what you might have in one column, that should really be in the other and make some edits.

Step 3. Reality Check Honesty time. It's time to have a "get real with yourself" moment and edit your list a third time. This is the third principle in play -- Show Value. If you took the advice from Episode #009 about getting real feedback, then you already have a list of changes that you could be making to improve your podcast. So take a deep breath, think about your budget, and take some time to edit your list one more time.

Step 4. Set Priorities Now we will combine the three principles by working on a new list: A Priority List. This is a list of what we will fix, change, or improve in order of their importance. When you know what you must do to make the foundation of your podcast work — the parts you cannot live without — you begin to build a valuable framework for what will always be needed in every podcast you produce.

Step 5. Dream Sheet The final step in this exercise is to figure out what nice-to-have elements can be worked back in. Now with all the MUST DO and NEEDS identified, we can finally revisit the nice-to-have list, and find out what you would pick first if you could pick anything off it.

Apply Your Principles If you consistently apply these principles when building each of your podcast episodes, you should always have control over what is needed for each one, and what is just nice to have.

And now you know.

S1:E9 -- How Clear is Your Clarity?

Step Three of the Nine Steps Back to Podcasting is Clarity.

What does it mean to you? Clarity is defined as:

• The quality of being clear.
• The quality of coherence and intelligibility.
• The quality of being easy to see or hear; sharpness of image or sound.

These are the elements of your podcast that Clarity tries to highlight. And why this step centers on deciding WHAT you need to improve if you are to learn a better way to produce your podcast. You cannot fix a podcast you never start, but you also cannot fix a podcast that YOU do not know is broken.

Why is it broken?

Podcasting is an audio medium of transforming information to other people. Because this requires our ears and our brains to be understood, there are three (3) distinct Clarity characteristics you need to have:

• Clarity of Speech
• Clarity of Delivery
• Clarity of Message

Three Kinds of Feedback

How do you know when you podcast is broken when it comes to either Clarity of Speech or Clarity of Delivery?

You have to ask.

Or to use another term -- You have to get feedback. But not just any kind of feedback, you have to get honest feedback using one or all of these methods:

• Online Surveys
• The Circle of Trust
• Professional Feedback

1. Online Surveys

Ask other podcasters. Sometimes, it's good to hear it from other people who create podcasts too.

2. The Circle of Trust

The "circle of trust" process involves live airings of your podcast in front of real people. At a podcaster meeting or meetup, instead of a speaker, have each person in attendance introduce their podcast, then play 5-minutes of their most recent episode for all to hear.

It is a feedback method only for the podcasters that are GETTING REAL with themselves and their skills. Because after that 5-minutes, your podcast goes off and the room starts to give you feedback based on what they just heard.

What you get next is some of the most immediate and honest feedback you will ever get from complete strangers.

3. Professional Feedback

The final feedback method involves hiring professionals. Instead of a meetup or event, you can spend a little money and have professionals in the industry review your podcast.

Dave Jackson of the SchoolofPodcasting.com does for his podcast called Podcast Rodeo. For Five-bucks, Dave will listen to your the first few minutes of your show and see if he can "hang on" to it (which means he likes it), or get thrown off (which means it has problems).

You can find more about Podcast Rodeo and how to have your podcast reviewed here:

https://podcastrodeoshow.wordpress.com/ https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/podcast-rodeo/id1214744628?mt=2

That is enough first impression feedback to know if you are on the right track.

If that is not enough feedback, you can also have your entire show reviewed by Davenutkson and Erik K. John over at the Podcast Review Show. This is a full nuts-to-bolts review of your show for $99. They review can even become part of the show where both Dave and Erik share their findings with you as part of their show.

You can find more about the Podcast Review Show here:

With these kinds of feedback, the price you pay for honesty might be pennies compared to the value of their revelations.
