What are the secrets of big money sponsorship? Kane and Ash talk about the key things you need to know when speaking to a sponsor!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The sponsors you speak to need to value your audience. Think about what sponsor would have a product or service that would serve your audience the best?
• If you find a sponsor whose audience matches yours, the sponsor will value them and your audience will also value the ads you put out. You are providing value for both.
• If you find success with one sponsor, look for related searches to find more sponsors.
• To reach out to sponsors, you can approach them directly on their websites, LinkedIn or even find their head of marketing or sponsorships if they are a large company.
• It’s a mistake for you to negotiate a CPM deal for your first or early sponsorship, you’ll make much more money if you negotiate a fixed-term cost and use a baked-in ad so the sponsor gets a bigger ROI.
• You can repurpose your podcast content on other platforms (e.g TikTok, YouTube) and negotiate more money as your impressions are higher.
• It’s worth having less from a sponsor and instead building a long-term relationship with them.
