Episode 274 - What is the Difference Between a Podcast Influencer and a Podcast Thought Leader

Thought Leader Podcaster

A thought leader podcaster aims to provide in-depth knowledge, insights, and expertise within a specific niche or industry. Their primary goal is to educate, inform, and drive meaningful discussions around their area of expertise.

The advantages of being a thought leader podcaster include:

The disadvantages may include:

Influencer Podcaster

An influencer podcaster, on the other hand, focuses on building a large and engaged following through their personality, lifestyle, and relatability. Their primary goal is to entertain, inspire, and influence their audience's opinions and behaviors.

The advantages of being an influencer podcaster include:

The disadvantages may include:

Call to Action

For podcasters, it's essential to understand the distinction between these two approaches and align their content strategy accordingly. If your goal is to establish yourself as an authority in your field and share valuable knowledge, consider positioning yourself as a thought leader podcaster. However, if your strength lies in connecting with audiences through your personality and lifestyle, embracing the influencer approach may be more suitable.

Ultimately, the key is to identify your unique strengths, define your goals, and consistently deliver content that resonates with your target audience. Whichever path you choose, remain authentic, engage with your listeners, and continuously strive to provide value through your podcast.

Episode 273 - CO-HOST - Joel Bouchard - The Philosophy of Podcasting, PodMatch, Introverts and Engagement

About Joel Bouchard

I am a doctoral student in psychology, multi-instrumentalist record producer, author, painter, Army veteran, business leader, local government official, and fellow podcaster, who firmly believes that generalists have a place in society and can make contributions to human knowledge. While I may not be an expert in any one field, what I am is an expert learner who is well-versed in a wide array of areas. While I am philosophically minded and prefer big-picture conversations that knit together disparate concepts, I can speak to details on many topics, including music, education, psychology, the military, and much more.

Podcast - From Nowhere to Nothing

In this podcast, we look at philosophers, abstract ideas, concrete cultural issues, and everything in between with a down-to-earth demeanor and willingness to explore.

Episode 270 - CO-HOST - Sara Lohse - Be A Better Guest, Tell Better Stories and Launch Your Podcast With a Unique Listening Proposition

Looking to be a better guest? Want to tell a better story? Have you wanted to launch your podcast? Sara is here as an expert in the space - author, podcaster and brand specialist joins us here on The How To Podcast Series

I got my start in the creative department of an advertising agency, writing and developing award-winning marketing campaigns and proving that even retirement communities can benefit from a well-placed pun.

Taking an unexpected leap into personal finance, I got hired as the director of marketing for a financial advising firm and somehow convinced the owners to let me use my marketing budget to produce free financial literacy resources for the public. Soon after, I joined forces with the CEO to launch an educational media firm dedicated to spreading quality financial literacy books, articles, webinars, and podcasts. I even earned my certification as an Accredited Financial Counselor to further my own education and add some letters to my name.

I became the executive producer of a personal finance podcast and flew around the country to attend conferences, meet other creators, and learn everything I thought I already knew. With my guidance paired with the always lovable host, the show was picked up by a network, received more than 100,000 downloads, and sparked new conversations about topics that are more important than money.

Concurrently, I developed partnerships with other financial firms to coach their marketing teams and supplement their content creation and PR efforts. I have a roster of clients who trust me to develop their brand voice, write and publish under their names, revamp their marketing collateral, and get them booked on podcasts to spread their message.

Throughout these experiences, the biggest lesson that I learned is that I am the happiest version of myself when I am creating. Whether it’s producing a podcast, hosting a webinar, writing a book, or designing a graphic, I am fueled by creativity and a little too much caffeine. 

While my love for finance will never go away, I launched Favorite Daughter Media in 2022 in order to explore my own creativity and help other brands in the process.

Because the other big thing I learned: I’m good at it. My brain works differently than most people I’ve worked with and I’ve come to accept that as my superpower. I am me. I am a creator. And I’m about to be your Favorite Daughter.
