Takeaways:

• In the world of podcasting, having a solid media kit is apparently as useful as a chocolate teapot, so maybe just don’t bother with it.
• Justin Moore's book 'Sponsor Magnet' is the secret sauce for podcasters looking to snag sponsors without losing their minds.
• Podcasters are taught to monetize their audience, not just their podcast, which is a revelation that could make us all rich - or at least less broke.
• When pitching to sponsors, forget the cookie-cutter approach; make your pitch relevant to their current campaigns and watch the magic happen!
• Video content has a distinct edge over audio when it comes to attracting sponsorships, because brands love to reuse content like it’s a favorite pair of jeans.
• If you get feedback from your audience about a sponsored product, don’t just sweep it under the rug; share it with the brand to improve future campaigns.
• Learn the A.R.C.H. and R.O.P.E. strategies to get more money coming your way.
