KEY TAKEAWAYS

• It is more than possible to get good sponsorship deals before you launch your podcast. There are various business models out there that use a similar approach, such as festivals and start-ups.
• Approach pitching to sponsors like a partnership, show them what you can offer to them and what they will be getting out of working with you.
• Podcasting advertising gives the highest return on spend -vs- any other type of advertising, more than TV, social media, and YouTube.
• If you have a course, mastermind, mentoring or anything information based, this works great to give as a launch offer. Even if you don’t have any of these things you can create a course or mentorship specifically as a subscribing bonus or prize.

BEST MOMENTS

"Anytime someone tells us you can’t monetise a podcast before you launch we laugh in their face”

“We’re basically a comedy show at this point”

“Podcast advertising sees the highest return on ad spend compared to any other advertising”

Ash and Kane talk about membership sites and the bonuses you can offer. They reveal the best bonus content you can create or give away to your members in different tiers and also talk about the positives of these and the situations in which they can work well.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you put ads and sponsors you can create a tier on your membership site to remove ads.
• Early release for content and pre-edited content are good bonuses you can offer.
• Q&A sessions with guests work well as a bonus if you can facilitate them.
• Any bonus and exclusive content is something members want.
• Challenges for your members help engagement as well as sign-ups. Think about a challenge that relates to the content and information you are selling.
• ‘Ask me anything’ sessions are popular with members but another plus point to these is that the content doesn’t need to be planned.
• You don’t have to create every piece of content for your site; you can get guests to as well, in the form of keynotes, lectures etc

BEST MOMENTS

"Any content where you’re selling information…you can make a challenge and that’s a really easy way to get people in [to your membership site]”

“Every week you can do an ‘ask me anything’, this is content you don’t need to plan”

“You want people to keep coming to your membership site and staying”

Should I use a business account or personal account for my business? In this episode, Ash and Kane talk about the downsides of business brands and why building your personal (or personality!) brand is far superior. They also discuss why launching a branded podcast isn’t always the marketing opportunity you think it is and what you can do instead!

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you are looking to market a company you are working for, launching a branded podcast is not a good idea. A better idea is to use a fraction of your ad budget to sponsor an existing show.
• People buy into personal brands, so it’s easier to build an audience.
• Podcasting allows you to create and craft your call to action, tailoring it specifically to your audience. This leads to a higher conversion rate with ads, sponsorship etc.

BEST MOMENTS

"Branded podcasts are stupid”

“[Sponsorship] is cheaper, quicker and easier than launching your own podcast”

“That’s the difference between someone converting or not, hearing that message and going ‘oh that’s for me, that makes sense’.”

“Business brands are dead, people don’t want to engage with business brands”
