When it comes to making money from your podcast, have you ever been told that you need a giant audience with at least 5,000 downloads per episode before you can even think about monetizing?
In this episode, I break down a different way that works especially well for small audiences!
Over 5 years ago, I was in a particularly dark place with my hospitality business.
The early days of excitement had worn off and we were in the messy middle of trying to scale our business.
I felt lonely and defeated.
This was when I discovered the podcast, How I built this, hosted by Guy Raz.
The inspiring stories from his guests of how they had conquered their trials and tribulations gave me the hope I needed to get through mine.
I was so grateful for this free resource and was really glad Guy (and NPR) had the sponsorships to keep it going.
When I started my own podcast for my coaching business, I thought that this monetization model - well-funded established podcasts with giant followings - was the only one.
But I realized it wasn’t. And I figured out a way that is much quicker and more effective for experts who podcast.
It’s the monetization strategy I used to generate multiple six figures in revenue in my first year of podcasting.
And I’m excited to show it to you!
