The reason why most podcasters struggle with growth has nothing to do with their actual growth strategy.
It's actually because their premise and their audience definition are vague, confusing, and broken. They don't work.
Even if you have the juiciest most effective growth strategy, you're not going to grow if you don't have your premise and your audience definition locked in.
So, that's what we're going to focus on in today's episode.
I'll share two exercises to help you create a super specific audience profile and show premise.
By the end of the show, you'll be able to identify what makes your show totally unique, and refine your show's premise so that it actually HELPS you to grow your audience.

Today I'm answering a question that I get a lot:
How can entertainment-only podcasts grow their audience and monetize?
I'll admit— I usually focus this show on "how to" podcasts because they can be easier to grow and monetize.
However, that doesn't mean that the techniques I teach here can't still be applied to an entertainment-style show.
In fact, the strategies I teach here can be equally as effective for entertainment shows.
The main difference is HOW the tactics are applied and how you prioritize your time.
Today, I'm going to address the similarities and differences between business podcasts and entertainment podcasts.
By the end of the episode, you'll know exactly how to apply my strategies to your entertainment podcast.
And, you'll have a list of the things you need to prioritize for growth and monetization success.

One of the best parts about podcasting is that it's really easy to create one. Anyone can have a great podcast!
Don't get me wrong, it can take years to develop expert-level storytelling and interview skills.
BUT, that doesn't mean you can't still have an amazing show as a beginner.
What I've learned working with over 200 podcasters is that there are only two things that can make or break a podcast episode.
In this quick-hit GTS episode, I'll tell you what those things are and how you can have them– even if you're just starting out.

Did you know that you can permanently grow your podcast audience by 25% by releasing just ONE podcast episode? That's right. Just one.
BUT, you don't get that kind of growth from releasing an episode on your own podcast feed. Instead, you have to be a guest on someone else's podcast.
Don't just take it from me, however. Take it from this week's Grow The Show podcast guest, Angie Trueblood. She's the founder of The Podwise Group, and she's the host of the Go Pitch Yourself podcast.
Long story short, Angie is a podcast pitching expert— her entire job is all about getting people featured as guests on podcasts. Today, she's sharing all of her secrets with Grow The Show Listeners.

"Who is your dream podcast guest?" When I ask you that question, who comes to mind? My guess is that it's someone with a huge following who seems impossible to reach, right?

What is branding? If I were to ask you right now to give me an exact definition, could you do it? What about your podcast? How does branding affect that?
I don't know about you, but every time I hear somebody talking about branding, I'm less sure of what it means and how to do it.
That lack of clarity is going to change right now.
That's because this week's Grow The Show podcast guest is is Pia Silva.
Pia is the author of the book Badass Your Brand, she's a Forbes columnist, she's done a TED Talk, and she's a podcaster.

Let's be honest. Using Social media effectively as a podcast is HARD. For something that is SUPPOSED to be secondary and complimentary to your podcast, it oftentimes eats up all of your time and attention!
So, what are you supposed to do? How can you leverage social media to ENHANCE your podcast, and connect with your audience, WITHOUT having it suck up your time and destroy sanity?
Today on Grow The Show, we are talking about what NOT to do on social media. To help us do this, we've invited Arielle Nissenblatt onto the show to share her wisdom.
Arielle is the creator of the Earbuds Podcast Collective, the community manager at Squadcast, the cohost of the Sounds Profitable Ad Tech Applied Podcast, and a well-known podcast influencer. Today, Arielle is going to share how social media has carried her to podcast success.
You'll learn how a lot of that success comes from what she DOESN'T do on social media, how those things are what most podcasters are doing, and how you can stop doing those things and start doing the RIGHT things, right now.

Today on GTS we are going to make a bold claim: There is only one way to successfully monetize your show.
That's it. Just one.
It probably sounds crazy.
Heck, if I were you, I would think I sounded crazy.
Don't just take it from me, however.
Take it from hall-of-fame podcaster Dave Jackson. Dave is the founder of The School of Podcasting, he has been in the industry for over a decade, and this week, he joined me on Grow The Show to talk all about monetization.
He explained that there really is just one way to profit from your podcast.
After listening to the episode you'll know exactly what that is, and how you can start doing it TODAY.

29 | How to Calculate How Much Money You Can Make For Every Podcast Listener, With Gary Arndt
Join the Grow The Show Academy and get courses, coaching, community, and live masterclasses from me! Just $99/month, cancel anytime.
--
How much money does your podcast bring in for every new listener that you get? How much money can you reasonably spend to get even more listeners? Do you know the answers to those questions?
Whether or not you’ve monetized your show, there’s a chance you don’t know the answers to those questions. In either case, you should learn the answers because they’ll give you the clarity that you need to know to grow your podcast audience in the fastest and most fruitful way.
If you want your podcast to be a thriving business, you need to start thinking like a business owner, and we’ve recruited this week’s Grow The Show guest to help us adopt a business mindset.
Today, we are joined by world-famous travel blogger and podcaster Gary Arndt. He launched his daily podcast called Everything Everywhere towards the beginning of the 2020 pandemic. Today, the show has over one million downloads.
He's not only going to walk you through how you can calculate your current or future annual listener value, but he's also going to share which of his podcast growth strategies have been the most effective and which ones you can start using right away.

Join the Grow The Show Academy and get courses, coaching, community, and live masterclasses from me! Just $99/month, cancel anytime.
--
Have you ever noticed that people who don't have podcasts seem to think that podcasting is really easy? Here at Grow The Show, we like to say that making a podcast is easy, but making a good podcast is really hard. However, there is a reason people who don't know better think that what we do is effortless.
That's because the best podcasters make their shows sound smooth and natural. It sounds just like two people having a really good, interesting, and funny conversation. Even though it sounds effortless, it actually takes a ton of work to make a podcast episode sound completely natural.
Today, we’re joined by NPR producer and host Lauren Migaki who is going to teach us how to do just that. If you’re looking to produce a high-quality, natural-sounding podcast as efficiently as possible, then join us for this week’s episode of Grow The Show.

Are you using Facebook ads to grow your podcast? Should you be using Facebook ads to grow your podcast?

To do that, we’re going to be joined by Marie Nicola, a member of the Grow The Show community. Marie is a career online marketer and podcaster, who has achieved massive viral reach for her marketing clients, and who is about to help you do the same.

--
There was a question asked in the free grow the show Facebook group earlier this year that got me thinking, and the question was this: What are the core competencies that a podcast or needs to grow a show from?
After growing two shows myself interviewing dozens of other successful podcasters and helping thousands more via this podcast, we here at grow have a theory about the three baseline skills that you need to develop to have a successful podcast.
Today on Grow The Show, we are joined by Eric O’Keeffe, another full-time podcaster who has developed those three skills himself and who is here to share how he did it.
Eric is the creator and host of What If World, which is is a storytime show that’s regularly ranked among the top podcasts for kids. Today, Eric makes the leap from listener to guest to share with you how he built the three core skills needed to be a successful podcaster, what those skills exactly are, and how you will soon have them, too.

How easy is it for you to update your podcast website?
Do you even have a website for your podcast?
What does it look like?
When someone searches for your podcast on Google, does your podcast website show up first?
How much time and money do you spend on the design, upkeep, and maintenance of your podcast website?
What I've found is that most podcasters fall into one of two camps regarding their podcast website: They are either completely overwhelmed, have virtually no website presence, and don't even know the first place to start, Or, the opposite is true, and they've actually spent TOO MUCH TIME developing their website and SEO.
Whether you are in either of those camps or maybe you're somewhere in between, this episode of Grow The Show is going to help.
That's because today we're joined by Brenden Mulligan, the creator of PodPage, which is an easy podcast website creation platform kinda like Squarespace, but easier, and designed specifically for podcasters. Today, Brenden is here to set the record straight on these questions, and more, that continue to plague podcasters to this day: What should my website look like? Is my SEO good enough? Should I pay someone to build a website?

The Targeted Daily Engagement framework says that podcasters should be online for 15 minutes every day engaging with their dream listeners, dream guests, and dream sponsors. If you do this, then you are guaranteed to see your download numbers grow.
But, how do you know if you're engaging in the right ways with the right audience?
In this quick solo episode, Kevin shares how you can tell if your TDE is working for you, and how to adjust your approach if it isn't.

22 | How to Make Your Podcast Recording Setup Sound More Professional, With Rockwell Felder
Join the Grow The Show Academy and get courses, coaching, community, and live masterclasses from me! Just $99/month, cancel anytime.
--
How professional does your podcast sound?
What recording software do you use?
Do you record your podcast in a closet?
Should you upgrade your equipment?
What's the best mic, at the best price?
I get questions about these things from podcasters all the time.
And I haven't really answered them much, because, in most cases, podcasters need to focus more on their content and premise than their equipment.
But, it's true, sound quality is indeed important.
And, it's actually way easier - and cheaper! - than you think to have a really professional-sounding podcast.
In fact, when I recorded the first 30 episodes of Philly Who?, I did it with two $98 SM58 mics, that's it!
No studio, no $400 mic.
I literally just carried the two mics in my backpack and recorded the interviews in random conference rooms.
Yet, the most common feedback I got back then was how professional the show sounded.
So, how is it done?
How can you get top-notch recording quality, anywhere, on a budget?
Today Rockwell Felder is here to break down the answers.
Rockwell is the Co-Founder and CFO of Squadcast, a remote recording software platform for podcasters.
On this episode of Grow The Show, he is going to talk about how you can get crisp, high-quality podcast audio, without spending a fortune on complicated equipment or state-of-the-art studio time.
In fact, with just a few adjustments, and the right technique, you can have professional-sounding audio by the next time you sit down to record!

>> THE HANDS-DOWN BEST USB MICROPHONE: SHURE MV: https://growthe.show/mv
Want your podcast to sound as crisp and high-quality as mine does? Easy. Grab the brand-new Shure MV7.
This is the first-ever USB mic created by Shure. It's completely plug-and-play, out of the box, and is the only USB mic that gives you the same silky smooth sound as the Shure SM7B setup, at 1/3rd of the cost.
I literally cannot recommend this microphone enough. All of the convenience. Amazing price.
BY FAR the best bang for your buck.

>> THE BEST REMOTE INTERVIEW RECORDING SOFTWARE: SQUADCAST: https://growthe.show/squadcast
Squadcast is by far the best remote recording platform in the game. I use Squadcast to record my interviews for all of my podcasts, because it's the easiest platform for me and my guests to use, and it has the best audio quality.
Within weeks, Squadcast will be introducing video recording too.
Want to give it a go? Use this link to sign up: https://growthe.show/squadcast and you'll be able to try the platform for free for an entire interview!
>> THE BEST WEB PLAYER + TRANSCRIPTION EMBEDDER FOR YOUR WEBSITE: FUSEBOX

My favorite part? The transcript gets pasted in super easily, looks great, and the entire text of the episode counts for SEO.

08 | How to Monetize Your Podcast Today, with 30 Under 30 Podcast CEO Amanda McLoughlin
Join the Grow The Show Academy and get courses, coaching, community, and live masterclasses from me! Just $99/month, cancel anytime.
--
Amanda McLoughlin is the Founder and CEO of Multitude, a podcast collective based in New York City.
5 years ago, Amanda was working 9-to-5 for a finance company by day, and making a folklore podcast with her friend Julia Schifini on nights and weekends.
That podcast, Spirits, was monetized from Day one, and pretty soon Amanda and Julia were able to make podcasting their full-time job.
As Amanda and Julia's personal network of podcasters grew, they realized that they should all pool their resources together into a DIY podcast network. With that, the Multitude Podcast Collective was born.
This past December, Amanda was named by Forbes 30 Under 30 for her work monetizing podcasts and helping creators to grow, while still owning their work.
Today, she's going to teach you how she does it - and how you too can monetize your podcast right now.
