How to Tell How Many People Subscribe To Your Podcast

Your Podcast Consultant: Podcast Tips To Avoid... ·

2020/11/01

How many subscribers does my podcast have? Just this morning, I've had three people email me this question this morning (and I heard it on my last coaching call). The answer is: you can't. There's no actual way to get that number. YouTube Vs Podcasting Everybody bring up subscriber counts because of YouTube. Realize YouTube is centralized. If you're watching YouTube, you're watching it on YouTube. Podcasting is different, you have an RSS feed (see the mechanics of podcasting). You can listen to the

I had one of my editing clients as me if I could edit an episode from a few months ago. In the episode, they had talked about a webinar that they were doing that month. Now that the webinar was long past, they felt it just didn't make any sense. That is how I got the idea for this episode.

Facebook ads" and while there were other decent suggestions, many of the suggestions were BUYING promotion (Facebook, Google Ads, etc). It wasn't until I left a comment that someone brought up making sure your content is good.

Charging Your Podcast Guest An Appearance Fee?

Your Podcast Consultant: Podcast Tips To Avoid... ·

2020/08/15

Supply and Demand The "law" of supply and demand is this: The more demand there is for a product, the more you can charge for it. There are many things that lead and boost demand, and that is outside the scope of today's show. In general, you are delivering value (or perceived value) If you raise the price more and more, the demand may go down (as it doesn't deliver as much value for the price). Cover Charge When I was a musician, some places I played would charge a "Cover Charge" which was a way

Think of it Like a Store Front One of my hobbies is music. I remember as a young child going into or walking by a music store, and there were a few different guitars in the front window and I was like, Wow, look at those guitars! Those are awesome. And then I walked through the door into the store, and there was wall to wall guitars and I was like, holy cow. Look at this.

ID3 tags were much more important back in 2005ish. All the portable media players and tools used ID3 tags. What is an ID3 Tag? An ID3 tags is information stored inside your mp3 file.

Can You Have TOO MUCH Voice Inflection?

2020/06/17

When you are podcasting you are talking to your audience, but you also have to realize there is a bit of "performance" mixed in. This is why you had people like Wolfman Jack and other people who were super high energy. Then you had people like Paul Harvey who had his own style, and really really long pauses. Some people get nervous thinking about this and get a little "sing songy" and end up accenting words in what some might feel are un-natural places. Today I play a clip of a newspaper that puts

Today I talk about Joe Rogan who just got a guesstimate $100 million dollars to make his show available exclusively on Spotify. Why did they buy Joe? Because he is one of the top (if not THE top podcast). So why is he so popular? Joe has a dialogue with his guest. He allows interesting people say interesting things. He is a really good listener.

Obsessing Over Apple Podcast Reviews

2020/05/13

People are hip to fake reviews. The general public is not that stupid when it comes to reviews. Review swaps result in really horrible reviews that are NOT helpful to the potential listener. A good review has details as to why something was good or bad. Reviews DO NOT help you move up the Apple Podcast Charts. Reviews are social proof - and that's it. When your audience isn't leaving you reviews, you might want to check on your content or your relationship with your audience. It takes courage to
