I'm joined by Jonathan Courtney to jam on how to  build an audience in 2025. We explore various tactics including finding your unique format, implementing consistent systems, and measuring progress against clear goals.Timestamps:00:00 - Intro01:58 - The ACP Framework04:06 - Step 1: Identify Who You're Creating For10:05 -  Step 2: Find Your Format19:43 -  Step 3: Build Systems That Stick24:52 - Step 4: Pick ONE Primary Goal28:08 - Where to Begin? The Reply Guy Strategy31:08 - WHY Building an Audience MattersKey Points:• ACP framework for building an audience in 2025: Audience (people passionate about your niche), Community (hardcore followers), and Product (what you sell)• The four-step playbook includes identifying your audience, finding your format, creating systems, and setting goals• Starting as a "reply guy" on platforms like X (Twitter) is recommended as a low-pressure way to begin building an audience• Building an audience serves as an "insurance policy" that provides options for future business opportunities1) The ACP Framework: Your FoundationA = Audience (people passionate about your topic)C = Community (your hardcore followers)P = Product (what you sell to them)The KEY insight: Start with audience FIRST, then community, then product.Why? Because audience-first gives you OPTIONS and CONFIDENCE when you launch.2) Step 1: Identify Who You're Creating ForDon't just create random content. Be strategic!• Focus on people interested in YOUR specific niche• Understand what they're NOT getting from others• Find your unique "sauce" (Greg gives away ALL his startup ideas)• If not getting engagement, start one level broader than your nicheExample: Jonathan's company wanted to be known for design sprints, but started with broader UX content to build audience first.3) Step 2: Find Your FormatYour format is HOW you deliver your content. This is CRUCIAL but often overlooked!• Test one format each business day• Look for formats OUTSIDE your niche (don't copy what's saturated)• Consider what's working platform-wide (short-form video in 2025)• Focus on what feels NATURAL (or you'll quit)• Test for 90 days and let data guide youRemember: Formats have lifecycles! What works today might not work in 6 months.4) Step 3: Build Systems That StickThe difference between creators who quit and those who succeed? SYSTEMS.System breakdown:• Build a "creative faucet" routine (what gets your ideas flowing?)• Create an ideas capture system (Greg uses Apple Notes)• Schedule weekly time to turn ideas into content• Be strategic with timing (post when your audience is active)5) Step 4: Pick ONE Primary GoalDon't try to do everything at once!• Choose ONE metric (100K followers? 25K email list? $1M in sales?)• Measure your formats against this goal every 90 days• Optimize for your goal, not vanity metrics• Remember: attention is SCARCE - build it as an assetThe BEST advice: Just start! Don't get stuck in analysis paralysis.6) Where to Begin? The Reply Guy StrategyFeeling overwhelmed? Start as a "reply guy" on X:• Less pressure than posting on your own profile• Lets you experiment with formats• Builds connections with established creators• Gives you confidence before going solo7) WHY Building an Audience MattersAn audience is your INSURANCE POLICY:• Gives you clarity into your niche• Creates a pool of potential customers/users• Provides job opportunities during recessions• Allows you to monetize when neededNotable Quotes:"The audience first approach gives you so many options, also gives you so much confidence when you release something and people actually use it." - JC"I think the number one reason why anyone should create an audience is to have something to fall back on, period. It's like an insurance policy." - GregWant more free ideas? I collect the best ideas from the pod and give them to you for free in a database.

You don't need a big list or a big audience when you have the correct aligned offer.Focus on serving the right people. If you're intentional with what you're putting into the marketplace and speaking to the right audience, you're going to have a higher conversion ratio, it's going to be easier to guide these people into a sale.So, take your time when it comes to list building. Be a little bit more careful and stay clear of all the shiny objects out there to build the vanity metric, the tricks on how to build huge followings because a lot of these leads won't be very high quality.Be intentional instead. Build an audience of the right people.

“If you've been thinking about starting a podcast, now is the perfect time.” - Sarah Heeter.  My podcast producer, Sarah Heeter, joined me for today's episode to talk about all things podcast. We talked about the benefits of podcasting and why starting a niche-specific podcast could be a valuable part of your audience-building strategy. Sarah knows a LOT about podcasts. After all, she helped me start this podcast and grow it to more than 200,000 downloads in 18 months and a ranking in the top 1.5% of podcasts globally. She's also a member of Launch Your Box.  If you're wondering if podcasts can be a valuable part of an audience-building strategy for subscription box owners, the answer is yes! I mentioned I have more than 200,000 episode downloads in only 18 months. Compare that to my social media audience. It has taken me years to grow my Facebook and IG followers to a combined 20,000. And if you're wondering if there's room for another podcast - for your podcast - the answer is also yes. Studies show more than half of people over 12 listen to podcasts and, on average, each listens to 7 podcasts!  There are several benefits to podcasts when it comes to connecting with your audience.  Podcasts meet people where they are. They lend themselves to being interrupted - it's easy to stop a podcast when needed and get right back to where you left off.  Podcasts allow listeners to multitask. They listen while driving, cleaning, exercising, and more.  A podcast mimics the intimacy of a phone call - you're talking to your audience for 25-40 minutes per week.  Unlike social media posts, reels, and videos, podcast episodes live forever!  It can be daunting to think about what you would talk to your audience about each week. Many people worry they'll run out of things to say. If you're serving your niche, and know your audience well, that shouldn't be a problem. Sarah suggests brainstorming a list of possible topics by asking yourself:  What keeps my ideal customer up at night?  What answers are they searching for on Google?  What is their support system like?  What is their value system?  What are their highest priorities?  Use what you learned about your ideal customer in my FREE 6 in 60 Workshop to help you get started.  Join me for this episode as Sarah shares so much knowledge about why subscription box owners should consider starting a podcast, how to decide what to talk about, and why it's very possible to DIY your podcast.  Important Links:  6 in 60 Workshop Find and follow Sarah Heeter:  Sarah Heeter on Instagram Sarah Heeter's Website   Join me in all the places:  Facebook Instagram Launch Your Box with Sarah Website    Are you ready for Launch Your Box?

You don't need a big list or a big audience when you have the correct aligned offer. Focus on serving the right people. If you're intentional with what you're putting into the marketplace and speaking to the right audience, you're going to have a higher conversion ratio, it's going to be easier to guide these people into a sale. So, take your time when it comes to list building. Be a little bit more careful and stay clear of all the shiny objects out there to build the vanity metric, the tricks on how to build huge followings because a lot of these leads won't be very high quality. Be intentional instead. Build an audience of the right people. Want to know how to positively influence your audience and guide them into a buying decision with less effort?
