Podcast appearances and mentions of dan franks

So… what is a podcast in 2025? As video takes over and platforms tighten their grip, the medium faces an identity crisis. In our final episode, we examine what's at stake and where podcasting might go next. You'll hear from industry leaders like Guy Raz, James Cridland, Dan Franks, and AJ Feliciano as they wrestle with the evolving definition of podcasting, the tension between independence and algorithms, and the future of audio-first storytelling. Because the word “podcast” might be up for debate—but its power is not.For the most comprehensive picture of what podcasting means to consumers today, check out our accompanying white paper with Edison Research, “What is a Podcast?: Preserving its Essence, Structuring for Expansion,” featuring quantitative and qualitative data compiled from over 4,000 Americans.Download the White Paper Here: https://oxfordroad.com/whats-a-podcastAnd if you're really invested in the future of podcasting, there's something you can do today.

In this episode of the Venue RX podcast, our host Jonathan sits down with Dan Franks, owner of Event 1013, an event venue in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Dan shares his experience of purchasing and running the venue, including the challenges of evaluating the value of the business and property separately, the importance of having a "wow factor" in a venue, and the challenges of balancing risk and reward when booking events. Dan also discusses their marketing strategy, including experimenting with different platforms and using text message marketing. Dan provides valuable insights into the challenges and rewards of owning and operating an event venue. About Our Guest:  Dan Franks is a CPA by trade, and spent the first 8 years of his career in public accounting. He started in the Big Four with KPMG, but quickly realized his true passion was working with small business owners and entrepreneurs, and helping them get their financial systems in order.  His passion for working in financial systems crossed paths with his love for podcasting, which led him out of the public sector and into the private one, as he became the Business Manager for the podcasting company Midroll / Stitcher. He worked alongside the CFO, helping with all aspects of the business side of the company. As all of that  was going on, he also helped co-found and launch Podcast Movement (the world's largest conference and trade show for the podcast industry) in 2014. Since that time, PM has grown considerably, and in 2018 running Podcast Movement became his full-time focus. But with his love and curiosity for trying new things,  he and his wife decided to add someone more to their plates, they decided to take on venue ownership and they purchased a historical venue in downtown Plano just a few months ago in 2022!  Event1013 is a stylish, award-winning, Texas State Landmark venue. With authentic architecture, vintage charm and warm character blend with state-of-the-art technology and sustainable modern conveniences and finishes. Event1013 is the original and premier gathering spot in Historic Downtown Plano Arts District. Event1013 has been a gathering place in the community since the founding of downtown Plano in 1850. Its history, character and charm make it a unique, meaningful and memorable location to celebrate your special day. Venue Info:  Event 1013 – Events. Art. Music. Fun.

One of the ways we make podcasting better is by holding the people who work in podcasting accountable for doing better. I'm using my induction into the Podcast Hall of Fame to shine more light on that. Image courtesy of http://twitter.com/sheila_dee (Sheila Dee) In case you missed the memo, I was inducted into the https://podcasthof.com/hall-of-fame/ (Podcast Hall of Fame) last weekend. For those who don't have ~2 hours to watch the video hosted on Libsyn's account of the entire event, I've isolated out just my bit for today's episode. I talked a bit about the various perspectives of the people in podcasting. But the main thrust of my talk was about the perspective of people who are aware of podcasting but still aren't picking up what we're putting down. What do we look like to them?  It's great that https://www.edisonresearch.com/the-infinite-dial-2022/ (the diversity of podcast listeners is now nearly matching and in some cases exceeding the diversity of the overall country). But that's just listeners. Creators and service providers still over-index on the old white dude scale.  I'm doing what I can to change that by leading by example. I no longer apply to speak at podcast conferences because I don't want to force a well-meaning conference organizer to choose between me or someone from an underrepresented group to be on the stage. Someone whose ideas, work, and opinions deserve to be heard by more people. I'll speak at conferences if invited, but only after I do my homework. If (when)the headshots of other speakers aren't sufficiently diverse, I make them invite speakers from underrepresented groups. And if they refuse or are unable to comply with my request, I turn down the offer to speak. I've much the same attitude when I interact with my peers in the podcasting industry, and I don't shy away from calling my fellow old white dudes out on their bullshit or their bad behavior.  I'm not virtue signaling here. I call them out because I've been there, spewing similar bullshit or exhibiting similar bad behavior. A friend of mine once said to me, "You get away with so much because you're Evo." She was right. That wasn't good. And it's up to me to do better. I'm trying every day. And because it was an awards speech, I thanked a bunch of people, like: http://twitter.com/sheila_dee (Sheila Dee), https://www.facebook.com/michael.mennenga (Mike Mennenga) https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathanialunwin (NJ Unwin) https://twitter.com/TeeMonster (Tee Morris) https://twitter.com/markjeffrey (Mark Jeffrey) https://twitter.com/scottsigler (Scott Sigler) https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069795018864 (Chris Miller) https://www.linkedin.com/in/timlwhite/ (Tim White) https://www.linkedin.com/in/brantsteen (Brant Steen)  https://linkedin.com/in/podcast411 (Rob Walsh) https://twitter.com/GaryLeland (Gary Leland)  https://twitter.com/jaredeasley (Jared Easley) https://twitter.com/dmfranks (Dan Franks) https://twitter.com/1LanceAnderson (Lance Anderson)  http://twitter.com/bkkgreg (Greg Jorgensen)  https://twitter.com/Global_Gaz (Ric Gazarian) https://twitter.com/alushlifemanual (Susan Schwartz) https://twitter.com/Daughterpick (Allie Press) http://twitter.com/walkersam (Sam Walker) http://twitter.com/bryanbarletta (Bryan Barletta) http://twitter.com/jamescridland (James Cridland) http://twitter.com/libsyn (Libsyn) https://www.captivate.fm/ (Captivate) https://maps.fm/ (Maps.fm) https://scribl.com/ (Scribl) the https://mobile.twitter.com/bipoccreators (BIPOC Podcast Creators) community, ... and the myriad people and companies I couldn't squeeze in.

Como ganhar Bitcoin com seu podcast - Usando aplicativos de Podcasting 2.0 como CurioCaster ou Podfriend, os ouvintes podem compartilhar pequenas quantidades de moeda criptográficas - Bitcoin com os podcasts que escutam. Agora, os chamados "Boostagrams", permitem aos ouvintes enviar mensagens também aos podcasters, juntamente com uma caixinha. Veja agora como começar a aceitar a moeda Bitcoin para seu podcast. Vamos assumir que você está hospedando o seu podcast com um host de podcast (e não hospedando você mesmo), então você não pode editar o feed RSS bruto. Você será pago com algo chamado satoshis, normalmente abreviada para "sats". Um satoshis é um 100 milhões de bitcoin. Um Bitcoin vale, no momento, cerca de US $43.500. Você pode transferir as Bitcoins para sua própria moeda local sempre que quiser: sua moeda local é chamada de fiat money, caso você veja essa palavra em algum lugar.   Chris Messina em um tweet comentou uma nova feature que o Spotify recentemente adicionou em seu aplicativo. Um crachá com os "mais compartilhados" em episódios populares de podcasts, que aparece disponível para todos.   O Google Podcasts está lançando um pequeno redesenho para alguns usuários. As mudanças começam na aba "Home", onde o carrossel de podcasts é agora chamado de "Assinaturas". Isto permite ao Google adicionar um botão "Mais" que abre uma visualização em grade e assim aborda uma grande reclamação entre os usuários que seguem muitos shows. A abordagem anterior somente carrossel exigia muita rolagem para encontrar um determinado podcast.   A Audioburst apresenta o Finder, o primeiro embedded player ou widget de busca embutido para podcasts. Esta solução, revelada no “The Podcast Movement 2021”, permite que os podcasters transformem seus websites em poderosas plataformas de descoberta e distribuição de podcasts. A ferramenta facilita a busca por palavras-chave de capítulos de podcast, permitindo que os visitantes encontrem e ouçam "explosões" de áudio envolventes. Estes pequenos clipes mostram o conteúdo antes de assinar.   O SquadCast aumenta a qualidade de gravação para podcasters com dolbi.io. O estúdio de gravação baseado em nuvem anunciou a versão 4.5, que inclui cancelamento de ruído Dolby.io, masterização de áudio com um clique e novos recursos de fluxo de trabalho, entre outros aprimoramentos.   A lista de podcasts do Facebook crescerá nas próximas semanas e novos recursos serão lançados. Em uma apresentação em vídeo no evento “The Podcast Movement”, a gerente de produtos do Facebook Irena Lam disse que eles querem criar uma experiência holística que reúna a descoberta, monetização e conexão social de um podcast em um só lugar. A rede social está acrescentando gradualmente mais podcasts porque eles querem ter certeza de que tudo funciona como projetado antes de expandir ainda mais.   Conhela o Listen App - a primeira plataforma de eventos construída para podcasters. Acolher eventos, gravar conversas, construir uma comunidade, deixar um legado. A versão Android está agora ao vivo na loja Google Play, antes do lançamento no próximo mês.   O “The Podcast Movement” contou com 2.000 participantes presenciais e mais de 1.000 participantes virtuais. Na semana passada, o evento aconteceu em Nashville em meio a uma grande preocupação com a nova variante Delta do coronavírus que explodiu nas últimas semanas. Dan Franks, presidente do “The Podcast Movement”, disse que eles realmente não sabiam o que esperar, mas estão muito satisfeitos com o resultado.   A Moonbeam está procurando se posicionar como o TikTok dos podcasts. Este é um podcast player que tem como objetivo criar uma experiência semelhante à do TikTok para a descoberta de podcast. O aplicativo tem uma característica chamada "Beam", que serve aos ouvintes clipes e tópicos relacionados que lhes interessam. Se eles não gostam de um clipe, podem continuar rolando como o Tik Tok.   O Instagram adiciona uma guia "áudio" às suas opções de busca. Quando os usuários pesquisarem no Instagram, eles poderão mudar para uma nova aba 'áudio', que destacará as várias faixas disponíveis para uso dentro do aplicativo. Ao clicar em qualquer faixa surgirá uma exibição tipo TikTok dos que utilizaram amostras desse áudio. Você pode então salvar o áudio para seu uso e, ao mesmo tempo, obter uma visão completa das tendências relevantes e clipes para inspiração.   O Twitter realizou o 1º evento para produtores de podcasts no Brasil. A programação incluiu conteúdos sobre as melhores práticas e um bate-papo com Carol Rocha e Gus Lanzetta, do podcast Imagina Juntas. O evento teve como objetivo aproximar o público produtor de podcasts do Twitter e destacar as melhores práticas e soluções oferecidas pela plataforma para aumentar o volume do podcast, alavancar seus conteúdos e interagir com a audiência.   Mano Brown divulga data de estreia do seu podcast, ‘Mano a Mano'. O vocalista do grupo Racionais MCs, será estrela principal de um podcast original no Spotify. A estreia do ‘Mano a Mano' já tem data marcada: 26 de agosto deste ano. O cantor será o entrevistador do programa, onde irá receber diversas personalidades para falar sobre temas como música, política e esportes.

If I go back to those blog posts and attach an audio episode to them... 1) Will they show up in everyone's podcast app as new episodes? 2) If they do, will they show up with a date of back when I first posted them or will they change to the new current date of when I update them with an actual episode file?

The survival chances of young orca whales are boosted by the presence of their grandmothers, especially in times of food scarcity, according to new research that offers a clue as to the evolutionary purpose of menopause.While female orcas normally stop reproducing in their 30s and 40s, they can live for many decades following menopause, said the study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on Monday.Scientists analysed 36 years of data from the Center for Whale Research on killer whales in Canada and the United States. They found that post-reproductive whales were especially important because they were the most knowledgeable when it came to hunting."The death of a post-menopausal grandmother can have important repercussions for her family group," said Dan Franks, senior author of the study and a professor of biology at the University of York.He added that breeding grandmothers were less capable of providing the same level of support to baby calves, as they were busy taking care of their own offspring.The study also revealed that orca calves that had lost their grandmothers were more likely to die than those who were accompanied by them. The impact on a calf of losing a post-menopausal grandmother was also highest in years when the whales' prey salmon was scarce. Orcas are among only a small number of mammals known to go through menopause."Our new findings show that just as in humans, grandmothers that have gone through menopause are better able to help their grand offspring," said Darren Croft, a professor from the University of Exeter who participated in the study."These benefits to the family group can help explain why menopause has evolved in killer whales just as it has in humans."The research could provide important assessments relating to the conversation of the killer whale population, which has faced growing threats from the decline of food sources and climate change. The southern resident killer whales, which were featured in the research, have been listed as an endangered species by the National Wildlife Federation (NWF), a US-based nature conservation group.The-CNN-Wire™ & © 2019 Cable News Network, Inc., a WarnerMedia Company.

For episode three of the season, we're taking a long look at the power of the Podcasting Community.

We'll hear from creators about some of the amazing interaction they experienced on the floor and at the parties in Orlando (2:08); and discuss the overall collaborative spirit and the contrasting attitudes of podcasters when compared with traditional media (8:02); plus: we’ll shine our Podcast Movement Sessions spotlight on veteran podcaster and co-founder of the She Podcasts community, Elsie Escobar!

Welcome to season four of Podcast Movement Sessions! This time around we're focusing on PM19's Society, Culture, and Advocacy track and for our season premier we're taking a look more specifically at how creators have turned to the podcasting medium as a means of advocating for societal change. We'll speak with PM co-founders Jared Easley and Dan Franks about podcasting's low barrier of entry and how that has created a space for underrepresented voices to get their voices out about issues they care deeply for (2:40); we'll shine our PMS spotlight on a full circle moment from PM19 through a conversation with Ear Hustle co-creators Nigel Poor and Earlonne Woods--Ear Hustle could be the finest example of a podcast that grew into a force for change (8:04); finally, we'll hear from Leigh Pfeffer (host of History is Gay), the team behind Gay Future (Christina Friel and Connor Wright), Accused host/reporter Amber Hunt, and Tenderfoot TV's Christina Dana about how each of them consider themselves advocates through their respective podcasts (22:16).

En NotiPod Hoy WWE, la empresa más grande del mundo de la lucha libre, ha anunciado una colaboración con ‘Endeavor Audio’ para desarrollar una red de podcasts. Asociación Podcast de España lanza dos cursos que estarán disponibles en su página web para sus socios. La Facultad de Ciencias de la Comunicación de la Universidad de Coruña, está desarrollando una investigación sobre los podcasts en España, desde la perspectiva de los productores. Analizan las estrategia de Spotify que en tres meses, aumentó las cifras de oyentes en más del 50 por ciento y ya tiene 108 millones de usuarios ‘Premium’, 8 millones más en sólo tres meses. La historia de Spotify será narrada en una serie de televisión basada el libro ‘Spotify Inifran’ (llamado en inglés Spotify Untold) de los autores suecos Sven Carlsson y Jonas Leijonhufvud. ¿Quién es el líder del podcasting en Australia? Dos compañías han comenzado un debate indirecto sobre qué empresa es la líder en el sector. El jefe de audio de ‘NBC / MSNBC’, Steve Lickteig, dice que están buscando que sus artistas trabajen en el podcasting y aprovechen la oportunidad de llegar a sus audiencias para mostrar un lado de ellos que nunca vemos. En el portal “La Marea” han hecho un análisis sobre la radio como medio, las curiosidades de su nacimiento, su evolución y cómo el podcast rompe con los límites que tenía la radio. El audio no solo puede contar historias a través de las palabras, sino también a través de los sonidos. Un paisaje sonoro de Nueva York, por ejemplo, muestra la ciudad de Nueva York sin prisas, ofreciendo una forma diferente de disfrutar cada rincón, historia y detalle de este lugar. Martha Debayle, la conductora nicaragüense nacionalizada mexicana, que tiene un podcast exitoso en Spotify, entrevistó a una funcionaria mexicana de turismo de Yucatán y le hizo una pregunta sobre la homosexualidad que la puso un poco incómoda. Dan Franks, uno de los fundadores de ‘Podcast Movement’ aseguró que de los seis años que lleva el evento este año han tenido la energía más positiva. Podcast recomendado: Dr. Muerte (Castellano). Es un podcast en español de la red norteamericana de podcasts ‘Wondery’. Se basa en la historia sobre un cirujano encantador, 33 pacientes y un sistema débil. Es conducido por Laura Beil.

Brandon and Jerry discuss plans for attending Podcast Movement 2019 and two great reasons why you should attend a professional conference.Podcast Movement 2019Podcast Movement is a conference founded by Jared Easley and Dan Franks in 2014 to bring together thousands of podcasters and share about their craft. The event is designed for those who have been involved in podcasting since the first iPod as well as those who are just getting started.Some attend to learn more about the technical aspects of creating a podcast. Others come for marketing tips and tricks, and others are on the lookout for ideas to improve the formats of their shows.Networking and collaboration are other reasons why people come every year.Reasons to Attend a Professional ConferenceWhile you may not be planning to attend Podcast Movement yourself...ever, you may be asking yourself, “Why go to a conference at all?”There are two great reasons why you need to attend a professional conference even if your employer does not pay for it.First, you are investing in your own future. Your career or business will gain new ideas, skills, and knowledge from attending a professional conference. This week’s episode of Beyond the Rut discusses the desired focus Jerry has going into this year’s podcasting conference.The second reason is that you can network with other like-minded professionals. Success does not happen in a vacuum, and you should not try to go it alone.By attending a professional conference, you may come across an accountability partner like Jerry did while attending the 2018 Association for Talent Development Conference. Many people who attend Podcast Movement find themselves working on collaboration projects where efforts synergize and results are multiplied.We hope to inspire you with justification for attending a conference. Here are some suggestions to help you articulate the benefits of going to an event of your choice. You can gain skills to improve current programs, products, or services. There may be content offered that will help with a strategic initiative. You may learn what the state of the industry is and what the competition is doing. Vendors are often present to showcase how their tools are disrupting your field.5 Tips on How to Network at a Conference - BONUS CONTENTSince one of the benefits of attending a professional conference is the opportunity to network, here are five tips to help you do it in a way that prevents you from being a schmuck about it. Dress professionally. While others are dressing down and relaxing, you still want to represent your brand. Introduce yourself with laser speak. Be able to clearly identify who you are and what you do in two sentences. Be present. Don’t be the schmooze who shakes a hand, judges someone isn’t valuable to you, then move on to someone else. Also, don’t be that guy who is checking your phone while someone else is talking to you. When you’re present, you represent your brand well by showing how respectful you are. Take notes of who you meet. You’ll receive lots of business cards. Make a note on each one how you met the person and what stood out to you. Write notes TO those you meet. Follow up with an email after the event. Write a handwritten note to those who really stood out to you. Let the relationship-building be a long game for you and your career or business.Resources and LinksPodcast Movement 2019, PodcastMovement.com10 Tips on Networking Like a Pro at a Conference by Jeff GoinsHow to Get the Most Out of Conferences from the Jody Maberry ShowListen to these past episodes: Become the Noticer and Collaborate Towards Success with Jared Easley #DoYouEvenRutellaBro – BtR 039; We had the pleasure to interview Podcast Movement co-founder Jared Easley in the early days of Beyond the Rut thanks to an interesting connection made on Twitter.

Adriana Flores-Ragade didn't know English when she came to the US at the tender age of 12. Just one year later however, she was taking main stream classes. Driven is a good word to describe Adriana. She suceeded in school and she made it her life's work to give back to the community. She worked in education and the American Red Cross, listening to loved ones' stories who were giving their DNA to identify remains from the 9-11 terrorist attack.  Now she has a podcast and owes much of the success to Jared Easley and Dan Franks for creating the 30 day challenge to launch a podcast.   

This week's Wolf Den is two guests for the price of one, as Lex speaks with two entrepreneurs in the field podcasting.

I’ve been to a handful of podcast conferences in my day - but there’s nothing quite like Podcast Movement. As my guest, Dan Franks says, “It’s the single largest gathering of podcasters in the world,” and that makes it pretty special in its own right. But there’s so much more than just that it’s big. PM is filled with great content, attended by tons of great people, and offers an education and enthusiasm about podcasting you won’t find anywhere else. No offense, but not even at those other podcasting conferences I’ve been to. In this conversation Dan and I talked all things Podcast Movement - from what different level podcasters might experience to the exhibit hall, to they types of sessions offered, and more. An incredible value at any conference (even a podcasting conference) is in the hallways, not the presentations My first experience at podcast movement was in Chicago back in 2015. It was one of those environments that was truly electric, you can feel the excitement in the air. Everyone who comes is an enthused podcaster, or is interested in becoming one. It's great just to meet people, even if you don't attend all the sessions you are interested in. That first year, I think I only went to two or three sessions because I was so busy talking with people in the hallways. Everyone was so generous, sharing their best practices, explaining how they accomplish some amazing thing on there podcast audio, or walking you down the hall to a vendor that they personally vouch for. It really is a unique atmosphere that I recommend to every podcaster experience at least once. I was curious how Dan and the Podcast Movement team originally came up with the idea to create such a conference so I asked him. And this conversation he shares how he and some of his buddies were very frustrated with another conference -  New Media Expo. They attended 2 years straight and both times there were more podcast of New Media publisher, but there were very few sessions about podcasting. In a typical “can do” approach that many podcasters have, Dan and his friends decided to create the conference they wanted to attend. Podcast movement was born. Are you a newbie podcaster? Your mind will be blown (and empowered) at PM18 Both years that I've attended podcast movement I met a number of individuals who hadn't started their podcast yet. But it was clear they were very serious about doing so. You don't spend money to go to a mega podcast conference without being serious. New podcasters who want to attend podcast movement are going to have their minds blown. There's so much content, it is like drinking from the proverbial fire hose. But if you go about it in a smart way, you can really get a fast-track education about what it takes to create and publish a stellar podcast. When I say you need to go about it in a smart way, what I mean is that you should do a little bit of self education first before you land at the largest podcast conference in the world. Become familiar with podcasting terms, watch some YouTube videos, you might even consider taking our starter course to prepare yourself for what you're going to learn at Podcast Movement. It only cost $99 and we'll have you speaking the language in no time so that your experience at podcast movement is all it can be and more. But even if you decide not to purchase our course, please do something to learn what you can about podcasting. But be careful out there, there's a lot of dated information and advice that isn't based on best practices or what we come to know about podcast search, statistics, downloads, and but I would call Smart podcasting. Advice for seasoned podcasters attending Podcast Movement: Make a plan and execute Podcast movement is not only a podcasting conference for newbies. Even seasoned podcasters can learn a lot by being strategic. When I asked Dan about the kinds of things experience podcasters might learn to podcast movement he said the best approach for podcasters who are looking for something specific, is to look through the sessions and be strategic about what sessions you attend and why. Set goals for yourself. Tell yourself, “y the time I leave I'm going to know how to X, Y, Z.” Then, put your plan in place and make it happen. The way I figure it, you're spending the money to get to Philadelphia, get into the conference, stay in a hotel room and feed yourself, you should make the most of it. But keep in mind, that doesn't only happen in the panel sessions and keynotes. You will meet people in every hallway who have more experience than you do and perhaps have learned how to accomplish exactly what you want to learn. Don't be shy. Introduce yourself to people. Ask them what their podcast is about (That's one of the easiest ways to start a conversation at a podcast conference, you know). The more you isolate yourself and act like a junior high boy at the first school dance, the less you were going to benefit from. Guess movement. Be bold my podcasting brothers and sisters! Get out there and meet your fellow podcast siblings and build the community you long to be a part of. You may think that's a bit dramatic, but it's not. You really do need to take initiative. No irrelevant non-podcast conference exhibits allowed We probably all been at conferences where the exhibit hall is crammed full of any company or service that would pay money to be there. I was once at a Christian booksellers conference where one of the main aisles in the exhibit hall had not only one, but two massage chairs. Yes, it might be nice to get a massage in the middle of a conference, but what does it have to do with selling Christian books? You kind of get the feeling that the organizers were willing to sell boots to anybody who had a bank account. Dan Franks promises that podcast movement will never go in that direction. Every exhibitor is vetted before they are allowed to write the check to be in the exhibit hall. The podcast movement team wants to ensure that everything it's attendees are supposed to is relevant to some aspect of podcasting. That's a breath of fresh air. And one of the things I noticed when I attended podcast movement is that the exhibitors are usually there because they want to help. Yes, they believe their products or services are a valuable way to help you, but if they don't offer what you need, they are quick to point you in the right direction. That's exactly what happened to me one year as I was searching for a particular technology to solve a problem I had with my podcast. The person I spoke to going to me to another company entirely, simply because he wanted to be helpful. That's a winning combination. But I'm going to miss my massage. You have a responsibility to make podcasting better for all of us Imagine that you are telling a co-worker about your favorite series on Netflix. How effective is your enthusiasm about the show going to be on that co-worker if they don't even know what Netflix is? The same thing is true about podcasting. All of us want to gain more listeners to are podcasts, but there are still hundreds of thousands of people in the United States alone who don't even know what a podcast is. It's going to take all of us, promoting our podcasts, explaining what podcasting is, in even borrowing our friends smartphone to pull up there podcasting app and show them how to subscribe, before podcasting will become as prevalent as well known as Netflix. Being on par with Netflix isn't the goal, but that kind of notoriety in familiarity definitely needs to happen in the industry. Everyone of us who podcasts is responsible to make sure that happens. It's actually pretty simple. Don't forget to talk about your podcast to people who you think might be interested in it. Mention other great podcasts that you have listened to recently, show your friends how to find it for themselves. The more enthused we are about the podcast Kool-Aid we've been drinking, the more convincing we are going to be and getting others to drink it. If you haven't thought about attending podcast movement, I highly recommend it. You'll come away from the largest podcasting conference in the world with a renewed enthusiasm not only for your podcast, but for podcasting in general. You will also Come Away with more than one great idea for improving your podcast, adjusting your process to make the consistent publication of your podcast possible, and maybe even a new podcasting best friend.

Nuevo estudio sobre cómo escuchan los podcasts Steve Goldstein de nueva investigación (http://www.nuvoodoo.com/) sobre "cómo la gente realmente escuchan los podcasts" incluyendo información de dos estudios: uno cuantitativo y otro cualitativo. Estos fueron los resultados: 76% de los encuestados escuchan de 2 a 6 podcasts a la semana. El 56% dicen que están subscritos a 2 a 6 podcasts. 40% de los oyentes descargan y escuchan el podcast enseguida. 23% dicen que lo descargan para luego escucharlo. 35% dicen que hacen las dos cosas. La mayoría, 54%, eligen lo que quieren escuchar, mientras que 29% simplemente escuchan lo que viene a continuación en la lista. 2/3 de los encuestados dijeron que no pueden mantenerse al día con todos los podcasts. 56% dice que prestan atención a los anuncios en podcasts, muy por encima de cómo lo hacen con otros medios de comunicación. En cuanto al descubrimiento, las redes sociales y la promoción de boca en boca son las fuentes primarias. Las aplicaciones, otros podcasts y los artículos, también juegan un papel importante. La investigación también reveló los métodos y aplicaciones que los encuestados usan para escuchar: iPhone Apple Podcast, Stitcher, TuneIn y a través de la web.

Understand Before Being Understood About a month ago I left a comment on the Spreaker Live show, and this comment resulted in a response from the host that in a conversation he had with me was "Disproportional." So after we both hissed at each I set up a time when we could talk about this and see how we pushed each other's buttons. We did and it was a great interview. The bad news is my SD Card ran out of room, and my backup (mp3 skype recorder) didn't get it either. I could call Alex back on, but at this point, so much water is under the bridge, I thought I would just paraphrase what really happened. In my comment, there were times when I used ALL CAPS to make a point. Alex is used to dealing with comments from YouTube which are much crueler, and personal that the average podcast comment This was the first time he had been challenged on the podcast side of this content (vs the YouTube side) and it caught him off guard. He apologized for calling me a schmuck, and I explained that when he made a joke about me not having any listeners (because I don't use Spreaker), and that I wasn't up front with people about the fact that I work for Libsyn, and we chatted about that. I explained how I wasn't trying to push his buttons, and then we did something that most people miss out on. We had some cool conversation about topics we have in common. For example, Chris Cornell had just died. Neither one of use quite gets while World Trade Center Tower Number 7 went down. In the end, I look forward to meeting Alex at Podcast Movement. If I had not taken a second to step back, and wonder if there was something I DID to create such a reaction (instead of just condemning the other person) then I would've lost out on an opportunity to learn something (be careful using caps in comments), and Alex wouldn't have been able to see his reaction. Lastly, I think we both gained a new friend. So instead of being so set on proving somebody wrong, instead maybe ask, "Why did you say that?" or "What were you feeling when you said that?" and try to understand before being understood (Which is a lesson I learned from the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People) Seriously, How Do I Grow My Audience? Devlin Wilder posted in a Facebook Group, "Please, for the love of all that's good and pure, someone please help me WITH REAL INFO on how I get the numbers. I don't want to hear I need to have my show out for years or I need to get to 200 episodes or what not. And I've had no luck with Fiverr. I need to know the real deal" This is like saying, "I want to know about making a baby, but I don't want to hear about ovaries, sperm, or having to wait 9 months." THERE ARE NO SHORTCUTS  In her book Beyond Powerful Radio Radio Consultant Vallerie Geller states, "in my experience, with few exceptions it takes about three years to build a talk station." She points out that the original Star Trek Series was canceled after three seasons and it was re-runs where the audience found the show. Jerry Seinfeld has framed a memo stating that his show has a poor supporting cast, and most people who saw the test pilot would not watch it again. Gary Vaynrchuck says nobody watched his show for the first 19 months Rand Fishkin tells about his wife, Geraldine, and her travel blog, Everywhereist. For two years she never broke 100 visitors a day (she does a blog). Five years later she gets 1000,000 visitors a month. Source Success comes from feedback, and the ability to look at yourself and ask "Can I Improve This?" Growing up I had a basketball hoop in my backyard. Every time I shot a basket and it bounced off the rim and back at me.... that was feedback.  I watched Kareem Abdul Jabar and his sky hooks shot. It was unblockable. I practiced my skyhook over and over and over. Eventually, I could shoot it with my eyes shut. That took time. If you want to quit your job in six weeks, I would recommend that you not even start podcasting. This is like someone wanting to lose 40 pounds in six weeks. You soon learn that six weeks is not that long, and 40 pound is not that small. The Answer is There is No Answer There are so many factors that play into this Are you working full time? What market are you in and how crowded is it? How unique are you? Your Web Design It's Not Who You Know, It's Who Knows You Podcast Movement is coming up in August, and DC Podfest is coming up in November. I will be at Podcast Movement, and I plan on being in DC Podfest. Do these cost lots of money? Just the travel alone can be expensive based on your budget. That is the key, what is your budget? If you don't have the budget, don't be stupid, don't go. I'm saving money as we speak for Social Media marketing world. I have to plan. I have to put money in my budget. If you have a family with a spouse and kids, don't be stupid. Is It Worth Going to An Event? I have a podcast group for people in Northeast Ohio. I rarely get more than five people in attendance. One of those people (Matt from theauthorinsideyou.com) helped get me on a local TV show. I met Gary Leland, Paul Colligan, and Rob Walch at one of the fire New Media Expos. Rob was the person I called when I found myself out of a job and looking to work in the podcasting industry (I now work for Libsyn). I met Ken Blanchard at an event and I haven't stopped laughing yet. I met Jared Easley and Dan Franks at the New Media Show. Later they would start Podcast Movement and I've been blessed to say I've spoken at every single one in one capacity or another. I met Eri kK Johnson and came up with the idea of adding him to the Podcast Review show at an event. I met Mike Russel of Music Radio Creative at the New Media Show I met Glenn The Geek At Podcast Movement. Glen got me involved with Chris Krimitsos and I was able to speak at Podfest.us That lead to me helping with the Messengers Podcast about their documentary. That lead to me being the closing keynote at podfest.us this year. One person, one contact. Last year I met a whole bunch of people at DC Podfest including Matthew from Podtopod.com. Most of those I paid for (events post-2016 I typically can expense out). When I was a musician, I once drove four hours after getting off work at 8 PM to drive to Cincinnati and hangout with a bunch of indie musicians for three hours before turning around and driving home (I was probably 20). One of the relationships I start at that meeting was a guy who went to another event and learned about podcasting. Whooshkaa Free Media Hosting For those who are new to me reviewing media hosting, I have some criteria. 1. Don't mess with my file. What I upload is what I want people to download. 2. Give me the ability to have an unlimited back catalog (unlimited storage) 3. Don't limit my audience size (unlimited bandwidth) 4. Don't control my feed, and make it easy to leave if I choose to do so. I need to be able to put in an iTunes redirect script. 5. Give me support. 6. Charge me for your service so you can stay in business 7. Give me stats so I can see what's working. It would be nice if they were accurate Whooshkaa is doing something that has been tried by audiometric.io and before them podango.com. This is where you give free hosting so you can see advertising on the podcast. Do Whooshkaa meet my criteria? No, but there is an asterisk. They mess with your file (as they put code into the mp3 file to alert when to play an advertisement), so they keep most of your ID3 tags, but they ditch you image (so if someone downloads your show to their computer and plays it, the dreaded gray music note of death appears on a windows machine). They also change your file name. They don't change your file format, but by nature, they HAVE to change your file to stay in business. Their support was quick and very helpful. Their stats are very similar to what everyone else provides (number of downloads, geographic, operating system, the technology used, etc). They do offer how long someone has listened. Unless they have cracked a new code, this is typically a wasted stat. The only way they can get that information is if you are using their player. To this, I point out that over 80% of podcasts are listened to on a mobile device (so this stat is kind of a "Corinthian leather" feature, sounds good, but in the end not that accurate). They have a built in "Clammr" feature, called highlights. Clammr.com is the first service that allows you to make snippets of a show and share it on social media. With Clammr you can share a snippet of the show and when they click on the snippet they are taken to a place where they can listen to the rest of the episode. You can see how many people listened to your "Highlight." For me, I thought the design could be adjusted to make it go from easy to SUPER EASY to hear the rest of the podcast. They do have a weird "Sign up for our newsletter" when you send people to an episode on Whooshkaa. The problem is that for the Whooshkaa email list (not yours). Getting Paid As the code in the mp3 file has the word "Triton" I'm guessing that they are using Triton for their advertisements. This means that podcasters can probably expect 1 to 2 cents per download. So if I had my Weekly Web Tools on their platform I might make $12 for the month (at 1200 downloads a month). That is if you are lucky enough to have advertising. When I enquired about their CPA, they responded, "We don't have any information on the CPA for ads.  We generally only work with our larger podcasters/media companies for ad injection." When I wanted to know how many downloads you need to get a sponsor, a support person lets me know, "Generally more than 10k per month before we approach a podcaster for ads. Some of our current partners monetising include News Corp, Fox Sports, Sky News, Bauer and a few large Australian Sporting organizations. When I pointed out to them that others had tried this model, they responded, "We support the podcast ecosystem with free hosting, while making ad revenue from the top 5%.  At the end of the day, the cost of hosting a podcast with small downloads is negligible.  We hope that some of the smaller podcasters turn out to be the next Ira Glass or Alex Blumberg :) It's super easy to pick a spot where you want your advertising to be placed. By default, they want to add three advertisers (I chose one). I believe you will be contacted when you reach certain milestones for advertising as there is nothing in the dashboard (that I can find, and nothing in their help section) about getting paid (i.e paypal, direct deposit). Conclusion Call me weird, but building your podcast on a host that doesn't charge is risky business (again, podango, audiometric.io) but if you're in a boat and have zero budget (they do redirect feeds if you want to leave) then I would recommend Whooshkaa over another free service Pinecast if you're looking for a free service with all the trimmings. If you asked me which one will be in business in five years between Pinecast and Whooshkaa, I would put my money on Pinecast as their free service motivates you to upgrade to their paid service. With Whooshkaa they are hoping that people with 10,000 downloads per episode take their advertising, and don't leave for another host. I notice in their terms of service it states, "If you are a Commercial User/Channel Partner, this may be altered by any specific agreements we hold with you."

Is that fair and accurate about radio?-Listener CommentsShow Duration: 62 minutesHost: Rob Greenlee, Head of Content, Spreaker @robgreenlee - rob(at)spreaker(dotcom)Co-Host: Alex Exum, Host of “The Exum Experience Podcast” on SpreakerAre Flaws and Mistakes, is it Ok to leave in your show?Gail Nobles“Talk about flaws and mistakes. We are taught that we have to be perfect in recording. Some mistakes are not that noticeable. There are people that pay attention to every little thing so that they can make negative comments. Everyone may not like your show, but some people will.”-Yes, some flaws and mistakes are ok - little things like segment transition errors, ums and ahhs, audio silences, light backgrounds sounds are ok-Not ok, big variation in volume levels, painful to hear humming and audio quality and loud background sounds.-Audio recordings that don’t fit the content flow or topic that are part of the show Blog.Spreaker.com: Podcast Suicide: 5 Errors to Avoid1) Refusing to recognize your target audienceWhile keeping a broad appeal is good, not targeting a specific bracket is like shooting yourself in the foot. It’s like refusing to recognize that you’re speaking to actual listeners, not just to thin air.Start with the very basics: who is your model listener?2)Not having a pre-launch marketing planThis is no time to be modest. At the very beginning, you have got to be your very own cheerleader – cos if you don’t cheer, who will?3)Not bothering to submit to iTunesMaybe you just haven’t got round to it yet. Maybe you are trying an alternative podcatcher service. But there’s no denying that the first place where listeners seek out podcasts is iTunes so no submitting yours amounts to podcast suicide.4)Messing up your RSS feedThe magic touch of podcasting lies in the seamless way information syncs up, like a smooth dive into a pool. This is thanks to your RSS feed. Messing that up, well, it’s tantamount to a belly-flop: jarring and kinda cringe-worthy5)Uploading your podcast directly onto your websiteIt’s nice to keep everything in one place, but that’s no reason for uploading your podcast files onto the same server as your website. First of all, hosting your podcast on your site will be a strain on your bandwidth and therefore make your website really slow.Many podcast listeners are switching away from radioRadio marketing and research company Nuvoodoo offered new research on podcasting. Two recent surveys about podcast listenership. For the overall population, 9.5% of respondents spend at least one hour a day listening to podcasts. Certain demographics reported heavier use of podcasts, most notably men aged 25-34 with 21.7% listening daily for at least an hour. The other top groups with at least an hour time spent listening were men aged 35-44 at 14.2% and men aged 18-24 at 12.9%.According to the participants, the shift to more podcast listening is coming from terrestrial radio. Two-thirds (66.4%) said they listen to less FM radio since they’ve been listening to podcasts. Personal music was the second most-common response at 39.4%, followed by AM radio at 37.9%. Sirius XM has also lost listeners to podcasts, posting 29.7%.The trend of increased podcast listening echoed arcs seen in the latest Infinite Dial results.

YouTube has plenty of videos attempting to audibly illustrate the difference between the sound quality of an MP3 file and an AAC, but the gist is that AAC files are generally thought to sound better at lower compression rates, or bitrates. Compared with a standard MP3 file, an AAC file sounds sharper and takes up less space on your computer.In actuality, there are already several other file formats, notably FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, and Opus, that don’t come with the same licensing restrictions but do offer the same amount of quality as an AAC.

Spreaker Live Show #114 for May 31st, 2017Show Today:-Are Flaws and Mistakes, Ok to leave in your show?-Podcast Suicide: 5 Errors to Avoid-Survey shows: Many podcast listeners are switching away from radio-Is something big happening to MP3 audio file format?-Is Radio Old and Boring? Is that fair and accurate about radio?-Listener CommentsShow Duration: 62 minutesHost: Rob Greenlee, Head of Content, Spreaker @robgreenlee - rob(at)spreaker(dotcom)Co-Host: Alex Exum, Host of “The Exum Experience Podcast” on SpreakerAre Flaws and Mistakes, is it Ok to leave in your show?Gail Nobles“Talk about flaws and mistakes. We are taught that we have to be perfect in recording. Some mistakes are not that noticeable. There are people that pay attention to every little thing so that they can make negative comments. Everyone may not like your show, but some people will.”-Yes, some flaws and mistakes are ok - little things like segment transition errors, ums and ahhs, audio silences, light backgrounds sounds are ok-Not ok, big variation in volume levels, painful to hear humming and audio quality and loud background sounds.-Audio recordings that don’t fit the content flow or topic that are part of the show Blog.Spreaker.com: Podcast Suicide: 5 Errors to Avoid1) Refusing to recognize your target audienceWhile keeping a broad appeal is good, not targeting a specific bracket is like shooting yourself in the foot. It’s like refusing to recognize that you’re speaking to actual listeners, not just to thin air.Start with the very basics: who is your model listener?2)Not having a pre-launch marketing planThis is no time to be modest. At the very beginning, you have got to be your very own cheerleader – cos if you don’t cheer, who will?3)Not bothering to submit to iTunesMaybe you just haven’t got round to it yet. Maybe you are trying an alternative podcatcher service. But there’s no denying that the first place where listeners seek out podcasts is iTunes so no submitting yours amounts to podcast suicide.4)Messing up your RSS feedThe magic touch of podcasting lies in the seamless way information syncs up, like a smooth dive into a pool. This is thanks to your RSS feed. Messing that up, well, it’s tantamount to a belly-flop: jarring and kinda cringe-worthy5)Uploading your podcast directly onto your websiteIt’s nice to keep everything in one place, but that’s no reason for uploading your podcast files onto the same server as your website. First of all, hosting your podcast on your site will be a strain on your bandwidth and therefore make your website really slow.Many podcast listeners are switching away from radioRadio marketing and research company Nuvoodoo offered new research on podcasting. Two recent surveys about podcast listenership. For the overall population, 9.5% of respondents spend at least one hour a day listening to podcasts. Certain demographics reported heavier use of podcasts, most notably men aged 25-34 with 21.7% listening daily for at least an hour. The other top groups with at least an hour time spent listening were men aged 35-44 at 14.2% and men aged 18-24 at 12.9%.According to the participants, the shift to more podcast listening is coming from terrestrial radio.

Dan Franks, the co-founder, and co-organizer of Podcast Movement joins us on PodtoPod to talk about the origin of this podcasting event and some of the incredible speakers and activities you can look forward to at this year's conference in Anaheim, CA.

Brutally Honest Storytelling with Shannon Cason In this episode of the Podcast Movement Sessions, we get brutal honesty from Shannon Cason, the host of Homemade Stories and keynote speaker at Podcast Movement 2017. Shannon is joined in this episode by Alexander Adams from the Smash/Cut Podcast and Dan Franks, co-founder of Podcast Movement.

This episode features heavy discussions of cold hard cash. Featuring a panel from Podcast Movement 2016 with Jordan Kope, Colt Cabana, Rob Cesternino, Bob Ruff and Liz Covart. They talk about bringing sponsors to their show and finding funds from their audience directly. We also talk to Dan Franks about the origins of Podcast Movement, Jeni Wren Stottrup about funding her show, Gritty Birds and Chel Hamilton about how she found a whole new avenue for letting her audience support her.

From the time I was in junior high, I had a "side hustle," though that term hadn't been invented yet. First it was a paper route. Then a job at a shoe store. Then I turned my love for architecture into a drafting business. My high school actually paid me to skip study hall to go draw floor plans of the various buildings in our district. In college, I picked up radio...and then voiceover and production gigs...and, most recently, public address jobs at sporting events. It's actually a pretty sweet deal to get paid for your hobbies. Which certainly can't be said for golf or fishing. Dan Franks can relate. From building websites to podcast creation, Dan has frequently supplemented his job as a CPA with something technology-related.  And then in 2014, Dan Franks turned his "side hustle" into Podcast Movement...the biggest, baddest podcasting conference in the world. He's such a show off. Dan Franks is the co-founder of Podcast Movement, a conference for podcasters, by podcasters which expects 2,000 attendees at PM17 in Anaheim this year. Dan is also the business manager at Midroll, which helps great advertisers meet great podcasts. SHOW NOTES: 1:27 - What do Dan's days at Midroll and Podcast Movement consist of? 3:01 - Dan's worst interview ever was so bad, that it never even occurred! 8:31 - To record crystal-clear, long-distance interviews...check out RINGR for free. 9:34 - How do you optimize your workflow without coming across as a robot or impersonal? 12:07 - Learn how building websites in middle school turned Dan into the person he is today. 13:12 - The differences between a creator and a consumer. 14:55 - Connect with Dan online by going to his website.

Because of My Podcast: My Family Was Fed A Giant Meal Cale Nelson of Ham Radio 360 sent in a great story where a listener told him NOTt to make dinner the Thursday before Christmas. Then sent Cale a giant box of Barbecue. When you've got a houseful of kids, and your wife is happy because the food is excellent, and she didn't have to cook it - it's a big win. Check out Cale's show at HamRadio360.com Starting a Podcast Your Customer Wants To Hear Should your business have a podcast? Probably. It's a great way to get in front of your target audience no matter where they are. I was asked to be on a new podcast coming out today (my episode is in the future) and its from Tim Sinclair. You may or may not know that name, but I'll reveal who his is in a second. I just checked out his site and then it hit me. This is a great example of using a podcast for your business. Tim Sinclair is the CEO of Ringr . This is an app and service that allows you to record both sides of an interview. If you're worried about doing a "mix minus" then you may want to check out this service. Plans start at $7.99 a month for the basic, and $18.99 for the premium. For more information go to http://ringr.com/podcastcoach The people that use Tim's technology interview people and want a good recording. There are two ways to learn things. You can be shown how to do it right, or your can bring in those two famous trainers that seem to help everyone. You may know them as Trial and Error. They are not very efficient, but their lessons cut deep. You want your podcast to do one of these things Laugh Cry Think Groan Educate Entertain If you have your show do more than one of the above, you're headed in the right direction. So what Tim did is launch a podcast filled with fun, entertaining stories that can be educational as well. The podcast is called My Worst Interview Ever.  He has interviewed people like Cliff Ravenscraft, The Mobile Pro Shawn Smith, The App Guy Paul Kemp, XM Radio’s Doug Hannah, Blubrry’s Todd Cochrane, Libsyn’s Rob Walch, syndicated radio host Brant Hansen, Dave Jackson, Dan Franks, Jeff Brown, Daniel J. Lewis. The stories I understand are hilarious. The first episode is John Lee Dumas talking about his worst interview ( a rock icon famous for selling coffins). So when creating a podcast, one strategy is to create a podcast that your target audience wants to hear. Tim identified his audience and has come up with a fun and entertaining way to produce good content without making his show a giant infomercial. Remember, nobody tunes into an infomercial on purpose. The next thing I like is Tim is already in iTunes and Stitcher. He doesn't seem too worried about the magical happy place of New and Noteworthy and his first eight weeks. With content like this, I bet he'll get listed because he didn't name his show wtf this week in cold cases on fire. He also made sure  NOT to make it giant Ringr commercial. He does a quick mention in the middle. He understands the idea is to build an audience first. Check out his show at worstinterviews.com and check out his service at ringr.com A Not Great Example The Penzu podcast is meant to help promote their company (penzu.com which I love and use) Nobody is looking for "Penzu" that doesn't know then) so how is this supposed to bring in new people? They are using Soundcloud as their platform (who are leaking money). Switch to Libsyn.com and your back catalog comes for free during the first quarter of 2017, and get a free month using the coupon code sopfree  Their titles look awful.  There is no description.  They only have seven episodes (which is fine), but they have the podcast in their software (so their customers have had "episode 7 in their platform all year) Back to the Basics Of Your Website I recently did the "Favorite Podcast Ever" show where you sent in your favorite podcasts and explained why they were your favorite. I always then go to the website of those show and share that someone thinks you're the best. I am amazed at some of the things I find. Before we get into those, you do need to decide what your website is for. By this mean I mean if your podcast is to drive leads to your business, then you might have a giant sign up form. If you're trying to grow your community, you might really be sending people to your Facebook group. So in the end, there is no one size fits all. However, there are two things I hear over and over and over. I hear, "I want more downloads, and I want more interaction." When I go to the websites of these people, there are no links to subscribe to their show. There is no easy way to contact you. One person I had to tweet at (and their twitter account was waaaay at the bottom of their screen).  I had someone who was going to hire me to help him get more subscribers. I went to their website, and said you don't need to pay me for this, but there isn't a single subscriber button on your website.  Ready To Start Podcasting?

All of us have had an "interview gone wrong." Probably more than one. Connection issues. The wrong bio information. A guest who wouldn't stop talking. The "yes/no" guy. Prima donnas. Terrible content. Weird distractions. Heck, I once interviewed a guy for my radio show who was running on a treadmill! At RINGR, our goal is to make your recorded interviews sound better and connect easier...but we fully realize that there are plenty of elements out of our (and your) control which can totally derail a conversation. So, rather than sweep that stuff under the rug and ignore it, we thought it might be fun to talk about it. Three times a week. In our very own podcast. That's why we've launched "My Worst Interview Ever"...a podcast where I talk with the world's all-time greatest interviewers about their all-time worst interviews. Our first guest is none other than Entrepreneur on Fire's John Lee Dumas, who tells an incredible story about his worst interview (with a legendary rock star)...and then shares some personal details on why he is who he is today. All in less than 15 minutes. In the coming days and weeks, we'll also talk to Podcast Answer Man Cliff Ravenscraft, The Mobile Pro Shawn Smith, The App Guy Paul Kemp, XM Radio's Doug Hannah, Blubrry's Todd Cochrane, Libsyn's Rob Walch, syndicated radio host Brant Hansen, Dave Jackson, Dan Franks, Jeff Brown, Daniel J. Lewis, and dozens of others. You won't want to miss their stories! In addition to listening to the debut episode of MWIE, please be sure to follow My Worst Interview Ever on Twitter and Facebook...and then share the podcasts you like. We trust you will have many favorites. You'll also find us on iTunes, Stitcher, and many other fine podcast distributors. Happy recording (and listening)... Tim

Dan Franks, Co-Founder of Podcast Movement tells us about the upcoming event in Chicago, July 2016

I went to Podfest.us a couple of weeks ago and I saw a person do a presentation that offered to help people launch their podcast for $8999. Just for that weekend there was a sale and they would only charge you $3990. This is America and if you can get people to pay for $4,000 for your advice, then GO CAPITALISM. I feel bad for your customers, because without an intimate knowledge of your product, my gut instinct says they over-paid. A couple of episode ago I said the snake-oil sales people are coming, and now I'm here to tell you they are here. So get your boots on cause the poop is getting deep. Podcast Review Swap - Trying to Cut in Line in the Apple Charts is Bad For Podcasting I was in a private Facebook group when the owner of the group (the same guy selling a $9,000 podcast course) places this post: RATE AND REVIEW SWAP - POST YOUR SHOW BELOW (LET'S GET A LONG THREAD GOING)Is it ok to post your show via iTunes link? and ask for rate and review swaps?I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE TO DO THISsomething like hey everyone, wanna do rate and review swap? Here's my show --show link removed by Dave--Let me know when you've done it and I'll go do the same. Extra points for screenshots or copy paste of review smile emoticonWHAT I DON'T ENCOURAGE'Hey guys check out the most bomb, amazing spectacular show on the planet - insert link. and subscribe please...NOPE!example #2Hey guys this week we talk about how we are the real deal, and we discuss it in such an amazing way. ARen't we awesome! - link to youtube. **Please don't F'ing do this! I am considering kicking you out if you do this more than 1x. and I won't tell you, so don't do it at all.BEST PRACTICE FOR ASKING FOR RATE AND REVIEWS"Anyone opne for rate and review swap: here's my show""Just left review for TAG PERSON - great show, here's what I wrote - insert message - THEN say - here's my show can you hit me back too" The people lined up DROVES. The post was growing like a weed. This was like a unicorn. I had heard of them, but had never seen one, and it was depressing. After no less than 20 people I had put in their link I chimed in as asked why we were asking people who had never heard your show to give us a give star review. As always, I'm open to other sides of the story so I asked, "Why are you doing this? If you can't get your audience (who has heard your show) to review it, that is a red flag that your content is not resonating with your audience. Please shed some light on this. He repled: The idea here is that people can listen, rate, and review and not be stranger. As artists we need a place to be ale to get feedback to share on our show, and this is a thread for people to be able to do that.  We are not encouraging people to be strangers here and in a podcasting group it only makes sense to have a place where people can openly asks for reviews and feedback.  There is a place for podcasters to get feedback and share it on your show. It's called your audience. It's called comments on your website, facebook, email, voicemail from people who can help shape your content for the better. They are called YOUR AUDIENCE. The answer is a lie. They are trying to game the system, jump up the charts, and boost their downloads. I get that. Who doesn't want a bigger audience? Do you remember William Hung from American Idol. This poor kid couldn't sing or dance, but he was so bad we shot him on the charts. William produced an album, and that's the last I heard of him. He doesn't have the talent to remain on that stage. More and more professional content creators are getting into podcasting (radio people). They have paid their dues, and they have had lots of practice. They have found their voice, and they know what their audience wants. So now when we shoot your inexperienced probably not great  podcast to the top of the charts, you look like William Hung. Your audience doesn't stay, and your career is over. Don't be a Flash in the Pan Never week Danny Peña will be on the show. He is a hall of fame podcaster who started out on caseete tapes. His main focus is on his audience, and he now works for CBS. He gets paid to play video games because he did the work, listened to his audience, and promoted his show endlessly. He didn't cheat, he didn't cut in line, he didn't spam anyone, and the guy is a rock star in the gaming world.  Back in 2005ish Dr. Joe Vitale start podcasting. His first episode was all about him, and how great he was and why you should listen. It did nothing for the listener. he had a huge email list, and he must've sent out an email for people to vote for him on Podcast Alley (this was pre iTunes). They did. Joe went from 0 to the top of the charts. His episode was awful, and the next week he was completely off the charts. Apple is Not Going to be Happy That Your are Negative Effecting Their Product By "gaming" the iTunes charts the results are not entirely accurate. Apple went to a lot of work to build the system, and I'm pretty sure they are not going to be happy that you are playing it for the fool. More "Bad" Advice Coming Out Daily A recent article focusing on how to get to the to of iTunes New and Noteworthy came out and suggested this: The article (which I'm purposely not linking to) states, "Fact: Once your show is approved by iTunes, they (Apple) give you an 8-week window to rise to the top in the "New and Noteworthy" categories. This is your best opportunity to strike podcast launch gold." To this I BEG you SHARE YOUR NUMBERS. I've asked my audience to share their pre, during and post "New and Noteworthy Numbers" and the only people who have had shown that with over 1000 podcasts being added to iTunes each week (www.newmediashow.com) that the impact of New and Noteworthy is not thousands of downloads like it was in the past. If you can show me differently, I would love, love, love to see it. Set a Date for Your Podcast Launch I have seen so many people make really bad mistakes because they don't know what's involved with a podcast and they will pick a date. Even if it is six weeks out there is so much that go wrong with: ArtworkMusicTechnologyThe InternetRecording GearApple That to pick a date that you will launch is a pretty risky move. It is better to pick a day that you plan on having everything you need to pick the actual launch day. To this people freak out and state the 8 week rule. This is BS. You have 8 weeks to be NEW, you can be NOTEWORTHY any time. Use Template to Contact People The article states to use a personal approach and then states that he uses templates (that you can get if you give him your email list) Be Ready For Your New and Noteworthy Screen Shot It then states to be ready to take your screen shot (after bugging everyone you know, and as we have seen above - people you don't know) so you can climb the charts. If you're going to game the system, do it smart. PHOTOSHOP. Now I'm not saying this is a legit strategy, but it takes a lot less time, and nobody can check the history of New and Noteworthy. So if you're going to cheat, cheat smart. The author states, Back when I launched my show in the summer of 2014, I set my alarm clock for middle-of-the-night and early morning hours. I didn't want to run the risk of missing my moment in the number one spot. The more I work with podcasters, the more I see a trend. The people who spend hours OBSESSING over stats, don't have impressive numbers. Why? Because instead of obsessing over their audience, they are obsessing over download numbers. If you obsess over the audience, the stats will come. The article states ,"The more frequently you release your shows, the more likely you are to stack up downloads, increase your visibility, and maintain your number-one spot in the "New and Noteworthy."  The author forgot one important FACT. The Podcasts app STOPS DOWNLOADING your show if you have not listened to the episodes. Most people will not be able to keep up with you firehouse of information and thus the downloads will stop. How often should you publish? Don't ask me, ask your target audience! The Bottom Line the more we align ourselves with Scammers, Gamers, Liars, the more we - podcasters as a whole - risk losing our integrity. If our stats are rendered meaningless by the twitter bombers and the Review Swappers, nobody will sponsor our shows. Really? Ever heard of an endorsement deal getting pulled when the celebrity behaves poorly? Exactly, so knock it off.

We also hear from Dan Franks, Eleanor Kagan and Shannon Cason on the importance of diversity, the good, the bad and the funny. #Diversity #PM16 #PodcastMovement #Buzzfeed #AnotherRound #Hillary #ShannonCason #HomemadeStories

Dan Franks calls himself a lifetime serial entrepreneur (not necessarily out of the womb). He started building websites for clients while in middle school, he started two podcasts, and together with three partners, he launched Podcast Movement, the largest conference in the world specifically for podcasting, and from there they branched out into single-day regional events, and even a six-day cruise dedicated to podcasting. Dan is also a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), and I wanted the accountant's perspective on what entrepreneurs should and should not do when starting their businesses and managing their money. Dan discusses some of the worst and best things entrepreneurs can do as far as money is concerned. Please see Disclosure* (below) concerning affiliate links on this page. Key Segments [00:10] Get Laser Focused. I advocate for people, if they're passionate about what they're doing and want to succeed, to get laser focused. Go through the valley of immersion, and dedicate yourself. There have been times when I let other things get in my way. The serial entrepreneur started grabbing for more shiny objects when I should have been staying laser focused on what it was I was working on or what my goal was. Stay laser focused and dedicated. [02:45] Dan is a lifetime serial entrepreneur. Dan refers to himself as a lifetime serial entrepreneur on his webpage. What does this mean to him? From a business perspective, Dan's brain is always turning and coming up with things that might be worth trying. Early on, Dan was able to turn his interests and passions into businesses. Some made money and some didn't. [03:30] Dan was building websites at 13. When he was about 13, Dan was a fan of professional wrestling and wanted to keep up with stories and who had won matches, but he found that a lot of the smaller federations had no websites. He became the web guy for some of the smaller federations and then branched out to some of the wrestlers directly. From there, he began to build websites for other (usually sports-related) businesses. [05:30] Dan cofounded Podcast Movement. Dan is one of four co-founders of Podcast Movement, the largest conference in the world specifically for podcasters. Podcast Movement was started in 2014 and doubled in size in 2015. Small regional meetings have grown organically to serve additional segments of the podcasting community. These smaller events capture the essence of Podcast Movement on a small scale. The next thing is a six-day cruise for business podcasters. [10:05] Dan has started two podcasts. Dan's two podcasts are Entrepreneur Showdown and Men Seeking Tomahawks. Entrepreneur Showdown was his first podcast (now dormant). He and his co-host were trying to get away from generic podcasts about entrepreneurs in an attempt to get different information out of their guests. They did this by picking a topic the guest had recently covered and using that as the topic for the interview. Men Seeking Tomahawks is nothing about business and best described as guy-talk; surprisingly, they found that many women listen too. [13:10] Dan is a Certified Public Account (CPA). Dan previously worked at one of the big four international accounting firms but now works for a mid-sized, tax-only accounting firm in Dallas. He scaled down to work with entrepreneurs and small business owners. He works with clients on tax, payroll filings, payroll maintenance, and bookkeeping. [16:50] What is an entrepreneur's formula for accounting disaster? What are some of the stupidest things entrepreneurs do as far as accounting is concerned, and what is the best formula for creating a disaster? [17:05] The number one mistake is combining business and personal finances. From the beginning, open a business account or at least a separate personal account (or even a credit card) that is only for business. This will keep you out of a lot of trouble. The last thing you want is to have everything mingled together. Keep a clean paper trail. [18:45] Consult with an attorney and a CPA. At least at the beginning stages, consult with both a CPA and an attorney. Get started in the right direction. [19:55] What's the best way to find a good accountant? Word of mouth is the best way to find an accountant. Talk to people. Do your due diligence to make sure you get along with them. Currently, there is nothing on a large scale available to help you find professionals. [21:25] What are the considerations for virtual versus local CPAs? What are the advantages and disadvantages of working with local versus virtual CPAs? It is now so easy to work with someone virtually that the question now is not so much “can I” as “should I.” It comes down to personal preference. There are so many collaboration tools now that it's easy. Just make sure that whoever you work with is familiar with the local restrictions and rules for your location. Make sure you understand your filing obligations. [26:15] Lawyers and accountants see entities differently. A lawyer is going to advise concerning entity types and the corresponding legal protections. The CPA will tell you the tax ramifications of each type of entity. What works from a legal perspective may not work from a tax perspective. An attorney's role is to help you put together and file the legal documents to form an entity. A CPA will work with you to get the taxes in order and maintain things going forward. Make sure you know the difference between your state's entity types versus the IRS's entity types. You might not get this conversation if you only talk to an attorney. From the IRS's perspective, you can be one of four things: (1) a sole proprietor, (2) a partnership, (3) a C-corporation, (4) or an S-corporation. An LLC can be treated as any one of these four. [33:00] An S-corporation is sometimes the best of both worlds. The S-corporation is sort of a combination of the C-corporation and the partnership. The big distinction with an S-corporation, and where many people get in trouble, is also the greatest benefit. As an owner in an S-corporation, you are treated as both an employee of the business and an owner and are paid by the company in two different ways. You are paid wages as an employee and dividends or distributions as an owner. Wages are subject to self-employment taxes, Social Security and Medicare, dividends are not subject to these. The tax benefit can be significant, but there is also additional complexity (cost) required to maintain an S-corporation. A competent CPA will be able to help you keep the books, do payroll administration filings, and file taxes. If you can accept the additional fees, then the burden is not much more than a sole proprietorship. [38:50] How can we be Zen-like in our path to accounting bliss? If the money makes sense, have a CPA or bookkeeper take care of things. As a business owner, don't do your own books. Your time is better invested in building your business. Focus on what's actually making you the money. If you can afford it, have a power team around you. [42:00] What are Dan's recommendations for success? Jump in with both feet. Fail fast if necessary. Learn hands-on. Immerse yourself. Consume all the information you can get your hands on. Resources Mentioned DanFranks.me - Dan Franks' personal website.

On today’s show, Dallas Morning News pop music critic Hunter Hauk and News staff writer Brandon Formby help us overanalyze things. Formby attempts to explain “Deez Nutz” and how Snoop Dogg and Dallas' Central Expressway are involved. Then, the fifth edition of the homegrown indie music festival Gorilla Vs. Bear is this Friday with headliner Jamie xx. We talk about why this may be the smartest indie music showcase being produced today. Next, Podcast Movement, the world's largest podcaster conference hits Fort Worth this weekend. We get a preview with co-founder Dan Franks and talk about the state of podcasting today. Hunter Hauk will also tell us about his new “music-minded” podcast, "Listening." Finally, are introverts the new extroverts? A story in The New York Times style section declares being introverted is cool — and apparently big business. We break it down and even do our own Myers-Briggs Type Indicator exams.

The future of podcasting is more than "more": more podcasts, more podcasters, more money, more Android/iPhone, etc. I presented this as the opening keynote for Podcast Midwest 2015 in Chicago. Big thanks to Dan Franks and Jared Easley for inviting me to speak.

Top 11 Takeaways From Podcast Movement 2014   Podcast Movement 2014 was held in Dallas, Texas August 16th & 17th. For an inaugural event, PM14 was well run and full of great information. The guys did an amazing job putting it together.   Earlier this year, Dan Franks reached out to me and asked if I would present a session at PM14. I was truly honored. My session on the power of storytelling went over very well. Many people came to the stage after my session to tell me how useful they found the information. I really appreciated the feedback.   I am already looking forward to Podcast Movement 2015 in Fort Worth, Texas.   My notebook filled with great notes from PM14. On this episode, I want to share with you my 11 top takeaways from the event. I hope these spark a little something in your to move your podcast forward and transform your content.   1. Have a plan to make money. This came from Chris Brogan's Keynote “Podcasting As A Business Driver”. If you want to support your habit/hobby, have a plan to generate income. This could be from your product, service or other income stream. Figure out how to cover your cost at a minimum.   2. Copy = Pale Imitation = Ignored. Srinivas Rao offered this insight in his Keynote “Genuine Curiosity – The Fuel Behind The Fire”. Chris Brogan said, “No one ever won a race looking sideways.” Be brave and have the courage to be unique. Tell some great stories.   3. What is your brand personality? Who are you really and who do your clients need you to be? Kristin Thompson asked these questions during her session “Rock Your Talk & Profit Big … Beyond The Podcast”. Define your brand personality. Then, thread it through everything you do.   4. Don't use white in your logo. This was mentioned during “Top Podcasters Share Three Success Secrets For Podcasting”. It was a panel discussion with Michael Stelzner, Cliff Ravenscraft, and Chris Brogan. If you want it to stand out in iTunes store, get rid of the white. Make your logo pop.   5. Involve others. During his session “10 Ways to Take Your Podcast From Average To Amazing”, Daniel J. Lewis suggested you use interviews, conversations, and shared presentations to get others involved with your show. Empower your audience to share your content. Delegate others to help you achieve tasks.   6. #1 goal of podcast marketing is opt-in. Tim Paige mentioned this in his session “The Top 7 Ways To Grow Your Podcast And Turn Listeners Into Leads”. We've heard it many times that the money is in the list. Use your podcast to grow your list every opportunity that you get.   7. Think of your avatar in the car or excercising. What can you provide to make the experience better? This was a great piece of advice from Jaime Tardy during her Keynote “The Future Of Podcasting”. If you want to connect and engage with your audience, put yourself in their shoes.   8. Learn what the knobs do. To learn your equipment and what it does, press record and narrate your actions as you turn knobs. Hear how it sounds. This was a tip offered by Dave Jackson in his session “The Art Of Editing Audio – Finding The Diamond In The Rough”. What better way to figure out what all of those knobs do other than tinkering with it.   9. Ask your tribe questions about what they struggle with. Jessica Kupferman's session was titled “Your Commmunity Of Kindred Spirits: Why, How and When To Build One”. She offered this tidbit while helping us discover the power and connection of a community.   10. Give your guests resources to promote your show after they are on. This came during a panel discussion called “Promote Your Podcast The Right (And Unique) Way”. If you want your guests to promote your show after they appear, make it easy for them. Give them graphics, quotes or audio clips they can use to help spread the word.   11. Comfort and awesome usually do not overlap. I loved this line. It was another from Chris Brogan during his Keynote “Podcasting As A Business Driver”. Be brave. Try something new. Be unique. Have the courage to step out and tell personal stories that cannot be copied. That's when you'll get noticed. Don't be comforable. Be awesome.     I'd love to help you with your podcast. E-mail any questions or comments you might have to Coach@PodcastTalentCoach.com.   You can also find other tools including worksheets, a workbook and videos to help you create great content at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com.     Let's turn your information into engaging entertainment.

Todays guest entrepreneur joining us on the Join Up Dots business interview is a man who is taking huge action, as he is one of the co-founders of the Podcast Movement. A huge conference bringing together the movers and shakers of the podcasting world. The legends behind the microphones. The names you see scattered across ITunes. Commencing on the 16th August in Dallas Texas, the size of this thing must have been a hell of an undertaking. Especially for someone who it seems to me has built up the bulk of his career success in the work of Tax returns and balance sheets. But as he says "I am a lifetime serial entrepreneur, and have always been a self starter that takes the proverbial bull by the horns." And this passion for the startup, has helped him develop great relationships with clients which allow them to focus in on the value side of the business and leave..lets face it the boring side of the business with our guest. That is a partnership made in heaven I would have thought. So how did he get together with Jared Easley his co-partner and gain the motivation to start the Podcast Movement? Does he actually find doing tax returns interesting? And even if he says he does I wont believe him! Well lets find out as we bring onto the show to start joining up the dots of his life with the one and only, Mr Dan Franks

About Today's Guest The Sales Podcast Dan Franks Session 72 ( http://www.thesaleswhisperer.com/session72 ) *Podcast Movement founder, Dan Franks,* is a former wrestler turned CPA turned entrepreneur turned podcast expert turned major conference creator, promoter and host. Hear the rest of his story on The Sales Podcast Session ( http://thesaleswhisperer.com/session72/ ) 72 ( http://thesaleswhisperer.com/session72/ ). Tools To Thrive * *Bluehost* ( http://www.bluehost.com/track/tsw ) : I've tried them all - GoDaddy, Hostable, HostGator, etc. All were good and bad. In December 2013 I took a long hard look at Bluehost ( http://www.bluehost.com/track/tsw ) , and what I found was nothing short of amazing. Their free domain service with the purchase of hosting, their 1-click WordPress setup and great customer service is what every new blogger and entrepreneur needs. Use this link for The Sales Whisperer discount ( http://www.bluehost.com/track/tsw ). Rubber-Meets-The-Road Tip Started online 15 years ago when he was 13 by building websites for wrestlers in Texas. Now he's a CPA. Co-founded Podcast Movement Works for a small CPA firm in Dallas but they are very flexible and treat him as an “employeepreneur.” (Chris Brogan word.) He attended a PodCamp in Dallas in the summer of 2013 and 20-30 people attended with a few speakers and he met Mitch Todd and Gary Leland ( http://garyleland.com ) who became his partners in Podcast Movement. They saw their “ah-ha” moment when they realized not enough emphasis was placed on podcasting at New Media Expo in Las Vegas January 2014. They decided to Crowd Source it via Kickstarter to fund Podcast Movement. Launched Kickstarter in early February with a 30-day goal. Found a building for $10,000 to rent and Kickstarter takes 10% so they shot for $11,000. They got their money in 24 hours and went up to $33,000 thereafter! (Learn about crowd-sourcing via The Sales Podcast Episode 54 ( http://thesaleswhisperer.com/session52/ ).) So they vetted their idea and hit the ground running. Philip Taylor is the organizer of the FinCon Conference and helping them out. His conference has grown tremendously so Philip urged them to not try to make a profit the first year. Roll the proceeds into building the infrastructure to grow this into a great conference. People loved networking at New Media Expo but were bummed at how many ancillary events were going on that forced them to pick and choose so Podcast Movement is focused on throwing a central party/networking event at The House of Blues for a great event with free drinks, free food and buses to take you to the bar. People attending New Media Expo also complained at having to spend a ton of money to watch all of the sessions so they are including that in the ticket price. Dan has learned that they need to ask people what they are interested in and give them what they want. There are so many generic podcasts out there like “all entrepreneurs” or “anyone with a dream.” You need to niche down. Make money in podcasting by getting clear on your niche. The daily podcast might be a little overdone. Don't think you can replicate this like John Lee Dumas. (Vernon Foster is an event organizer in Florida and was doing a daily show and he had great content and he got burned out and went from 7 to 3 days per week and now he hasn't put out an episode in a month.) You have to enjoy it and want to do it. Get specific. Niche down. Dan has learned how to guard his time as his goals have expanded. He can't help everyone that just sends him an email.
