POPULARITY
Has Podcasting overtaken AM and FM Talk Radio? Well, yes and no.This is from Edison Research's Share of Ear Survey. In 2017, 66% of all spoken word audio was consumed over AM and FM radio. Only 13% of ears went to podcasts. Well fast forward to the second quarter of 2024. Talk Radio is at 43%, and Podcasts are catching up at 36%. But if we dig a little deeper, among ages 13-64, Podcasting has ALREADY surpassed AM/FM Talk Radio – 41% to 39%. So the only reason the radio still wins is the 65+ demo, who pick the radio 5-1 over podcasting. So while talk radio listeners are yelling “get off my lawn!” podcasting will catch up – if not this year, probably by 2025.This change will be accelerated by increased podcast discoverability. According to PodNews, Matthew Passy and the folks at Custom Podcast Solutions will be debuting an NFC-enabled Bluetooth Beacon. You can wear it on your wrist, and instead of telling someone to search, or scan a QR code, you can have them tap their phone to open your podcast. This is supposedly going to be on display at the Podcast Movement this August in DC., so I'll be sure to report back.Some Spotify-related news to close with this weekFirst, Spotify is ditching polls and adding comments to podcast episodes. And unlike Apple, you can approve comments, block trolls, and manage the comments on their new Spotify for Podcasters app, not to be confused with the Spotify App itself.And finally, Spotify is now bragging that they have 250,000 Video podcasts on their platform. I'm still leery of this – I don't want to use Spotify for Podcasters to access this tool, because I don't want Spotify to own my show. For me, I'm going to stick to producing an audio podcast via my RSS host, Simplecast, for Apple, Spotify, and more. And I'll put the video directly on YouTube, which has a much bigger audience than Spotify. And because these episodes are short, I'll keep posting the video directly on my social media channels via JAG in Detroit.Because each social media app's algorithm likes videos that keep people in their app. I'm more interested in getting my content to as many people in as many places as possible.

Welcome back to the 99th episode of the "Wealth Actually" Podcast . . . (We're recording right before Christmas and I'd like give a special thanks to Matthew Passy who helps me sound good and make the trains run on time.) With the end of the year fast approaching, philanthropy is on the minds of many people. For charitable organizations, the mad rush to meet their goals underscores many challenges they face. Understaffed, under-resourced, and using old tools, non-profits face an uphill climb every year. By using marketing technology, Artificial Intelligence and data science tools, a new company is trying to help with this problem. ARJUNA SOLUTIONS applies the same marketing concepts and data science found at the top consumer companies in the world to the non-profit space. To take us through the idea of how technology and the non-profit space can intersect, I'm going to speak to COLIN STEWART. Colin leads Arjuna's groundbreaking philanthropic practice, which enables nonprofits to adopt new technologies and increase revenue more easily via philanthropic funding. We focus on how non-profit organizations can increase their revenue through more data-driven and targeted asks. Finally, we talk about how HNW donors and charities can deepen their relationships and multiply the impact of major gifts in measurable ways through technology. OUTLINE: Technology and the Importance of Philanthropy ARJUNA SOLUTIONS background- What does Arjuna solve? How do you optimize the right amount to ask for so that you get the most out of a donor (without scaring them off)? Arjuna's ExactAsk process-Where does the Artificial Intelligence fit in? What data are you using? How do you manage the data to get the right ask amount?Where does it integrate with the recipient organizations systems?For which organizations is this right? (Large Donor Bases where there is plenty of data to analyze and marketing systems to optimize).How can the AI process help the donor amplify a large gift to an organization?- When multiplying the impact, Is this really a case of a $1 gift generating $3?What does the gift process look look like?Besides potentially more donations, how does it it help the charitable organization?How do you measure success? How does the client measure success?What's next?How do we stay in touch? COLIN STEWART https://www.amazon.com/Wealth-Actually-Intelligent-Decision-Making-1-ebook/dp/B07FPQJJQT/
