Ash and Kane talk about two successful ways you can monetise your podcast pre-launch and at launch, either via sponsorship or launching with an offer. Make sure to check out episodes focused on the stages of launching a podcast for a more in-depth look at how to create an offer: https://omny.fm/shows/the-podcaster-s-podcast/how-to-launch-a-number-1-podcast-part-1 https://omny.fm/shows/the-podcaster-s-podcast/046-how-to-launch-a-number-1-podcast-part-2 KEY TAKEAWAYS It is more than possible to get good sponsorship deals before you launch your podcast. There are various business models out there that use a similar approach, such as festivals and start-ups. Approach pitching to sponsors like a partnership, show them what you can offer to them and what they will be getting out of working with you. Podcasting advertising gives the highest return on spend -vs- any other type of advertising, more than TV, social media, and YouTube. If you have a course, mastermind, mentoring or anything information based, this works great to give as a launch offer. Even if you don't have any of these things you can create a course or mentorship specifically as a subscribing bonus or prize.

Ash and Kane combat some of the biggest challenges podcasters face in this episode. They talk about how to manage your time as a podcaster, monetisation, how to get guests, how to eliminate common tech problems and how to ensure you have niched your podcast down effectively. KEY TAKEAWAYS Create a bank of content, so if you do find yourself with less time you can still put out episodes. You can use AI to give you content ideas or you can use your audience by asking what they would like to hear. Not having enough of a niche. Think about your strategy or/and your demographic and niche down as much as possible. A spreadsheet is a good way to organise researching and contacting guests, you can keep track of when and how you reached out to them and all info needed and continue to use the same sheet when a guest is on your show. Recording in a studio can make the whole process more enjoyable for you as a host but also eliminates tech problems. BEST MOMENTS "What we have found works is a niche within a niche” “If you wanna podcast and make the biggest impact, have the biggest views, probably make the most money and enjoy it the most…do it in a studio” “Monetisation is the biggest challenge” VALUABLE RESOURCES Website EPISODES TO CHECK OUT NEXT Comparing Podcast Production Options | using AI?

Marketing offers isn't about selling FEATURES, they're about OUTCOMES.If you're giving people more and more of your time and more and more resources and they're STILL not buying, it's because they don't understand what they're buying FOR.Information isn't inherently valuable, it's what you do with it that counts - that's where the marketing messaging comes in.That's your OUTCOME - the return on investment for all that studying and effort from the student.No-one wants more work, they want more RESULTS. Tangible, measurable results.Results that are going to change something for them.Now I know you may be hesitant to commit to specific results but those are based on your student doing all the work and following your advice and guidance to the letter.Not someone who doesn't do the work!And if you can't guarantee results for someone who does everything right, well, you need to work on getting your method nailed down so it works better :)Use this offer template to quickly produce offers that people really want and test them out in stories and posts to go from zero to high ticket FAST.-------Thanks for listening!

Try Riverside free now: https://creators.riverside.fm/PodcastersPodcast & Use code: Podcast15 for an exclusive 15% off. Ash and Kane discuss creative and unconventional ways to monetise your podcast beyond traditional approaches such as sponsorships and affiliates. From using content for investment opportunities to offering exclusive access to back catalogues they outline six innovative strategies they have seen from other successful podcasters. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some podcasters, like Alex Hormozi, use their content to build trust and expertise, enabling them to invest in businesses at favourable terms or acquire equity through consulting. Dan Carlin's Hardcore History podcast monetises by releasing only a few episodes per year and putting older episodes behind a Patreon paywall, generating over $40,000 monthly. The Lore podcast successfully expanded its intellectual property into books and TV shows, earning its creator an estimated $6 million annually from licensing deals. Some airlines license podcast episodes for in-flight entertainment, providing an additional revenue stream for creators like Steven Bartlett. The Detour podcast offers guided audio tours of cities, combining storytelling with real-world exploration for a unique listener experience. Being a podcast guest can be a monetisation strategy, allowing individuals to reach new audiences and promote their products or services without hosting their own show. Some podcasters charge guests to appear on their shows, particularly in niche markets or for locally focused content. The "Hey Mr. Jim" podcast created a branded physical product – a child-friendly radio that plays only their content, selling for £97 plus shipping. BEST MOMENTS "Dan goes to like, the extreme and he'll do, Three or four episodes a year. They're all about historic event, but they're like PHD level deep dive of one very specific historical event." "So the premise of this podcast is very similar to when you go to a gallery or museum. You put the headphones on and there's a guided tour." "Daniel Priestly does this really well. He guests on all sorts of podcasts and it's increased downloads of his software company score app massively." "Essentially, the way he monetised was marketing agencies or companies that wanted to sell to marketing agencies, basically anything in that ecosystem, they would pay to come on and he would ask them questions." "Kids all over the world wanted their characters to be in the stories and they wanted specific stories for them or they wanted to be in the stories. So because the parents just want their kids to go to bed and get what they want, you paid to join his Patreon." "You could be that trend you have like the opposite... for every like massive veganism group. You've got like the carnivores, right?"

Andrea interviews William Ruh, former CEO of Lendlease Digital and GE Digital, about leadership during digital transformation. William shares how cultural alignment and change management are critical for success, often more so than the technology itself. Rue also discusses the need for CEOs to be curious, keep learning, and pivot quickly in the face of increasing complexity. He talks about establishing strong partnerships with boards and maintaining personal resilience to handle the demands of leadership today. Leaders Show BRAND NEW YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC59dect0RJ5cuxIXsX7hCRw KEY TAKEAWAYS Digital transformation success depends heavily on cultural alignment and change management skills like communication, empathy and enrolment. Leaders should identify and partner with "the coalition of the willing" in the organisation to drive change rather than trying to change everyone at once. Monetisation strategy for digital innovation must be clear - either embedded in existing offerings or as a new line of business. Running an internal start-up has unique challenges - the speed of a start-up with the processes of an established business. With the increasing pace of change, CEO resilience, learning agility and the ability to quickly pivot strategy are critical leadership capabilities. Strong board relationships and a personal support system are essential to handle the pressures faced by modern CEOs. BEST MOMENTS "The soft skills are the most important thing. How you help the organisation through [digital transformation] is more important in some ways than what your technology is." "You've got to be able to make that cultural shift. Existing cultures and businesses often find it very difficult to embrace the change." "I realised that I'm responsible for seeing the world change. I'm responsible for learning gen AI...I'm responsible for figuring out where things are going." "If you're not good at managing your board, the board is going to manage you. So that is the challenge many CEOs definitely wrestle with." VALUABLE RESOURCES Like the show? Please leave or write a review on your favourite podcast platform!
