Alex Sanfilippo is an entrepreneur, SaaS Founder, and Podcast Host. He is the CEO of PodPros, a software company specifically focused on independent podcast hosts and their guests to elevate their voices through podcasting and be heard.   In his 15 years in the aerospace industry, Alex worked his way from taking out the trash up to the C-Suite. When he was told to stop the above-and-beyond initiative, he realized it was time for a major change. After an initial struggle, Alex identified a better equation for entrepreneurship and he was on his way to real success.   Alex's equation is simple. Find an area of passion, get into the community of that area of passion, find a problem that they are struggling with, and then offer the fastest possible solution to that problem. When you focus on that problem, and your ability to solve it, you differentiate yourself in a way that allows you to stand out.   Potential customers will tell you what their pain points are, and when they are, and your job is to solve it. When you do, and they put their money where their pain is, you've got a standout business that is going to make things happen.   Interview Links: PodPros   Resources: Growth Navigator Coaching Scaling Up Summits (Select Bill Gallagher as your coach during registration for a discount.)

But podcasting, to me, is the ultimate solution right now for getting a voice heard and elevated throughout the world, that it can really change somebody's life. I've had stories from listeners. I have a lot of friends that have stories from listeners that are all around the world focused on something really specific, saying this is the one thing I've been searching for, couldn't find it anywhere except for your podcast. That type of thing, I believe, is what makes the world a better place. And sure, pat on the back for Alex or whatever you want to say, but, like I, am devoted to serving the world in that way.” -- Alex Sanfilippo This episode's the second half of my conversation with veteran podcaster, PodPros founder, and entrepreneur Alex Sanfilippo as we talk about what to do and not to do when starting a podcast, the latest developments on PodPros and Alex's series of podcasting apps, and both the risks and opportunities that podcasting's explosion into the mainstream offers for creators.As always, if you have questions for my guest, you're welcome to reach out through the links in the show notes.

(0:00:01) - Podcasting Tips and Problem SolvingAs the second half of our discussion begins, we talk about handling an overabundance of content, and how we both happened upon the solution of devoting two episodes to a guest.“But every word he said was gold,” he recalls about one early guest on his show, “like, what do I do? Right, broken into two episodes. So, Jodi, I love that you do it: that's a pro-level hack right there.” We also talk about our early podcasting days and how tricky it can be finding the right topic and your most authentic voice as a podcaster. “I know all of us have to develop our voice,” Alex says. “I think you can really only discover it by using it often, or at least that's probably the fastest way to discover where you're at.” (0:06:46) - Podcast Solutions and Industry GrowthOur conversation turns to Alex's Podcasting Made Simple show and the reasoning behind his Podmatch and Podscore apps for podcasters. “The whole idea,” he explains, “is can we help them make the whole process less stressful and more organized through some project manager software that doesn't take time to learn, something really easy, specifically for releasing episodes, and we help them get more reviews.” He talks about his belief in the power of podcasting to connect and help people all over the world, and about the mission that drives him as both a podcaster and app designer: “that's really my whole mission behind it, it's just: can we continue to make this thing possible for podcasters?” (0:11:13) - Impact of Podcasting and Changing TrendsWe also talk about how podcasting has broken into the mainstream and...

“Usually my podcast, I'd say, I probably say eight months of the year, it has no advertisement at all. But that way, when I do place it in, it's on every single episode, and it's there just for a short time to really pique someone's interest, cause they're like ‘This is different. What is this?'"“Yeah, that's a really good option. Yeah, I like the dynamic insertion at the very beginning too, because people are that's when they're you've got them hooked. They're there to listen, so you may as well. Yeah, that's a really good option.” -- Alex Sanfilippo This episode's guest is an entrepreneur as well as the CEO and founder of PodPros, a podcasting software company.

(0:00:01) - A Journey Into PodcastingAs the episode starts, we talk about how a sore throat forced Alex to postpone his first appearance on the show, and how Audio Branding just recently crossed its 200th episode milestone. “I can just tell you off the head,” he says, “because I just looked at these numbers. So, at the time of recording this, you have just under a 6% chance of making it to 200 episodes.” Alex also tells us about the hearing difficulties he suffered as a child and the surprising chiropractic treatment that helped him recover. We talk about children's audio dramas like Adventures in Odyssey, and how they captured his imagination in a way that TV shows never quite managed. “But whenever it was audio only,” he says,” I would create the visions myself and I think that a lot of my creativity is owed to those moments.” (0:05:15) - Podcasting and Software for PodcastersAlex tells us about his first encounter with podcasting, and how skeptical he was that anyone would just listen to a voice recording on a computer. “That'll never work,” he remembers saying. He quickly changed his mind, though, as he began to listen for himself: “From that moment on,” he tells us, “I was like, ‘I love this, I hope it never goes away.'" We talk about how he began researching software and equipment during his early days of podcasting straight from his car, and the importance of not only having the right message but using the right words to express that message. “A picture is worth a thousand words,” Alex says, “and I always say, ‘but the right words are priceless.'

CASTNEWS #034 - Os impactos da greve de roteiristas e atores no podcast americano

ABERTURA SEGUNDA-FEIRA, 25 DE SETEMBRO DE 2023. EU SOU LEO LOPES ESTÁ NO AR MAIS UMA EDIÇÃO DO CASTNEWS, O PODCAST SEMANAL QUE EM 15 MINUTOS DEIXA VOCÊ INFORMADO SOBRE TUDO O QUE ACONTECE DE MAIS IMPORTANTE NO MERCADO DE PODCASTS NO BRASIL E NO MUNDO. Escalada Os resultados de uma pesquisa sobre os impactos da greve de roteiristas e atores no podcast americano, um relatório sobre o cenário dos podcasts de entrevista e diversos anúncios de novos recursos por várias plataformas de produção de podcast estão entre as principais notícias que você vai ouvir nesta 34ª edição do Castnews! NOTÍCIAS 1 – Pra começar o programa de hoje, a gente vai comentar mais uma vez sobre a greve dos roteiristas e produtores audiovisuais que está acontecendo em Hollywood, e que também tem impacto no mercado de podcasts. Uma pesquisa recente feita pela The Cumulus Media e a Westwood One mostrou que a greve afetou com muita força o consumo de mídia nos Estados Unidos. Segundo o estudo, 80% dos americanos estão cientes da greve, especialmente o público de meia-idade. Entre os conscientes, 27% do público planeja assistir menos TV nos próximos meses, e quase 70% dessas pessoas pretende migrar o tempo de entretenimento para podcasts, rádio e streaming de música. Com isso, o estudo também destacou a importância do áudio no mercado atual, e sugeriu que as empresas separem 20% do orçamento de publicidade para  rádio e podcasts, porque essa decisão vai aumentar o alcance do canal, independente do tamanho do orçamento. 2 – Na última terça-feira a Acast anunciou uma parceria com o Slip.Stream, uma grande plataforma de músicas royalty free – ou seja, livres de direitos autorais – que vai garantir aos podcasters usuários da Acast acesso a mais de 70 mil músicas para inclusão em podcasts. 100 mil criadores da Acast vão receber o acesso “Pro Level” de forma totalmente gratuita por seis meses, com a opção de atualização para o plano anual Pro por 8 dólares depois desse período. Essa colaboração é bem importante pra Acast, visto que segundo dados da própria plataforma, 74% dos ouvintes preferem podcasts que usam música para definir o tom e o clima de um episódio, e mais de 60% preferem anúncios de podcasts que sejam sonorizados com música. Com certeza vai facilitar bastante a vida dos editores de podcast ter esse catálogo aberto, além de ser uma boa jogada de marketing, já que em seis meses de teste, o usuário pode entender na prática o quão mais fácil é trabalhar com uma boa fonte de trilhas que não vão dar problemas de copyright depois. 3 – E o Spotify anunciou a primeira edição do Spotify Podcast Festival, que vai acontecer dia 4 de novembro no Instituto Tomie Ohtake, no bairro de Pinheiros, em São Paulo. Como o Brasil é um polo gigante de criação e consumo de podcasts, o Spotify planejou esse evento pra promover o encontro entre fãs e podcasters, com palestras e sessões ao vivo com criadores de conteúdo. A venda dos ingressos vai começar no dia 4 de outubro. Até o fechamento desse episódio, ainda não tinham sido divulgados os valores dos ingressos ou a plataforma de vendas. Mas, pra garantir, acessa a notícia lá no portal do Castnews em castnews.com.br, que a gente vai atualizar a cada novidade que aparecer. AINDA EM NOTÍCIAS DA SEMANA: 4 – A empresa PodPros lançou um relatório que analisa o cenário dos podcasts de entrevista, e trouxe alguns dados interessantes: de todos os mais de 2 milhões de podcasts de entrevistas que existem, apenas cerca de 13% estão ativos, e só 1,3% deles se encaixam nos critérios dos “podcasts ativamente estabelecidos”, ou seja, aqueles que tem mais de 100 episódios, e que são lançados a cada 10 dias ou menos. Além disso, o relatório também destacou que se o podcast tiver 468 downloads nos primeiros 7 dias depois do lançamento, só isso já coloca o programa entre os 10% melhores da categoria. Quer saber mais? O conteúdo completo pode ser consultado em inglês no site da PodPros, e traduzido no portal do Castnews. 5 – E a Microsoft, o MIT, e o Project Gutenberg estão trabalhando em uma colaboração pra lançar audiolivros narrados por inteligência artificial. Esses livros foram escritos por autores nascidos até 1928, e agora estão disponíveis com vozes sintéticas de alta qualidade, para serem ouvidos gratuitamente no Apple Podcasts, Spotify e por download no site do projeto.  O objetivo é tornar a literatura mais acessível e democratizar o acesso a conteúdo de qualidade para os amantes de audiolivros em todo o mundo. 6 – O Google abriu as inscrições para a terceira edição do GNI Startups Lab 2023, um projeto que apoia iniciativas de jornalismo em estágio inicial. Quinze projetos escolhidos vão receber três mil dólares e participar de um programa de 8 semanas, que inclui algumas reuniões presenciais no escritório do Google em São Paulo. Os cinco melhores projetos também podem ganhar US$10.000 extras para impulsionar seus negócios. Este ano, o Startups Lab tá buscando por projetos que estejam bem no começo e que foquem em notícias locais ou temas específicos, como meio ambiente, ciência, igualdade de gênero e raça. Então se você está começando um novo podcast jornalístico e achou interessante, as inscrições podem ser feitas até 15 de outubro através do formulário disponível no site oficial, cujo link você encontra lá no Castnews. 7 – A plataforma de hospedagem de podcasts RSS.com anunciou novidades na atualização de seu site, incluindo páginas de podcasts públicas atualizadas e melhorias nas páginas de episódios. Além disso, os players de podcasts também foram aprimorados com recursos de scroll automático, marcadores de tempo e botões de avanço e retrocesso em 15 ou 30 segundos. A colaboração entre times também foi refinada, e proprietários de podcasts pagos podem convidar até 10 colaboradores com funções específicas. A RSS.com oferece planos mensais a partir de $4,99. E MAIS: 8 – A atualização do iOS 17 trouxe novas melhorias para o Apple Podcasts. A seção “Reproduzindo Agora”, agora tem controles aprimorados para gerenciar a fila de reprodução, e também ganhou uma repaginada estética. Os filtros de pesquisa também foram melhorados para facilitar a busca por novos podcasts e a atualização permite a integração de assinaturas com outros aplicativos. Todos os novos recursos estão incluídos no iOS 17, iPadOS 17, macOS 14, watchOS 10 e tvOS 17. 9 – E por falar em atualização da Apple, a RØDE, empresa de equipamentos profissionais de áudio, aconselhou os usuários a não atualizarem seus Macs para o macOS Sonoma devido a problemas de compatibilidade. A atualização resulta na incapacidade dos Macs de reconhecerem produtos RØDE devido a uma limitação de compatibilidade com dispositivos de áudio certificados MFi. Os Macs com M1 e M2 não são afetados. A atualização do macOS Sonoma está prevista pra ser lançada amanhã, dia 26 de setembro, e a RØDE recomenda evitar a atualização até que eles recebam uma resposta da Apple sobre o problema. 10 – E nas dicas de produção da semana do Castnews, nós temos um artigo sobre as avaliações do seu podcast. Se você tem um bom conteúdo, já é meio caminho andado, mas existem dicas que podem ajudar a impulsionar o seu programa através das avaliações dos seus ouvintes. Quer saber como fazer isso? Então acesse o portal do Castnews e leia a matéria na íntegra.  Eu já te adianto aqui que as avaliações não só aumentam a visibilidade e a credibilidade do seu podcast, como também servem pra você saber tudo o que a sua audiência tá pensando, então é um recurso que vale muito a pena utilizar. 11 – Além disso, na última semana também tivemos opinião profissional da analista de áudio Annie Langston sobre análise de podcasts. Ela recomenda que os criadores de conteúdo olhem além dos downloads e do número de ouvintes na hora de pensar em abrir spots publicitários no programa, e também que os produtores de podcast não subestimem o potencial do vídeo.  Não deixe de conferir os insights da Annie também lá no portal, porque nunca é tarde demais pra estar informado sobre o potencial do seu programa. HOJE NO GIRO SOBRE PESSOAS QUE FAZEM A MÍDIA:  12 – O videocast Ouça Mais Alto, apresentado pela Melina López e produzido pelo Google Cloud, foi selecionado como um dos finalistas no Prêmio Diversidade em Prática 2023. A premiação é promovida pela empresa Blend Edu, de tecnologia de recursos humanos, e reconhece casos e projetos de Diversidade, Equidade e Inclusão no ambiente corporativo. O Ouça Mais Alto é o único videocast que tá no páreo da competição, e os vencedores vão ser anunciados em um evento online gratuito que começa amanhã, dia 26 de setembro, e vai até sexta-feira, dia 29. Você pode conferir a programação completa do evento na página oficial do Prêmio Diversidade em Prática. SOBRE LANÇAMENTOS: 13 – O Superior Tribunal de Justiça (STJ) lançou o podcast “Contando Causas” para apresentar ao público as decisões judiciais em linguagem acessível. Cada episódio vai falar sobre temas como os direitos dos consumidores, o meio ambiente e a saúde, com especialistas e pessoas que estão envolvidas diretamente em cada tipo de caso. A ideia veio da equipe de comunicação do STJ, e desde então, eles têm trabalhado com jornalistas do tribunal para fazer o programa. O podcast já está disponível nas principais plataformas de streaming, com uma série de episódios que explicam tudo que o ouvinte precisa saber sobre corrupção. 14 – O GNT também lançou seu novo videocast “Par ou Ímpar”, apresentado por Maria Ribeiro, que vai promover conversas sobre diversos temas do cotidiano, com convidados que tenham opiniões diferentes. A primeira temporada vai até novembro e inclui convidados como Titi Müller, Aline Wirley e Milton Cunha. O videocast vai ao ar às segundas-feiras, às oito horas da noite nas principais plataformas de áudio, no Globoplay e também no canal do YouTube do GNT. 15 – E nessa edição também tem lançamento internacional: a série The Riddler: Secrets in the Dark, da Warner Bros., novo original do Spotify. A série vai apresentar uma aventura sob a perspectiva do Charada, um dos grandes vilões do Batman, que nesse projeto vai ser dublado por Hasan Minhaj. Os 8 episódios da série vão ser lançados no dia 10 de outubro exclusivamente no Spotify. Eu espero muito que eles tenham a intenção de produzir uma versão localizada em português, como aconteceu com Batman Unburied (que aqui se chama Batman Despertar), e inclusive já me coloco à disposição pra produzir essa adaptação. Spotify, olha eu aqui! RECOMENDAÇÃO NACIONAL:  16 –  E por falar em Batman, se você, assim como eu, é um fã dedicado do Homem-morcego, deve saber que no dia 16 de setembro foi celebrado o Batman Day, ou o “Dia do Batman”, e eu aproveito então pra tematizar a nossa recomendação nacional da semana indicando o podcast Mansão Wayne, apresentado pelos meus amigos André Pansera e Carlos Vázquez, entre outros participantes e convidados, que foi tema da minha coluna “Ouve esse aqui” esta semana no portal do Castnews. O podcast é produzido por uma equipe igualmente apaixonada por quadrinhos, e extremamente bem informada. A cada novo episódio a Mansão também recebe convidados super legais e gabaritados pra falar sobre tudo que envolve o universo de Gotham, a empresa DC Comics, e tudo de mais interessante no mundo do maior detetive do mundo. O podcast Mansão Wayne é publicado quinzenalmente e está disponível em todas as principais plataformas de podcast, então não deixa de conferir e assinar o feed no seu agregador preferido.
