Ash and Kane dive into how podcasters can expand their niche show without losing their core audience. They discuss the importance of starting niche, building a loyal following, and gradually broadening your content by interviewing guests slightly outside your niche. They also share their own experiences and offer valuable insights on how to make the transition successfully while maintaining your credibility and authority.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Start with a niche podcast to build a loyal audience and establish your authority in the space
• Gradually expand your content by interviewing guests slightly outside your niche who can provide valuable insights related to your topic
• Leverage your niche audience to attract sponsors who are willing to pay more for targeted advertising
• When interviewing guests outside your niche, position yourself as the student and allow them to be the teacher
• Test different formats and guests to see what resonates with your audience before increasing the volume of broader content
• Choose to expand into areas where you have the most knowledge, connections, or potential for monetisation
• Ask your listeners for feedback on which direction they'd like to see your podcast expand
• As you broaden your content, ensure you can still connect the dots between the guest's expertise and your core audience's interests

BEST MOMENTS

"Build that relationship with your audience so that they will listen to whoever you talk to, like, Chris Williamson has probably got a massive audience of people that listen to all of his interviews, and instead of coming for the interview, they're coming for him."

"You can talk to people outside of your niche once you've built that audience who are going to follow you wherever you go."

"You can start to go into those spaces without positioning yourself as the expert and then being more of the inquisitor. So, we know a bit about that. We know a bit about all of these different areas, but we can then start to broaden out to content marketing and our listeners will know that if we're talking about podcasting, it's us providing all the value."

"Just recapping that start niche build your loyal following by taking the following from somebody else So, if we're podcasting for podcasters, great, let's go to the podcast show, let's go to podcast support groups on Facebook, etc."
