Episode notes

You need quantity to get to quality. You'll identify those nuances that exist on every type of medium. Every different channel has its own version of that and many versions of that. It's creating this flywheel of content from one single clip on a podcast. We've been doing a lot better job of this recently where, so we have a podcast. Probably does about 10,000 listens or downloads per episode right now.

How did Thomas Shields go from writing a small pickleball newsletter with nothing more than a MailChimp account, a “shitty” website, and a few Facebook subscribers to creating a comprehensive sports channel where 50% of its partners are inbound advertisers?

By getting scrappy.

Thomas talks with Daniel about the importance of just getting out there and doing it rather than worrying about your brand’s initial traction, how to grow a newsletter audience, and why content volume is more critical to your success than anything else.
