Who Are Superlisteners?

They find Sleep With Me either helps them fall asleep quickly or listen through the night, impacting their lives meaningfully.

Three ways below to vote yes to keep the show going. This vote is only for super listeners. For people whose lives are changed by the podcast on a regular basis. If you are new to the show or only listen once in a while, do not worry. We just need the people who benefit the most from the podcast to support it.

DOING NOTHING AT ALL is a vote to stop making the show.

Should I keep making the podcast?

Yes I'm going to sign up at www.sleepwithmepodcast.com/tryplus -the ultimate way to listen to the show, sign up for a 7-day free trial

Yes I'm going to sign up at www.sleepwithmepodcast.com/refer

Yes keep the show going, I'm not interested in supporting the show but I want you to keep making it so I will fill out the form at www.sleepwithmepodcast.com/nothanks

If you do nothing, you are voting for me to just stop making the show.

That's it. Making a choice on whether to support the show or not is the message I need to keep the show going. Even choosing to vote I'm not going to support the show, is a YES to me to keep making the podcast.

There are about 20,000 superlisteners who listen to the free podcast, out of hundreds of thousands of listeners.

Superlisteners listen all night long, or fall asleep fast, or listen four or more nights per week have listened for six months, or even longer, years and years. The podcast is a part of their life.

And this summer, we’re asking just 1,500 of you to support the show again by joining Sleep With Me Plus.

I wonder how many of you are reading this and thinking, "YES, I'm a superlistener!"

The truth is… the show can’t keep going without your support.

By July listener support and ads will no longer cover the costs it takes to make the show. And if we don’t reach this summer’s goal, we’ll have to slow down, scale back, and change what we do.

If this show helps you, even a little, I hope you’ll say YES I VALUE the show so much I got out of bed to support it back at sleepwithmepodcast.com/plus

Thanks again,
