Today I'm answering a question that I get a lot:
How can entertainment-only podcasts grow their audience and monetize?
I'll admit— I usually focus this show on "how to" podcasts because they can be easier to grow and monetize.
However, that doesn't mean that the techniques I teach here can't still be applied to an entertainment-style show.
In fact, the strategies I teach here can be equally as effective for entertainment shows.
The main difference is HOW the tactics are applied and how you prioritize your time.
Today, I'm going to address the similarities and differences between business podcasts and entertainment podcasts.
By the end of the episode, you'll know exactly how to apply my strategies to your entertainment podcast.
And, you'll have a list of the things you need to prioritize for growth and monetization success.
