Every podcaster on the planet wants a bigger audience. Unquestioned. But most of us start out with a great idea for a podcast (at least we think so), grab a mic, plug it in, hit the record button, and we start talking.
We don’t start where we SHOULD start - with knowledge of the audience we want to speak to.
Why is that so important? To answer the question I’ve asked Tommy Walker to be my guest on this episode. Tommy has vast experience in Content Marketing (which is what podasting is) and the principles he’s learned there apply directly - almost across the board - to podcasting.
Listen up. Take notes. Work hard to understand what Tommy’s sharing. It could grow your audience like nothing else.
