Episode description

Can you actually make money from podcasting?

In this episode, I answer one of the most common questions new podcasters ask...how do you make money from a podcast?

The truth is, most podcasts don’t make a dime but that doesn't mean it's not possible for your show.

You just need the right strategy, the right audience and the right expectations.

To help you get to that point, I break down what actually works, what to avoid, and why ads aren’t the only (or best) way to monetise your show.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why ads aren’t the answer for most shows
  • Creative ways to monetise with a small audience
  • How to use your podcast to sell products and services
  • Why audience value always comes before income
  • The platforms and tools that make monetisation easier
