Stop Wasting Your Listeners' Time - and other lessons from Podcast Movement
Manage episode 502283883 series 2789163
Coming back from Podcast Movement, I've got a story that really drives home the point that nothing beats face-to-face networking. I mean, sure, we can all hop on Zoom and pretend we're connecting, but when you're actually sharing a meal with someone or just hanging out, that's where the magic happens. It's like the difference between texting your buddy and grabbing a beer – one is okay, but the other is where real connections are made. And let's be honest, who doesn't want to make meaningful connections while stuffing their face with overpriced convention center food?
Takeaways:
- Networking in person is way better than any online stuff, seriously, just trust me.
- Most podcasters are totally wasting their listeners' time with a simple fix in editing.
- Chapters are a cool tool to help listeners skip to what they actually want to hear.
- If you want your podcast to grow, you might need to jump into the Podcast Hot Seat.
- Cutting out unnecessary parts of interviews can save time and keep listeners happy, who knew?
- Feeling overwhelmed when starting a podcast is totally normal, like, welcome to the club.
