Once you have set the table for your sponsors, how do you figure out what to serve up as the opportunities to partner together? Today, we are going to move closer toward landing those sponsorship sales by keeping my Thanksgiving dinner metaphor going.

And, your elements go well beyond just an audio ad in the episodes themselves. I will then walk you through how to organize those possible elements into packages that make sense, meet varying budgets, and create flexibility for you to even customize a particular partnership.

When you are ready to present yourself to a sponsor, how do you best represent yourself and your show to land those partnerships?

Episode 85: Creating Your Media Kit, with John Jay Wiley (Podcasting 102)
No matter how many episodes and downloads you have, you won’t be ready to secure sponsorships and monetize, if you don’t have the correct materials at your fingertips. And, the most critical of these is your media kit, because you need to be able to present the story of you and your podcast (your BRAND) at a glance--like a quick snapshot. So, you need a packet that you can hand over, include as an attachment in an email, or provide a link to, in order to give a potential partner an immediate and good sense of three things: 1) who you are, 2) what your show is about, and 3) who your audience is. You need to instantly relay the value of your audience as their customer base and your compatibility for solving that sponsor’s pain points. So, now that you know WHY you need one, listen in to my conversation on creating your media kit with my Professional Podcasting Peer Guest, John Jay Wiley of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. We not only get into how to put one together, but you will be amazed at all of the partnership and monetization potential a great media kit can bring–especially when you hear John’s results!

AI (Artificial Intelligence) has long-impacted what we do as podcasters.

Also, much of how we have interacted with AI has been mostly out of our control–such as how the discoverability algorithms work on the different podcast platforms.

Episode 64: (Re)Visiting Your Launch Trifecta (Podcasting 101)
What is the most important consideration when launching a podcast? This question was posed to me recently, and I thought my trifecta answer of your why, your ecosystem, and your plate was applicable to all podcasters–whether you are preparing for episode 1, 100, or 1,000 of your show. In order to be sure you are hitting your audience and content targets, you need to look at your show with fresh eyes every-so-often. And, that is what we are going to do today. I will explain the different sides of the all-important “why” question, breakdown the various pieces of your ecosystem, and help you figure out how much of your plate you can devote to your show moving forward. And, along the way, I reveal my thoughts on all three for myself, and how they impacted the changes you are going to experience with the future of this show. At the end of this episode, you will be able to orient (or, reorient) your podcast–just like I have–to hit its full potential! It’s my next Podcasting 101 topic kicking off Season 3 for you today.

From there, I will give you a roadmap for tapping into your resources to prime your show’s format for monetization and share various ways to monetize your show above and beyond packing it full of ads and turning off your listeners. Come discover several, less-obvious ways to monetize your podcast platform and optimize the return on investment with every episode. It’s my next Podcasting 102 topic ready to roll for you today.
