It used to be that podcast downloads were the main data point podcasters would use to track their growth. The thinking was, get X amount of downloads per month and sponsors will jump at you with wallets full of cash. While that may have been the way back in the day, today's success metrics looks a lot different when it comes to podcast success.
In this special live recording of In & Around Podcasting from PodSummit YYC 2024 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Danny is joined by Kattie Laur and Tim Truax to talk about how you can take advantage of them, and reframe your thinking and discussion around monetization and sponsorship.
Takeaways:
- The podcasting industry is evolving, and metrics should extend beyond just downloads.
- Engaged listeners are more valuable than sheer download numbers when seeking sponsorships.
- Indie podcasters should focus on local sponsorships to create meaningful monetization opportunities.
- Understanding your audience's engagement can help shape your content and sponsorship strategies.
- Value for value models allow listeners to support creators without traditional sponsorships.
- Experimenting with different ad formats can improve listener retention and engagement rates.
