Speaker 2 (00:30):
Morning, Good morning, Good morning all my Gwenetians out there,
Gwenette Land, all of my friends are around the world.
It's a beautiful the here Winnett County forty eight degrees
going up to a high of seventy four. That's what
I'm talking about. That's what I've been looking for. It
was it was nice all weekend. It was It wasn't
it wasn't super cold, but it was nice and it's beautiful.
And I think it's gonna beautiful this weekend too, which

(00:50):
is cool because I think it's Saint Patrick's Day celebration Day,
which I like to attend because I like the people watch.
I like to see people. They just they be drinking
at Irish beer and that stuff is dark as I don't.
It's like it's like it's like coffee. Like I've seen
some beers when I go to the downtown Lawrenceville to
the festival. I've seen beers and they are so dark

(01:12):
they look like coffee, and I can just imagine how
you feel once you drink one. Anyway, it's a great
day here, and I hope you guys are having a
great day. I want to give a happy birthday shout out.
First I got a line of birthdays, and then I
get to the one that's today. I wanted to give
a happy birthday shout out these like past birthdays, it
was so many in March, my cousin days should Happy birthday, Darling,

(01:34):
my good friend Georgie at Happy Birthday, Georgia at Happy Birthday,
all the way to Heaven, to Miss Cross, Happy birthday,
all the way to Heaven to Grandma normally, and today,
Happy birthday, all the way to heave it to my
father Marion Belle. So a lot of March, a lot
of fish around me. I'm surrounded by fish. I went
to Georgia had a birthday gathering over the weekend, and

(01:55):
I think five of us in the room were pisces.
It was like crazy. It was like fish out. It
was like it was like fish all over the place.
You know what's interesting about that? If you go and
I know some people don't believe in horoscopes, that's cool,
you don't have to. I happen to because I believe
that ancient history tells us a lot. And for me,
I can negate ancient history. I know people want to
put throw it all aside. This this is that knowledge.

(02:17):
Ancient history. People learn these things and they share them
with us because they learn some kind of way and
they shared it with us. How do we get it anyway?
I digress from that because I can go on all
Let me just say this. There are so many mysteries
in the world right and I understand people have their
beliefs about things. But my thing is, why would you
stop your education in one spot and just believe one

(02:41):
thing when the world has so many mysteries. You know,
when it comes to horoscopes, I heard people say it's evil.
Why would horoscopes be evil? When I tell you, when
I listen to what a pisces is, ninety five percent
of it is true about me. It is the craziest
thing so I it's true when it says this is

(03:01):
how it is ninety percent if somebody has studied Okay,
let's say somebody studied that, and so these people this
is how they are ninety five percent of the time.
It's true about me. And I know there are people
who are always against the Bible. Always somebody, somebody before
the Biblical the Biblical verses were created, can't got this knowledge

(03:22):
and shared it with us. And I know that to
be true because we have millions and millions and millions
and millions of years of history that you just can't
negate and throw away because one because one set, one book,
you know, and one belief. But that you know, I digress.
That's what people want to do. That's what they gonna do. Anyway.
It was so many pisces in that room, and I

(03:43):
was like, and I know how we are, And I
was like, you know, we can. We can sniff out
things that ain't true. We have intuition about stuff, you know.
It's like that kind of thing, like you feel energy
from people. It's the craziest thing. So I can't even
imagine what they were all feeling because it was so
many of us in one room but anyway, let me
get on with this show. Today's show is about how

(04:05):
to start a podcast leveraging AI tools and one of
the topics that I wanted to get into because I
want people to understand and it's also it's also it
can also be a recession proof business. Now, let me
say this. The key term there is business. You have
to treat it like a business. And I'm telling you,
I'm not telling you this to to you know, to

(04:26):
put fear in your heart. I am telling you that
if this is a business, the podcast business is something
you want to get into, you must treat it like
a full time business. I can't tell you how many
times I say that to myself that good Morning Gwinette
is the long game for me, Like, no matter what
how many other pots my hands are, my hands are
in good Morning Gwinette is my long term thing. And

(04:50):
I know that I know that to be true because
this is the thing that I'm most passionate about, and
so I treat it as such. I used to treat
it as a business. I used to treat it as
a side hustle because I had so many things going on.
Now I treat it as a business, and pretty soon
it would be a flourishing, multi million dollar business. I
know that in my heart. You have to know these things,

(05:11):
you have to feel these things. I know that this
would be a full time, multimillion dollar business. So that's
that's the goal. That's the long game. Right. So I
want to say to you, if you're thinking about starting
a podcast, it is a great space to go in
because it's still a lot of room for you. Right.
Podcasting is tough. You would think that we would have like, like, okay,

(05:31):
so you go to YouTube. YouTube has billions of channels,
billions would it be there are a billion people on
it doing something on YouTube? Podcast is not like that.
Podcasts is. There are only about five million podcasts out there.
I think the last time I it was like like
five point four million. Here's the thing though. Out of
that five point four million, probably three hundred and seventy
five thousand of those are really active, which means they

(05:53):
create an episode every day, I mean once a week,
not even every day, once at least once a week. Right,
So you got about four point five million of them
or five million that aren't doing anything, So you don't
have a lot of competition in the space. Now, I
will say this. You can just pop your mic open
and get started, kind of like what people do with YouTube.

(06:14):
YouTube is so popular because you could pull out your
phone and just start doing a live video or pop
up shoot some quick video and just upload it. YouTube
podcasts take a little bit more. Now there are people.
There are podcast apps out there, like I used Freaker,
and if you just want to do podcasts on the goal,
you can do that because Spreaker has a Spreaker studio
that you can put on your phone and just get

(06:35):
up and go and make it happen. A lot of
people don't do that. With podcasts, they do more, and
even even with YouTube, they do a lot of scripting
and preparing and all these kind of things. But I
also think that people don't take it as serious because
it's not visual. It's audio. And that's the hard part
about this, Like it is not visual. People have to
listen to your voice and understand what you're saying so

(06:56):
you can help them. So I feel like that's why
PI because it's been around almost as long as YouTube, right,
I think podcasting started around two thousand and eight maybe,
and I think I started doing it in two thousand
and nine. YouTube started in two thousand and five. I
jumped on in two thousand and six. I wish I
had stayed, but I didn't. And I always think about

(07:17):
that because if I had stayed, oh my god, what
would I be right now? In a YouTube sphere? Anyway,
Podcasting there's still a lot of room for growth, right,
but you have to figure out what your niche is
gonna be about, and you have to be able to
set yourself apart. I have a media company. Noise Podcast
Network is my company, and well, Noise Media Network is

(07:39):
my company. The Noise Podcast Network is under that. When
I get some extra time, I'm going to do exactly
what I'm gonna tell you do right now. I'm gonna
do that and build out my network of podcasts. Okay,
so let's get started. Let's talk about some stats. So
right now, as of last year, to about five point
four million podcasts out there, you don't have a lot
of competition. Still, it's eight billion p people on the planet.

(08:01):
You still have a lot of room for growth, right.
You got to treat it as a business though it is.
The industry right now brings in about twenty three point
fifty six billion dollars with a B that's a lot
of money in that industry. And that was that was
a stat that came from twenty to twenty three that
is expected to grow to thirty one by thirty one

(08:21):
point five percent. Do you know that's that is a
lot of growth. You need to be a part of that.
You need to set yourself up to be a part
of that by twenty thirty two. That's only seven years.
So you talking about a thirty one point five percent
growth rate by twenty thirty two, that is seven years,
all right. Sixty percent of the people who listen to podcasts,
but for podcast over TV and radio. When I'm in

(08:43):
my car, I rarely listen to the radio. I'm talking
about rarely. If I'm listening to the radio, that means
my brain needs a break from business and I can
listen to some music, but for the and I love music,
but for the most part, if I'm in my car,
it's like drive time university because I'm looking for certain
things like this. All this week here when I've been
in the car, I've been looking for branding podcasts. Why

(09:05):
Because I'm trying to figure out, Okay, how would I
want to how do I want to position this brand?
And I'm creating. Son't listen to branding videos right audios
right now? Why do I do that? Because that is
a time when I'm out of my environment. I'm in
my car and I can listen to music. I could,
but I don't. I listen to podcasts because it helps
me learn more about what I'm trying to learn. My

(09:25):
dad is normally so busy. If I have to be
in my car for thirty minutes, that's thirty minutes of
contents I can consume and now I can go back
and write it down and say, okay, let me try
these things. So a lot of people listen to podcasts
in their car that listen to it over TV. They
don't want to watch it. And here's the thing about that.
Let me say this YouTube has a podcast feature that
you can upload your podcast. That's how good morning when

(09:46):
that has been distributed on YouTube and YouTube music. YouTube
has surpassed Spotify and podcasts. It was all video at
one point, but what happened was there were a lot
of platforms that would allow you to as a podcaster,
to syndicate your podcast or YouTube. So YouTube is like, well, hey,
if if that's what we're doing, we might as well,

(10:07):
just you know, put our own podcast platform things inside
of YouTube, which is what they've done, and that's why
my podcast is still syndicated there. But they just they
just have They have just surpassed Spotify in the podcasting
space and pod and Spotify was doing it already on
a different level. So that's a great place for people
to go and listen to podcasts. If they like YouTube,

(10:29):
they probably got their favorite podcast they listen to on YouTube.
Beautiful thing. What does that mean for you? I? You
and not opportunity, opportunity to grow, opportunity to make some
things happen. All right, all right, now let's talk about
this because this is what I this is what I'm
excited about AI generated content. Right when you go to YouTube.

(10:49):
You don't hear this a lot in podcasts because not
a lot of people do it. I've done it for myself,
I've done it for clients, and I plan to expand
this network this very same way because I want podcast network.
And why do I want to Why do you want
to podcast network? Audrey? Well, because if I create wonderful
podcasts and they start to get a lot of traction,
then guess what some media company or some brand may say, Hey, Audrey,

(11:14):
we love what you're doing, we love the angle of
your podcast. We want to advertise across your podcast network.
If I got sixteen podcasts that I do and now
I can build up traffic to all of them because
I'm promoting the podcast network, I could probably get a
sponsor to come on and sponsor that content. Now, how
am I gonna do that? Well? I met a guy

(11:35):
a couple of years ago at podcasts he had he
had an insurance agency. He literally told us he had
twenty seven podcasts that he produced himself by himself, and
I was like, what, There was no AI doing that
at the time. It was not it was not happening
at the time, and I think it may have just
come out, but he was doing twenty seven podcasts, like

(11:57):
different podcasts in the insurance space. First of all, I
was like, what what in the hesy, THEAJZ, what is it?
What an ahesion p JESI? Can you talk about in
the insurance space on twenty seven different podcasts. Well, I'm
sure you found something, and I'm sure it was based
on a lot of FAQs that clients had asked him
over the years, which is pretty cool. So I decided

(12:17):
I want to start a podcast network that year because
two people talked about it, I said, I want to
do a podcast network. So Noise Podcast Network was born.
I have my podcast client podcast over there, which is
a good thing. But here's the thing I want to start.
I want to expand that network till about sixteen to
eighteen podcasts. I'm going to leverage AI to do that.

(12:40):
Now here's here's what I want to tell you. There
are a couple of ways you can do this. And
the thing about this AI generated content is is projected
to represent fifteen percent of all media consumption by twenty
twenty seven with AI system listen AI system podcasts leading
to charge Why because you can now tell stories the
wait in audio. You can let me tell you something,

(13:03):
you can say you know what, I'm gonna start my
own children's podcast network. I'm gonna create all these podcasts
and I'm gonna put it on a website and people
are gonna have access to this website and they gonna
be able to get all these children podcasts for nineteen
ninety nine a month, and people can put the up.
Because my granddaughter's six years old, she has an iPhone,

(13:24):
she has the kids YouTube channel on there, she can FaceTime.
She's six, She's had the phone since she was four.
She has an iPhone. She knows how to do so
much on the phone. So I'm saying all that to say,
if you create some kind of podcast just for children,
and you put it on an app and then you
put it on the phone, children can just sit back
and listen to your podcast stories. Did you hear what

(13:46):
I just said? And you think it's hard, right, it's not.
It is the most simplest thing you could ever do
these days. Now let's get into how all right, So
let's talk about eleven last four minute. Because I the
intro that you heard in the outro that you here
on the show every day. I did it with eleven Labs.
I did it with the eleven Labs. I do a lot

(14:08):
of content with eleven Labs. Eleven Labs they had they
had a feature that will let you clone They have
a feature that will let you clone your voice. Right,
and I have to talk to them because because some reason,
my voice on my audio don't sound like my voice
when I'm talking, so it's not picking up my voice anyway.
They have a feature that allows you to clone your voice. Now,

(14:29):
I know a lot of people are definitely afraid, Oh
my god, I can't clone my voice. Well, here's what's
gonna happen. You're gonna get left behind. I'm just not
even gonna flo cutting straight to the point, you, my friend,
will be left behind because the technology is not going anywhere,
and the people that leverage technology will be on top.
If you're not leveraging technology, you will be left behind.
If you're not leveraging these AI tools, you will be

(14:52):
left behind. When you make it, you probably can't make it,
but you're gonna be so far behind the ones that
adapt adopt these these these tools into their lives and
their business, you're gonna be left behind. Now, I had
a client who has a tax business, and she said,
I know I need a podcast. I just don't under
I just don't have the time to do it, nor
do I want to, because that's not my thing. So

(15:13):
what I did was I created a thirteen part series
for her using eleven Labs. And all I did was
go to her website and I took I took some
I took thirteen more really important things from my website
and I took it into into I don't even think
it was a chat GBT at the time. I can't
remember what I used because I don't even think it
was chat GBT because I don't even think chat GBT

(15:36):
was out yet. Anyway, something I used something they canna
use this. Let me see, did I use the script
I use? Anyway? I use a platform to take her,
take her audio, take her, take the content from her website,
turn it into a script, and then I dropped it. Yeah,
it had to be out because I used eleven labs
to do it. So chat GBT was out already, chat

(15:59):
to BT was out, so I took that. So this
happened like in twenty twenty two. What is it? Okay,
that's been It's been almost three years ago. How the
time fly? I'm thinking now that couldn't been anyway. I
would go to her website. I looked at her website.
I looked at like things that are rhythm, were really important,
things that people ask questions about or didn't know about,
and things that I felt like would be helpful. And
I created. I created. I took thirteen topics, and then

(16:21):
I took each one of those topics I took. When
it in chat to me, T said create me a
script about this, and I said, make sure the script
is like she wanted five to five minute episodes, so
that it needs to be. I forgot how many words.
I think it was like four hundred and twenty words
or something that gives you, like a five minute video
four hundred and twenty words. And I went over to
Once it gave me the script, I went into eleven Labs.

(16:43):
I picked the voice. Her voice her AI Average talked
for her podcast and her name was Carla Nash. So
carl and Nash would come on every Wednesday and she
would give a tip about the tax business. And so
that's how I created. So she had an entire She
has an entire podcast of thirteen episodes with Carlin Nash
talking and the information is out there and then you

(17:03):
have to optimize the podcast and all that good stuff.
Well that's what happened. So then I had another client.
She has a security agency firm, and the same thing.
I went to her website. I scraped it for like
the best things right and protection and safety and all that.
I went over to chat GPT, did the exact same thing,
created the scripts. I forgot what her person was name,

(17:24):
but anyway, I took that and I put it in
eleven laps and I created her show, and then I
uploaded to the podcast platforms and then put an embedded
player on their website. So on their website they have
like a podcast player with podcast episodes, thirteen episodes that
are pretty evergreen. That's not going to change and now
people can go there and listen to the podcast. That's amazing. Now,

(17:46):
how do how can you do this for yourself? Eleven
lass and chat GBT is your friend. I'm going to create.
I'm looking at niches right for my podcast that a
bit not being talked about in the podcast space. I'm
looking at the niches that that I can be passionate
about and but they're not being talked about. I'm gonna

(18:06):
go into those niches. I'm gonna find fifty two topics
that'll be good. I'm gonna go to I'm telling you
the exact glueprint that i'm gonna do. I'm gonna go
into the niches. I'm gonna pick out fifty two topics.
I'm gonna take those topics, I'm gonna drop them into
chat to b TEF each one one by one. I'm
gonna say, create me a transcript for a business podcast

(18:29):
episode based on this. Make it eight hundred and fifty words,
because that's about a that's about a ten minute podcast, right,
and it's gonna do that. Then I'm gonna go back
over to eleven Labs. I'm gonna take that script. I'm
gonna pick the voice that I want. I may clone
my voice, I may not, may have a bunch of
different voices. I'm gonna drop it into eleven Labs. I'm
gonna pick the voice. The voice is gonna create the

(18:51):
output for me. I'm gonna take the output. I'm gonna
drop it into Audacity. I'm gonna take the intro in
the outro that I did in eleven Labs and the
music that I didn't soon, oh right, and I'm gonna
create that, create that the intro and outro. I'm gonna
drop that raw footage from the podcast episodes created with
eleven Labs. I'm gonna put it all together in Audacity.

(19:12):
I'm gonna turn into a podcast episode, and then i'm
gonna take it and i'm gonna upload it to Spreaker,
and then Spreaker is gonna syndicate it across all the
podcast platforms. That's it. Now, I'm not gonna be talking.
But what I will do is spend a day, probably
like a Sunday, and create thirteen episodes a day. Why
because the tools are that fast. So I probably spend

(19:34):
one Sunday thirteen take me about four hours. Probably, I've
probably spend another Sunday thirteen and I might skip a Sunday,
and every other Sunday I might create thirteen. Right. That
means in two months, I have fifty two episodes, which
means I don't have to put out any content after
I do this for the rest of the year in
that particular niche. Okay, let me say that again, because
I know somebody missed it. I want you to pick

(19:57):
a topic, something that you're passionate about, something that you love,
something that you just want to learn about. Something you
may not have an interest at all, but it just
may be something that you feel like, you know what,
I think this is a good niche, right, but it
needs to be something that you can carry for like
three to five years. It does need to be so
bland that you can't carry it. Also, I will say,

(20:17):
if you're gonna do this, make sure that it's attached
to something like, whatever I'm gonna create, it's gonna be
attached to what I'm doing in business. Whether I'm talking about,
you know, doing stuff Annoys Media Network, whether I'm talking
about doing something AI, it's gonna be attached to something
that's gonna drive traffic back to somewhere that's gonna create
revenue for what I'm trying to do. So if I'm
gonna create all these podcasts, nine times out of ten,

(20:39):
it's gonna drive traffic back to Annoys Media Network for
people to do something like go over there and buy
advertisement on these podcasts. You understand what I'm saying. So
it needs to it needs to be something that's gonna
do something else for you. It's gonna educate whatever, it's
gonna inform whoever, and it's gonna drive traffic back to
somewhere for you to build on. Now you can as

(21:00):
you build this and market this, because you may just say, look,
I got a T shirt line and I want to
talk about the process of starting this T shirt line.
I can guarantee you that you got about three three
to five y's worth the content you can create without
hands down, because in that business, I'm sure it's a
whole lot of ups and down which happening you do
the T shirt and the DOBB believe, do you do

(21:20):
a vinyl or do you do a director print with
the screen with the thing? Do you do hand hand
screen paint, screen printing on T shirts? All of these
that just that was just about four things right there,
and that that didn't even scratch the surface of that industry.
I'm sure. I'm sure then scratch the surface right, so

(21:40):
you know, pick your niche right and then make sure
that it's gonna do. Now, if you just say all
I want to do is build this podcast, that's it.
I will suggest you you Spreaker. And the reason I
suggest you you Spreaker is because Spreaker, that's s p
R E a k R. Spreaker has a built in
subscription for your podcast and you can make every episode

(22:02):
private and people can subscribe to listen to the episodes.
If that's what you say, I just want to do
this as a you know what, I need this to
do a whole course on that. I just want to
do this as a business. That's it. I don't do
anything else. I don't want to point it anywhere. I
just want to make money from the podcast. Then I
will say to you, because Spreaker has a ad network,
has ad networks that they work with. I get money
from Speaker. It's not a whole lot because my numbers

(22:25):
are not that great. For well, let me say this,
I don't understand how Speaker works. I just know that
I get money from them, right However, the goal this
year is to get a lot of money through that platform.
So the goal this year is to put out a
lot of great information. Spreaker has a built in tool
that allow you to monetize your podcasts, which I think

(22:47):
that is absolute, absolutely phenomenal. So people could be a
subscriber to your podcast. So if your podcast episodes are
behind your paywall, you just make them all private. It's
a button just making private, so all of them gonna
probably the only way to get them is for people
to subscribe to your show. That's and you can just say,
ask all I want to do right there, and I

(23:07):
want to just build that out something here, thinking of
y'all like I might have to do the same thing.
I'm loving that, and I do. I use the I
used the building tool inside of the website. So whenever
I finish a website, I'll go in there and put
like inside of the inside of the description, I will
put like support the show, and I put the link

(23:27):
to the to the subscription page. I do that all
the time. But now that I'm thinking about it, I
might just Okay, I gotta think about it. I gotta
think that through I might be on this journey with y'all. Remember,
I'm trying to build a PODCA I'm building, not trying,
I'm building a podcast network, and I think I want
to monetize every one of them with ads. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

(23:47):
So pick an pick something that either you're gonna build
a strong business around, or pick something that's gonna push
people back to a page somewhere or a product or service.
Now let's talk about some Let's talk about some some
tools you can use. I use eleven Labs a lot,
you know. I use Chatchipeutique every day. I use lion
Nardo pretty much every day to create artwork. So eleven

(24:09):
Labs is for my audio, chat GPT is for all
my written content, lir Nardo is for my graphics and images.
Also canvasts for graphics and images. I used Souno for
my music, and I use Audacity to edit my videos.
Now there are tools that you can use, like resemble, aiript.

(24:30):
Descript is a good one. Descript is the one I
started using when it first came out and people were afraid.
I remember talking to my friends. She was an attorney
and she wanted the voice to sound like her. Now
this is the crazy part she wanted She wanted me
to She's a lawyer and she wanted a podcast. And
she was like, I need a podcast. I don't feel
like doing it. Can you do it? Can you clone
my voice? At that time, the only company that was

(24:52):
cloning voices was the Script, and the Script would not
let you create anything under somebody else's voices. Fast forward
to the day. The answer is yes, absolutely, Like yeah,
just I can. I can clone your voice and do
whatever you want. So Descript is another. But descript is
great because what I like about it is if you
if you record a video or audio and you put

(25:12):
it into the script and you say something that you
don't want to you don't want in there, you can
go into the script right e race the words like
the physical words on the screen, put in new words
in the in the voice on the video or the
voice on the audio. It's gonna say exactly what you
it's it's a great editing to them. It's gonna say
exactly what you wanted to say inside of that audio

(25:34):
and video because you literally changed You didn't have to
re record the audio, you didn't have to re record
the video. You just go in there and take the
words I put in new words, and the and the
voice in the audio and the video is gonna say
exactly what you just typed in. That's why the script
is so powerful. You can you can edit in there.
You can create podcast episodes inside of the script, which

(25:54):
I think is great. Transcriptions and summarrations, some summari is.
I don't know. I don't know if you necessarily need
these tubes anymore, but you could use them because a
lot of the platforms would transcribe stuff for you, like
if you create audio, depending on your platform, like I
used Spreaker, I can just hit transcribe and they're just
gonna transcribe it. YouTube is the same way, Like when

(26:18):
you put a video up on YouTube, it gives you
the transcript like the next day, so you have a
full blown transcript of whatever you're doing. But you can
use otter Ai I've used that before. I've never used
Whisper by open Ai, and I didn't even know they
had that. But now I need to go and look
at it because I pay for open Ai, But so
I need to look for whisper. But Whisper by open
ai and then SEO. You know, I use chat GBT.

(26:40):
I've never used copy ai, and I've looked at podbeing
a lot, but I didn't you know it's for SEO
for your podcast. Yes, you should be doing SEO for
your podcast. That's a whole nother show. I can't even
get into that right now. You can use scripts. I
use AI for the scripts. You can use all of
these different storytelling techniques. When I do my articles, I

(27:01):
do my articles, I'll be like, this is a topic.
I want you to write in second person, active voice,
you know, eighth grade readability, because I want my I
want people to be able to come to the website
and be able to relate to what I'm saying without
it being over their heads. Right, I could talk over
people's heads. I don't want to do that. I want
anybody to come to the website. I'll say, Okay, I
understand what she's saying. I understand what this article about.

(27:21):
You know, because I've said write the article this way,
you want to write your scripts the same way. All right,
all right, now, let's talk about some pros and cons
and some start. Well, yeah, let's talk about the cost
breakdown first. So I pay twenty two dollars a month
for eleven Labs. I pay fifty dollars a month for
a Spreaker. And the reason I pay fifty dollars is
because I have a network of podcasts. If you were

(27:44):
gonna do Spreaker by yourself, you can do. And I
have a lot of content. Remember I put out a
show four days a week, so I needed like one
of the largest larger plans on Spreaker because I put
out so much content. I'm sure you're not gonna do that.
Even if you were, the nineteen ninety nine plan will
probably be good for you because I have other plan.

(28:05):
I have other podcasts that I produce on my platform,
so it's not just mine. So twenty two dollars a
month for eleven labs, you're gonna use that for or resemble.
You're gonna use that. It's like twenty two to ninety
nine dollars Because you know, some Sometimes when you get
run out of minutes or credits or whatever you wanna
call them, you may need more. So it can start
anywhere from twenty two to ninety nine dollars for your

(28:26):
voice cloning technology which is eleven Labs and resemble AI
pretty good podcasting. I use Spreaker. Georgette uses bus Sprout.
I think bus sprout is like twelve dollars. I pay
fifty dollars because I have a large plan. I need
a large plan. She plays about twelve dollars, I think
for her podcast because she only puts out like a
podcast a week or something. So that makes sense for her,

(28:48):
and that can make sense for you too, if you're
gonna put out episode once a week, if you're gonna
do editing. The script costs about thirty dollars a month,
and which is which is worth every penny in my opinion,
because you can just go in there, if you say
a lot, you can go and take out all the
arms just to lead them, and it's gonna make a
nice smooth trend. That's as an amazing tool. It's an amazing tool.

(29:09):
Script generator. You can use chat gbt for free for real.
I use it. I use the pay version because I
use it so much and I want all of the
features that it has, so I use it. I pay
twenty dollars a month for that. Right, So now we're
at twenty two. We had thirty thirty four, we had
forty six, we had sixty six SEO promotions. By thirty

(29:30):
dollars a month, we had ninety six. If you use
to Otter or Whisper to I'm believing that whisper is
probably included with the twenty dollars month I paid for
chat GBT, I gotta go back and look for it.
But if not, if you want to use Otter or
Whisper to transcribe everything, that's another let's say thirty dollars
on the high end, we're right around one hundred and

(29:51):
something dollars, right, And then if you want to use
like audiograms or music software. I pay ten dollars a
month for Suno, which I love. I pay twelve dollars
a month for Leonardo for the images, which I love.
And if you wanted to use other software like you
might want to use like Headliners to create to short
to edit your episodes and create like little short pieces

(30:11):
in there, you can do that as well. And I
think headline is like ten dollars a month as well.
You're not even at three hundred dollars. And now your
podcast business is up and growing. Now the rest of
that money you put into marketing. Now, let's talk about
some pros and cons because you need to know these.
That's the startup call. So the startup costs is anywhere
from two fifty to five to fifty that's the startup calls,
depending on which platforms you use. And you don't need

(30:33):
You really don't need the most advanced platforms to do this.
You can go with the bare minimums and kick it off.
Your microphone is probably gonna be the most expensive thing
that you spend money on right this minute. If you
got a computer already, you're already set to go. Your
microphone is can get you a YETI for like, you know,
like ninety nine dollars. I think ma YETI was like
one hundred and nine, one hundred and nineteen. But that's

(30:54):
like and I love them. I have two of those,
so you can get that done like anytime. All right,
all right, let's talk about some pros and cons. Pros
and cons, pros and cons. All Right, the pros. It's
very cost sufficient. You can use AI to do a
lot of the work for you. Like I'm gonna use
eleven labs to create like sixteen eighteen different podcasts. I'm

(31:16):
gonna put them all on my network and somebody's gonna come,
some brand, it's gonna come. They're gonna buy ads across
all of the all of the podcasts.

Speaker 1 (31:23):
Right.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
That's that's really easy to do, is you can put
out fast content, Like you can sit down and say
I'm gona do episode right now and put out fast content.
Really like you can just put out content with you
just talking and speaking your truth and turn into a podcast.
It's your truth, tell your story. It's fast. You can
do it fast. You can scale it. It's really scalable
because you know, the platforms have a lot of space

(31:45):
where they can house your business, and as they grow,
you can scale. I started out with free on Sprinking,
then I went to nineteen ninety nine, and then I'm
up at fifty and probably when I launched this network,
I'm probably gonna need to be on the highest tier
they have, which is about one hundred and twenty five
dollars a month. But that's okay because the goal is
to grow this into a multimillion dollar business, So spend
one hundred and twenty five dollars. It's not even an issue.

(32:08):
It's accessibility to non native speakers. Let me tell you something.
When I look at my stats for Good Morning Greenett,
I'm really talking about you know, business, right, But people
are listening to this show all over the world, and
I can see who's listening, where they're listening from, and
a lot of countries. Like one day, this was crazy
and I was like, what did I say on that day?
One day, Russia was number two in my Like one week,

(32:32):
Russia was like the number to the second country, number
two in that spot of countries that was listening to
my show that day, And I was like, what in
the easy Fish easy Yeah. Now I don't know what,
I don't know what I was saying, but yeah, they
were number two in that spot for the week. And
I was like, okay. And it's easy to be discovered
when you use seo, so you gotta have SEO there.

(32:52):
It's hard to get to be discovered on Apple. I'm
just gonna keep it real, right, It's hard to be
discovered on Spotify, But that's where you have to put
in the elbow grease and make sure it's syndicated on
other platforms like Good Morning Ginette is syndicated to Twitter
and YouTube and Facebook, and I should be doing a
better job on Instagram, but I'm not, and I need
to get better with that. So I need to really

(33:14):
hire somebody just to do just that. I need you
to make sure this episode is on Instagram every day.
I need to do that, but I have not done that.
But the other three I'm good with. So you know,
it's easy to be discovered when you put in on
all these different platforms. I don't leverage my LinkedIn enough either,
So between Instagram and TikTok and LinkedIn, I'm not I'm
missing I'm missing the mark on that. I'm missing the

(33:36):
mark on that, and I need to get better with that.
But right now YouTube, Facebook and Twitter is being syndicated there.
And let's talk about some Let's talk about some some
cons of having AI generated voices people sometimes sometimes people
don't like the fact that it sounds robotic. That's why
I like a Loving Labs because you can make it
sound as human as you can. And some people don't

(33:59):
want some people don't like the fact that it's not human.
But here's the thing, they're not your audience. Your audience
is the people who want the information that you are sharing.
They don't care if it sounds like a robot. They're
trying to solve a problem. So if your podcast is
solving a problem, that's what they want. Some people want
you to want to sound just like you, and that's okay.
But the ones that don't and they have a problem
with it, that's not your audience. So don't spend a

(34:20):
lot of time lamenting over that that they're not your audience. Right.
Some they you can't get a whole lot of emotion
out of a robot. Let me say that there are
tools inside of eleven Lives that will give you a
little bit more umph when you know how to go
in there and work them. But you're not gonna get
a lot of emotion with AI generated content. This is
not You're gonna get some, but not a lot. Some

(34:43):
people think it's an ethical concern around that. I you
know me personally, it's not going anywhere, and although there
may be some issues on the epthical side and ethical concerns,
it's not going anywhere. And the concerns will stay. Just
like we have concerns for privacy, We've been having them
ever since the internet. Can about my privacy, my privacy,
my privacy, we won't have any And they're ethical concerns

(35:05):
every day about how people use our information to share
with other folks, you know what I'm saying. So I understand,
I understand why people are upset about AI generated content
and media and the ethical concerns they have around it.
But put out good content, you know. Don't put out
content that's that's you hating and all kinds of crazy stuff.

(35:28):
Put out good content. And now if you want to
do some erotic, you know, podcasts after midnight, that's your thing.
Nobody's gonna stop you from doing that. I'm not saying
that that's not ethical. Put it on at midnight. People
gonna listen to it. There's a there's a a podcast
out there called Horrible, like w H O R A
B l E Horrible. And I saw the young lady

(35:48):
who's one of the show hosts her podcasts get She
makes three three four million dollars a year from that
podcast and it's about it's about sexual escapades, and she
travels around the world on tour about her podcast. I
want to create a podcast that I can go on tour.
What I would love that? When I tell y'all would

(36:09):
love that, I would love that. I want to create
a podcast where I can go on tour, and I
just may do that possible. Listening resistance to AI driven
box hosts it may but hereuse again, they're not your
audience and Harry lines on AI toos leading to software dependencies, Well, yeah,
that could be addictive. Because I use AI tools every day,

(36:31):
I don't think it makes me lazy. I actually work
way longer now because I can create so much more content.
It's the craziest thing. People like, oh AI makes you lazy. Nah,
not me. If you're lazy, usuly is gonna be. It's
kind of like when they say money is the root
of all evil. No, people, people, it's not money. Money
is a tool. It's the way people use money that

(36:53):
causes evil. Same thing with AI tools. AI tools are
not evil, it's the people that use them and how
they use them. Because I use mine to do content,
I use mine to create I love it. It makes me.
I will see I will sit on Leonardo for hours
coming up with concept with different logos like yesterday, I
need I needed a new concept for something that I'm

(37:14):
gonna release and at the gala on Friday night, and
speaking of the Ginnett Galer the Woman's Chamber of Gala.
If you have not well, you're gonna miss it. This year.
Ticket sells are clothes. But next year, There's always next year,
and I will have everything updated next year. I use
I Use Leonardo. I was laying in the bed and

(37:35):
I was like, Okay, I think I need a new
I need a new piece of imagery for this thing
that I'm gonna launch on Friday. And it just came
up with so many amazing I could lay that for
hours and then I take that and it triggered something
in my brain so I can get the rest of it.
I'm trying to get out to go and start the
new thing that I'm trying to start. What I'm saying
to you is that it's not Yeah, you're gonna have

(37:57):
heavy reliance on them because they're great tools.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
Here.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
It's gonna make you better, it's gonna make you more productive.
The tools are gonna make you more productive, more creative.
You're gonna be able to make more money. And yes,
you may be come relying on it, but listen, if
it's doing what you needed to do, so what So
those are the pros and those are the cons. All right,
all right, I think I've said a lot. There's an
entire article on good Morning Genett dot com that you

(38:22):
can see about using these tools and how to get
it started. In the entire article, go check it out.
Learn how to use the tools because they're there for
you to use. I hope this episode was helpful for you,
and listen, this thing is something you can start under
five hundred dollars with. What you have to remember is
that if you're starting this as a business treated as such,
you gotta treat it as a business. And it takes

(38:43):
a lot of time, y'all. There are days when I'm
just exhausted after just doing the show, but I have
to keep going because now I got to go back
and put all the content on my website. I gotta
go back and make sure that the images are right
and I used to. And that's what I'm saying like people,
Oh you're gonna get lady, No, you're not gonna get.
You're gonna spend way more time doing this thing than
you've done before. I spend way more time now with

(39:06):
all of these tools that are supposed to make me streamline,
and I am more streamlined because they allow me to
focus better. You can take these tools and create podcast episodes,
put them all over the place, syndicate them automatically. The
tools are there. It's gonna take drive though, it's gonna
take passion. It's gonna take a why, like why are

(39:27):
you doing this? What is the reason? Is it to
make money? Is it a hobby? Because if it's a hobby,
you're gonna treat it like you're gonna make a hobby
money or none at all. It is a I'm gonna
say this, it is a hard business. But if you
are consistent, you can make it happen. All right, all right,
all right, That's all I got for you. That you
could have been anywhere in the world, but to spend

(39:47):
the last forty minutes for men. I love and appreciate
you for that. Listen the whole article about how to
start your podcast using generated AI tools like to do
It to do so, it's there. Some niches are there
that you can look into going into if you don't
I have an idea, but make sure it's something that
you either want to learn about or you know about.
Just don't you know. Don't just be a random unless
you're doing like a whole book series of book audios

(40:08):
that could happen too. Listen. The opportunities are endless. When
I tell you I'm building a network, I'm building a network.
