How do I grow my podcast? How do I grow my business? 

They seem like good questions, but in reality, they’re a bit open-ended… hard to define. What does “grow” even mean? 

I’m doing something totally different in this bonus episode!

This month is all about COLLABORATION on the Content with Character podcast and in the name of collaboration, I wanted to share this powerful takeaway from a fellow podcaster and collaborator, Dave Campbell. 

Dave is here to bring insights that will help you focus on who's already engaged, already listening, and already cheering you on to GROW. 

Key Takeaways:

  • How to define what growth actually means for your business or podcast
  • Embracing the power of one listener and the ripple effect they can create
  • Shifting your mindset from building an audience to building a community
  • Engaging with current listeners to increase loyalty and retention
  • Measuring success through depth of connection, not just downloads.

About Dave and his link: 

Empty nest Dad, musician, podcaster, and collector of people - I love having conversations with creative people and building bridges with others via podcasting. In a world that seems to value our differences over what we have in common, I am hoping that we can leverage the power of our words and a life well lived and well loved.
