If you think getting sponsors is the golden ticket to podcast monetization, it’s time for a reset.
This episode is going to challenge everything you thought you knew about making money with your podcast. Because the truth is:
🎯 Monetization isn’t step one. 🎯 You don’t need 10k downloads or to sell your soul to ads. 🎯 Just because you built it, doesn't mean they'll come.
Inside this episode, I’m breaking down:
Why waiting on sponsorships might actually be slowing your growth
The real reason ads make your podcast sound...off
The easiest, most aligned way to monetize if you're a service provider (and why no one’s telling you this)
What to create and sell instead of waiting around for brands to email you
And the exact mindset shift that turned my podcast into a client-generating funnel
We’re halfway through the Podcast Growth Series, and this is the turning point. If you’re here to grow a show that supports your business (instead of draining your time and energy), this one’s a must-listen.
