Ever wondered when’s the best time to start seeking podcast sponsors or how to differentiate between ads and sponsorships? In today's episode, we unravel the essentials of monetizing your podcast with our community member Leslie, who just launched her show and has burning questions.
We break down the basics of sponsorships and get straight into self-sponsored content. Discover how promoting your products or services can be a robust form of self-sponsorship, setting you on the path to effective monetization right from the start.
But that’s not all—we dive into various sponsorship models, sharing firsthand experiences with baked-in ads, dynamic content, and the strategic placement of pre-, mid-, and post-roll ads.
I'm sharing our successes and challenges with top-recommended platforms like Buzzsprout and Riverside and highlighting resources such as Justin Moore's Brand Deal Wizard for securing those coveted brand deals.
Even if your audience is small, we share insights on aligning sponsors with your brand to maximize every opportunity. Plus, engage with us and our community through questions, our newly rebranded newsletter, "Content Therapy," and more!
Join us for an episode with practical tips and engaging stories to elevate your podcast monetization game.
