Podcasting can be a very lucrative business for some. That includes the hosts as as well as the companies involved in content creation and distribution. Some numbers have been released letting us know that some popular hosts are able to make millions - and Spotify has once again purchased a company for content. Stay tuned for information on upcoming events, tech support cries and of course an interview with podcaster, Bill Fairchild.
Thanks for joining us this episode of Podcast Insider. Looking to be a guest on the show? Let us know.
This week on Podcast Insider...
News:
Podcasters are making the big bucks. My Favorite Murder and Joe Rogan are pulling in millions and so are others.
Gary Leland is now working with BizTalkRadio. Congrats on the new gig Gary; BizTalkRadio is based in Dallas.
Spotify has officially purchased The Ringer. The two companies had already been working on content for some time now.
Speaking of Spotify, listenership is up. Nearly 200% the past year.
Best Practice:
Walk before you run. We relate to this when it comes to podcast shows and networks. We suggest that podcasters start with one show, learn the ropes and then expand. It's the same amount of work for the second show - are you sure you have the time for that?
