From engaging with your audience to how to manage trends, this is the advice you need to listen to if you want to build longevity and trust in your podcast and remain authentic. KEY TAKEAWAYS Unaligned sponsorships. Once you have built up a reputation as an expert in your space, you need to be careful who you work with or you could damage your reputation.Prioritising trends over authenticity is an easy but poor decision to make as a podcaster. Your content needs to be purposeful and aligned with your niche.Don’t endorse things you don’t truly believe in or may change your mind on.As you build a show, you need to consistently engage with your audience and take on their feedback.Lack of vulnerability can be damaging, not sharing your personal stories can make your podcast feel less relatable.Rushing episodes because you aren’t organised can mean you are putting out poor content which will impact you and your show's reputation. BEST MOMENTS “The thing that is worse than selling the same thing from a lot of different brands is selling something completely irrelevant” “Don’t just try and get your opinion on controversial topics because it’s trending” “The biggest thing in podcasting is people’s relationship with the host” “If you always put your guest on a pedestal then you become a chat show host like Graham Norton” “Make sure you’ve got good production, make sure you’ve planned” VALUABLE RESOURCES Website EPISODES TO CHECK OUT NEXT Comparing Podcast Production Options | using AI?

  • 1.5 Million Followers in 18 months | Building a relatable Personal Brand with Ben Askins

    1.5 Million Followers in 18 months | Building a relatable Personal Brand with Ben Askins
    Nov 26 2024

    Ben Askins joins Ash and Kane to discuss how he created and sold a luxury digital marketing agency and his journey to becoming a viral content creator with 1.5 million followers in just 18 months. He shares insights and experiences regarding content creation, tackling topics from the challenges of handling viral growth to the effects of social media on politics. He also gives his perspectives on business, management, and the future of green technology.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Building a luxury brand requires a different approach as direct outreach doesn't work; instead, focus on inbound marketing and making brands want to approach you.
    • Content creators can get locked into their audience's expectations, forcing them to maintain certain viewpoints even if their actual opinions evolve.
    • Personal branding should be broader than your business niche. Ben's content about management helps his green tech company by opening doors through his influence.
    • The most relatable content often performs best, so stories about common workplace frustrations resonate more than extreme scenarios.
    • Growing a successful content following doesn't require fancy production. Ben's simple setup of talking to a camera against a blank wall generated 750 million views!
    • When starting a business young, many will be patronising until you hit a tipping point, then they'll claim your success was obvious or lucky.
    • Social media has completely changed the way we consume information, Ben's content sometimes gets more views than traditional news outlets, proving the shift in media influence.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "We were very good at hiring good people to kinda help us out as we knew nothing we couldn’t kid ourselves we could do it on our own”

    "There is a snobbery to luxury, and what I mean by that is you can't show you're too keen."

    "I get branded like a career expert and HR expert. I'm not that. I just a lot of all the knowledge I have is on a sort of practical level."

    "I think content creators sit between... celebrities and in the sense of like, I think content creators people feel a more of a personal connection to in a lot of ways."

    "Either at some point as a country we're either going to be selling the tech or purchasing it. That's just a fact."

    "I love that about social, the fact that people can monetise things they absolutely love. I think that's got to be good for the world and society in general."

    Ash and Kane give an overview of podcast sponsorship numbers in this episode. They talk about what you need to pay attention to as a podcaster and give some essential tips on how to leverage stats for your benefit.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • The longer the ad read, the better it performs for sponsors on podcasts. The longer you talk about the sponsor, the better the ad performs for them
    • Host-read ads perform better than host-endorsed ads. What this means, is allowing hosts to creatively work with brands on the sponsorship read, rather than just reading a script, is to the sponsor’s benefit. It will perform better.
    • A longer deal with a sponsor, of a minimum period of 8 weeks, will perform better. You can use this stat to your advantage when negotiating with sponsors.

    BEST MOMENTS

    “The longer you talk about them, the better it (ad) performs”

    “Almost all advertisers only reach 25% of all monthly podcast listeners”

    “Really big shows skew a lot of this data”
