How Creating Your Own Podcast Can Bring in More Income and Strengthen Your Community With Adam McNeil
If you’ve ever considered starting a podcast, now is the time. It can help you build a stronger community and bring in thousands more dollars per year. This week’s guest, Adam McNeil, was just a normal guy who had a unique game that he really liked playing. He also loved coffee. He could talk about it for hours.
So he did. He started his show and did about 50k downloads in his first year of podcasting. During that time he was able to bring in over $25,000 in revenue from his show.
And if you’re wondering what that approach was like..
You’re probably wondering what kind of advantage he had to make this happen in such a short period of time.. He didn’t have a huge social media following. He didn’t have a bunch of fancy equipment. All he had was a passion for a unique topic that he presented in a unique way.
Adam — who is now the VP of Marketing for ADOPTER Media (they spend over $20 million in annual podcast ad spend) — spilled all of his secrets in this week’s episode of “Soulcial Scoop”.
