The Smart Way to Build an Audience for Your Films - a podcast by Rob Hardy
from 2019-11-12T23:27:19
Today on Filmmaker Freedom, how to approach building an audience for your films, and do it in a way that leads to sustainable revenue with minimal work.
That might sound like a hyperbolic promise, but I guarantee you it's not.
There are two foundational missteps that entrepreneurial filmmakers tend to make when building audiences, and these strategic errors limit how much you can earn from your films, while dramatically increasing the amount of work you have to do.
Basically, if you're not careful, you might end doing more work for less money. And that's no bueno.
So today, you're going to learn a concept that I call the dichotomies of audience building, and come out the other side with a smart, strategic approach that will serve you well in your entrepreneurial filmmaking journey for years to come. Enjoy :)
