Convincing Your Contacts To Listen To Your Podcast [Episode 192] - a podcast by Evo Terra

:: ::

Turning to your contacts and other communication channels are some of the best ways to grow your podcast’s audience. However, it’s not as easy as that. In this episode, you’ll learn these harsh facts:

  • 75% of the people you actively engage with in various communication channels don’t have the podcast habit.
  • Less than 10% of the people in your contact list will bother to check out your podcast.

But it’s not all doom-and-gloom. The trick is a two-parter:

  1. Make your contacts feel special
  2. Don’t pollute their chosen channel


If you can do those things -- and yes, I will give you specific examples of what I mean -- you can not only increase your odds of turning a contact into a listener. But you’re actively working to make podcasting better.

Abortion is a basic healthcare need for the millions of people who can become pregnant. Everyone should have the freedom to decide what’s best for themselves and their families, including when it comes to ending a pregnancy. This decision has dire consequences for individual health and safety, and could have harsh repercussions for other landmark decisions.

Restricting access to comprehensive reproductive care, including abortion, threatens the health and independence of all Americans. Even if you live in a state where abortion rights are upheld, access to safe medical procedures shouldn’t be determined by location, and it shouldn't be the privilege of a small few.

You can help by donating to local abortion funds. To find out where to donate for each state, visit donations4abortion.com.
