Scribbled Shownotes



  1. I listened to a great episode of Cliff Ravencraft’s podcast the other day where he spoke about making a podcast

  2. He said a lot of people that come to him have got it the wrong way around

  3. They made a podcast, but didn’t do it for a reason

  4. There was nothing for a listener to then jump off to afterwards

  5. This is fine for for-fun podcasts, but what about the marketing ones?

  6. Why are you doing your content marketing? What are you ultimately trying to market?



 

My personal reasons for doing a podcast


  1. You all know: I started my podcast in January as a challenge and “marketing experiment”

  2. I didn’t have anything to sell though

  3. I enjoy it and that’s one of the most important things

  4. A new goal of mine is to freely share everything I learn

  5. It helps me build an audience - 1000 Fans by Kevin Kelly



 

Let’s flip the question around


  1. But let me turn the question to you: why are YOU doing these things?

  2. Or why are you NOT doing?

  3. A reason is important

  4. For years, I didn’t have a reason, so I didn’t do it

  5. Now I want to share, I have a reason
