Description



When COVID wiped out 95% of Gary Arndt's income overnight, he launched a podcast that now generates substantial five-figure monthly revenue and 1.5 million downloads per month. Discover how Gary ignored the "niche down" advice and instead created a show about literally everything, writing a 2000-word "term paper" daily while competitors produce fluff content. Gary shares his exact subscriber value calculation ($10-14 per listener annually) and reveals why he spends $1-3 to acquire each new listener through podcast apps. Learn why social media marketing failed him, which podcast advertising platforms deliver the best ROI, and how he built a rabid fan base (including his "Completionist Club" for superfans who've heard all 1,700+ episodes). This is the blueprint for turning daily publishing into financial freedom in just 18 months.
