And if people are listening to what we have to say and if you’re spouting this stuff that’s garbage and not realistic, you can influence somebody to make a poor decision in their life.” (07:42)
“We want to be thought of and associated as a premier content creator.” (18:57)
“We believe very heavily that private podcasting is the future of where our company is going and, I think, a big part of the industry is expanding to.” (24:05)
“If you know the value of yourself and the show and the people that you’re approaching about sponsorship, you’ll have a much easier job of selling sponsorship.” (32:01)
“With the background at Podcast Motor, we’ve been working with content creators a lot. One of the simple things we’ve done is brought on a producer in-house. We’ve become a small professional services arm that does editing and production. And now we have a creative person that works with customers and that’s the person who’s creating the show for us.” (32:55)
“That’s one of the coolest things about this space is that so many people are willing to hop on a call just to chat and help you with things.” (42:33)
