Starting with a niche keeps your target audience focused and makes your content easier to find for those seeking that specific info.Build Community and Audience Engagement Beyond DownloadsHarry Duran encouraged offering value through easy-to-access downloads, inviting your audience onto your email list, and hosting virtual meetups like “Happy Hour with Gabby.” Cultivating a community around your podcast builds loyalty and direct relationships outside of social platforms.Collaborate and Partner to Sustain Long-Term ProjectsGaby Proctor emphasized the benefit of teaming up with a co-host for accountability and support. When motivation dips, having a collaborator helps you push through lulls and stay consistent.Get Feedback and Learn About Your Audience’s NeedsProactively ask listeners for feedback and guidance on topics they’re seeking, as suggested by both speakers. However, Harry Duran recommended actionable ways to tailor your episodes—like using outcome-based episode titles, related downloadable resources, and email sequences—to better understand and serve your listeners.Don’t Build Your Business Solely on Rented PlatformsAfter Gaby Proctor lost access to her social media accounts, the conversation highlighted the importance of diversifying your online presence. Focus on building your own channels, such as an email list or website, since you truly own your audience there and aren’t subject to the whims of platform algorithms or policies.<h2>Tweetable Quotes</h2><blockquote>"I love learning about how to grow spiritually, intellectually, or by taking care of your health. I really liked the concept of longevity at the event—it’s not just about living longer but improving every aspect of your life: business, health, relationships, work."</blockquote><blockquote>"I realized I was in marketing because I was helping clients promote their business with different ideas, packages, and strategies. I thought all that time I was in sales until I moved to real estate and saw the importance of marketing myself and sharing helpful information so people know why they want to work with us."</blockquote><blockquote>"I have a duty to share as much legitimate information as I can because there are a lot of scams out there. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. We’re very honest with the audience; not everything is butterflies and rainbows, and bad things can happen in real estate, too."</blockquote><h2>Resources Mentioned</h2>LinkedIn - <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabyproctor/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabyproctor/</a>Podcast Junkies Website: <a href="https://www.podcastjunkies.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">podcastjunkies.com</a>Podcast Junkies YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/Podcastjunkies/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/c/Podcastjunkies/</a>Podcast Junkies Facebook Group: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastjunkiesjunkies/</a>Podcast Junkies Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/podcastjunkies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/podcastjunkies</a>Podcast Junkies Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/podcast_junkies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/podcast_junkies</a>Podcast Junkies LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/podcastjunkies" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/company/podcastjunkies</a>The Podosphere: <a href="https://www.thepodosphere.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.thepodosphere.com/</a>Podcast Index, Value4Value & NewPodcastApps: <a href="https://podcastindex.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcastindex.org/</a>🎙️🎙️🎙️Podcast Production & Marketing by&nbsp;<a href="https://fullcast.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">FullCast</a>
