Unlocking Audience Insights: Crafting the Perfect Survey for Your Podcast

Creating an effective audience survey is essential for understanding what your listeners want and how to enhance their experience. This episode dives into the crucial steps for crafting survey questions that engage your audience and encourage participation. Dave Jackson emphasizes the importance of knowing your audience and keeping surveys concise, ideally under ten questions, to boost completion rates. He also discusses strategies for increasing responses, such as using incentives and clear communication about the benefits of participating. By the end, you'll have actionable insights to help you design a survey that not only gathers valuable feedback but also strengthens your relationship with your listeners. Takeaways: ---------- --- Begin your survey with a concise opening paragraph explaining how respondents will benefit. --- Keep your survey short, ideally under 10 questions for higher completion rates. --- Incentives can increase survey participation but ensure they don’t skew honest feedback. --- Use relevant questions that engage your audience and avoid demographic questions at the start. --- Incorporate a progress bar to inform participants how far along they are in the survey. --- Make sure to remind your audience about the survey to boost responses regularly.

Unlock Podcast Success: How Being Open to Feedback Changes Everything

Being open to receiving feedback is crucial for growth, especially as we head into 2025. If podcasters are unwilling to listen to their audience, they risk repeating the same mistakes and achieving the same results. This episode delves into the importance of having a receptive mindset regarding advice and input from listeners. Today, I share anecdotes and examples, including the cautionary tale of Elizabeth Holmes and the pitfalls of ignoring expert advice. He emphasizes that understanding your audience is the foundation for creating compelling content and encourages podcasters to seek feedback to enhance their shows actively. Takeaways: ---------- --- Being open to audience feedback is essential for podcasters to improve their content. --- If you ignore audience advice, you risk repeating the same mistakes year after year. --- Feedback is critical to podcasting success; embrace it to grow your show. --- Creating an audience survey can provide valuable insights into what your listeners want. --- Understanding your audience's needs can lead to more engaging and resonant content. --- Ignoring expert advice, as seen in the case of Theranos, can lead to failure. ---With a CLEAR understanding of your WHY and your audience, you can decide which advice to accept and which to dismiss.

Ariana Grande's Voice and Your Podcast: What They Have in Common

Don't let past regrets or harsh words hold you back from podcasting. This episode highlights inspiring stories from podcasters like Zita Christian, who turned her struggles with Alzheimer's into a powerful platform, and Ray Arnott, whose model train podcast has garnered a passionate community. Dave Jackson emphasizes that everyone has a unique voice and experience to share, and it's essential to push through the self-doubt that might stem from past failures. He also discusses the phenomenon of pod fading, where many new podcasters stop before truly finding their audience. Tune in to discover how you can overcome obstacles and embrace your podcasting journey, all while ensuring your voice is heard loud and clear. Transitioning to the theme of persistence in podcasting, Dave discusses the phenomenon of 'pod fading,' where many new podcasters abandon their shows within months. He references a study revealing that around 30% of podcasters stop producing content shortly after launching. Jackson draws parallels between podcasting and gym memberships, highlighting how both require commitment and a clear understanding of one's goals to achieve lasting success. He encourages listeners to embrace their unique voices, reminding them that past failures or negative feedback should not deter them from sharing their stories. Instead, he advocates for a mindset shift—viewing each podcasting endeavor as an opportunity to learn and grow, regardless of the initial outcome. The episode crescendos with reflections on the recent insights he gained from watching the musical 'Wicked,' particularly the unexpected vocal talents of Ariana Grande. This experience serves as a metaphor for the hidden potential within each person. Jackson urges aspiring podcasters to let go of self-doubt and 'head trash,' asserting that everyone has a unique contribution to make. By embracing their individuality and the lessons learned from past experiences, podcasters can inspire others and carve out their place in the audio landscape. As the episode wraps up, Dave reiterates his commitment to supporting podcasters through his school, providing resources and guidance to help them realize their potential and achieve their podcasting dreams. Takeaways: ---------- ---Zita Christian's podcast gained recognition when she was featured in U.S. News & World Report, showcasing the impact a podcast can have. ---Ray Arnott's podcast inspired a listener to send in a special gift. ---Many new podcasters quit because they lack clarity on their audience and goals, leading to frustration. ---Consistency in content and focus is crucial for successful podcasting; it's not just about publishing. ---Ariana Grande's unexpected vocal talent illustrates that preconceived notions can limit potential; podcasting is similar. ---Pod fading affects 30% of new podcasters; understanding your audience is key to longevity. ---YouTube's redefining [ the word podcast may confuse advertisers] (https://www.inandaroundpodcasting.com/episode/021) and affect the money flowing into podcasting.

Strike Up Your Podcast: Lessons from Duck Pin Bowling

OK, I realize this seems a little odd, but stay with me. Bowling and podcasting share surprising similarities that can inspire you to start your own podcast. Just like in duck pin bowling, where mastering the basics and adapting your technique is crucial, podcasting requires a solid grasp of content creation and delivery. Throughout this episode, Dave Jackson draws parallels between the two, emphasizing the importance of feedback, practice, and finding your unique style. He also introduces an AI prompt that can help you generate fresh interview questions, making it easier to engage your audience. Whether you're a seasoned bowler or a curious podcaster, this episode is packed with insights to guide your journey. Got Feedback On This Episode?

The Future of Film and Podcasting: Avoiding the Same Pitfalls

This episode serves as a guide for content creators to learn from the mistakes of the movie industry. It advocates for creativity, genuine audience engagement, and strategic marketing that resonates with today's consumers. The movie industry is falling fast. I share my childhood memories of the joy of watching movies and how attending a movie now has changed dramatically. We need to understand the power of audience engagement, noting that the film industry is often playing it safe with sequels and familiar franchises (a strategy that may not always yield positive results). As podcasters, we need to note these trends and craft our content thoughtfully, ensuring that we do not fall into the trap of repeating what has already been done. Podcasters can stand out in an increasingly crowded marketplace by fostering authentic connections with listeners and providing innovative, compelling narratives. Got Feedback On This Episode? I'd love to hear what you thought about this episode. If you have a minute or two, it's less than five questions and works great on your phone or computer. [Share Your Thoughts] (https://podclick.me/thoughts) Takeaways: ---------- --- The movie industry is struggling, and podcasters can learn valuable lessons from this decline. --- Creating a strong community experience can enhance audience engagement for both movies and podcasts. --- Making the consumption of your content easy is crucial for keeping your audience satisfied. --- Trailers should accurately represent the film's content to avoid disappointing viewers. --- Audience engagement and feedback are essential for improving movie and podcast content. --- Podcasters should avoid the common pitfalls of the movie industry to ensure success.

Maximize Listener Engagement with Podcast Chapters

Chapters in podcast episodes allow listeners to easily navigate content, enhancing their listening experience by allowing them to skip to segments they find most intriguing or relevant. Dave Jackson explores the evolution and utility of chapters, reflecting on his initial disdain and eventual reliance on them. Dave invites podcasters to share their perspectives, highlighting a range of opinions from enthusiastic advocates to skeptics who worry chapters might disrupt the listener's engagement. Tools like Hindenburg and [Descript] (https://supportthisshow.com/descript) are spotlighted for their ability to integrate chapters seamlessly, while AI-driven solutions from hosts like [Buzzsprout] (https://supportthisshow.com/buzzsprout) and [Captivate] (https://supportthisshow.com/captivate) are emerging to automate the process. As the podcasting landscape evolves, chapters are becoming a valuable feature for both content creators and audiences, though their adoption remains a personal choice, influenced by the podcast's format and the creator's goals.

Understanding Platform Fees: Best Options for Podcast Donations and Premium Content

Value for Value or (podcasting 2.0) is NOT just about streaming Satoshi's (a very small amount of bitcoin). Today, we will discuss asking for support and what tools fit best for your situation. I may earn a small commission for some of these as I participate in their affiliate program. This costs you nothing and supports the show. Got Feedback On This Episode? I'd love to hear what you thought about this episode. If you have a minute or two, it's less than five questions and works great on your phone or computer. [Share Your Thoughts] (https://podclick.me/thoughts) Platforms Discussed: -------------------- Donation Only (No RSS Tools) [Paypal] (https://www.paypal.com) [Buy Me a Coffee] (https://podclick.me/buymeacoffee) [Fanlist] (https://www.fanlist.com) [Kofi] (https://ko-fi.com/Manage/) Premium Content Tools [Supercast] (https://supportthisshow.com/supercast) [Patreon] (https://supportthisshow.com/patreon) [Memberful] (https://supportthisshow.com/memberful) [Hello Audio] (https://supportthisshow.com/helloaudio) [Captivate] (https://supportthisshow.com/captivate) [Buzzsprout] (https://supportthisshow.com/buzzsprout) All of these platforms have their own strengths. If I just wanted to accept money, I'd use [Buy Me a Coffee] (https://podclick.me/buymeacoffee) . If I wanted to sell premium content, I would use [Supercast] (https://supportthisshow.com/supercast) (although Captivate and Buzzsprout are very attractive if you are using them for hosting). Supercast has a super easy onboarding for new listeners with a two-click install, and their percentage is in alignment with others (if not less). Keep In Mind: A show with WOW content will likely get around 3% of its audience to engage. New podcasters should focus on building great content and their audience instead of monetizing, which can lead to disappointment. There are MANY other ways to make money with your podcast besides advertising and asking for support. See my book [Profit From Your Podcast] (https://www.profitfromyourpodcast.com/book) .

Podcast Movement Reflections 2024 from DC - Now With Plugins!

Today I reflect on my trip to Washington DC to Podcast Movement 2024. We talk about the gear, some presentations, some things that could only happen at Podcast Movement in DC, and why there wasn't any carpet. I used the Rode Interview Pro Portable Microphone to record some interviews in the very noisy vendor hall. With this in mind, I thought I'd talk about plugins that can clean things up.

These Two Words Cost Him Millions of Dollars

DISCLAIMER: Today's show contains adult content. Maybe listen to this one when the kiddies aren't around. Today, I share some insights that will explain why I spent close to $400 to fly to Atlanta for one day. Then I share some stories about some strange laws in the UK that are getting people arrested for posting memes and two words that cost a comedian millions of dollars.

Unraveling the Power of Word-of-Mouth in Podcast Recommendations

70% of podcasts are discovered via word of mouth (Jacobs Media). So if we can understand what makes someone recommend something, we can start to do that in our show. We heard words like affordable, quality, and unique. Some people recommend based on a relationship that delivers value. When you deliver something you can't get any place else.

Because of My Podcast: Dave Edition

My last day at Libsyn was July 12th, 2024. I'm starting a new chapter in my podcasting career, and so to announce the next chapter, I thought it might be fun (and maybe inspirational? ) for newbies to see what is possible with a podcast. Last week I talked about my journey through technology. I explained that where I am now is NOT where I started and it took years to get here. Today I'm talking about the most important benefit of podcasting (and it's not money, or fame). It's relationships. You will see that one teacher gave me a nudge. Once I started podcasting (because it was WAY HARDER in 2005), when I wasn't working on making GREAT content, I was working on growing my network through relationships. I am still in contact with many of those today. Your Podcast Leads To Opportunities ----------------------------------- You are seen as an expert (no matter if you want to be or not) and that positioning leads to opportunities. Those opportunities lead to relationships. Those new relationships lead to more opportunities. If you DON'T QUIT, the wheel keeps turning. It does not happen overnight, and it might take years. Some might say I havefirst mover advantage. Let's say that is true. So did a whole lot of other people. There is one big difference.I didn't quit. I'm still here. Opportunities Lead to Relationships ----------------------------------- I had Spreaker, Blubrry, and Libsyn representatives on my show. I would see these people at events. Your podcast can be a digital resume. When the New Media Expo needed a new head for their podcasting track, all of these hosting companies had one name they recommended: Dave Jackson.
