**She Podcasts**

If you’re looking for *quick* and succinct tips on how to podcast, grow your audience, and monetize your show this is NOT the show for you. Will you get all that from this show? Absolutely! And a lot more, but not in way you expect. This show is a personality driven show hosted by powerhouses and podcasting industry experts Jessica Kupferman and Elsie Escobar (supported by their producer John.) They will give you insightful, wise, expert advice about all aspects about the podcasting industry, from advertising and sponsorships, to the latest and greatest microphones and workflows, to how the podcasting industry is failing and thriving. You will also get the reality of what it takes to podcast as working from home women and moms running their own businesses and supporting a vibrant community of women podcasters nearing 10k members. If you don’t like chit chat, banter and feeling like you’re hanging out with Elsie and Jess at their kitchen table (or eavesdropping on them) while they drop some brilliant wisdom about podcasting (and possibly 800 other subjects), go ahead and save yourself some time and move along now

The importance of self promotion - you have to learn to love it and NOT force it.
The podcasting industry has an education problem: people don’t know podcasts + an old model for advertising
What is a perfect partner? And what defines my perfect partner.
What kinds of questions do you need to ask YOURSELF before you choose a sponsor or a sponsor approaches you.
When you should NOT have a sponsor for your podcast.
Smart companies are going to be looking for a return on their investment (ROI) and how you should prepare yourself.
There is a responsibility of both parties (sponsor + podcasters) for a win-win.
How does a podcast that is NOT a business but would like to make a little money shift their mindset about “pimping our their audience,” to being OK about selling their podcast.
Most of us were not raised to sell and hustle.
Elegant hustling FTW!
What kind of experience do you have when YOU go shopping? What do you love and what do you hate? And how that informs how you partner with sponsors.
There are so many distractions online that you must be able to help your audience focus on what they want to focus on.
Treat everybody as if they are brand new.
When you are in sales you will come up with people’s objections - knowing your people’s objections is gold.
Erika reveals the exact email to send a potential advertisers - word for word.
Elegant hustling is about an invitation and connection.
“You don’t learn anything from YES” - says Erika Lyremark
Who you need to contact to start the sales conversation + how to practice selling.
What if nobody buys? How do you refuel and keep going?
What hustling energy can get you - if you just follow through!
How breakthroughs always come when you are not attached to outcomes.

Jumping right in to the scoop about podcasting sponsorship - you ask, we deliver.
What is the definition of a “seasoned podcaster” and why they are not the best to give you advice to help you make money.
Why did Elsie choose that definition of a ‘seasoned podcaster’.
A bit of history of “the podcaster” and how that plays into the culture of monetization and sponsorship in the medium.
Seasoned podcasters have a wealth of experience in building a fanbase, sustaining passion, workflow/hacks and creating great content - NOT how to pitch and sell their podcast.
The way it’s been it’s been - as advertising in podcasting stands.
We break down numbers - download and cash - of the podcasting advertising “standards.”
Time to debunk VOLUME (aka podcast download numbers) as the ONLY way to get sponsorship for your podcast.
Why the CPM model is not the best model for podcasting - Elsie preaches a little bit.
What you need to have in place before you can start looking for and negotiatiating podcast sponsors.
The 3 essential things that you need to get yourself a sponsor for your podcast.
What exactly IS crazy valuable content?
What is the definition of an engaged audience?
ENGAGEMENT + INTIMACY (you being you) = Perfect Partner Results (your perfect partner is your potential sponsor/advertiser)
The ultimate golden ticket to getting the perfect sponsor - and it’s NOT what you think.
Q&A from our She Podcasters! Erika, Kira and Carmen get their questions answered!

FEEDBACK REQUEST!
