The Three Buckets of Podcast Growth, with Adam Schaeuble

I've been saying for over a decade that 50% of downloads are lies. The truth came out when the IOS 17 update hit, and everyone realized the Emperor had only half of his clothes.

But Analytics? Those are GOLD!

Seth Silvers from storyon.co shares the importance of analytics and metrics in measuring success. 

We go into the significance of retention rates, the need for experimentation in formats and the first 5 minutes of an episode, and how he communicate all this to their clients.

Our conversation highlights the challenges of understanding downloads versus plays, the role of completion rates, and the long-term benefits of nurturing an audience. 
Key moments: • Seth emphasizes the importance of analytics in podcasting
 • Retention rates are more important than downloads for measuring success
 • Clients should be willing to experiment with their podcast content
 • The first 30 seconds of a podcast are crucial for retaining listeners
 • Spotify says the first 5 minutes is crucial to their recommendation engine
 • Paid advertising won't fix a bad podcast or business
 • Feedback loops in podcasting can be long and challenging
 • It's essential to track metrics weekly to make timely adjustments
 • Podcasts serve best as a middle-of-funnel marketing tool
 • Quality content leads to organic growth and audience retention
 • Understanding the difference between downloads and plays is vital for podcasters

Invoicing Best Practices and Methods for Getting Paid! 🤑 - with Freelancer Eric Rosenberg

What are the consequences of hiring the wrong client? What if you need to make money but don't have any good clients yet? Do you start with UpWork or Fiverr?

Ashley Dickerson-Ellison shares some great stories about leaving her teaching job when they moved overseas for a couple years. She starting her podcast editing business and did what many of us do: Offered services on UpWork.

Make sure you stay to the end for the story about the guy who interrupted her trip, then came back and asked if she had references. It's a horrible, but funny story I think we can all relate to.
Key Discussion Points • The cost of lower-value clients on commodity job websites
 • The mental shift from an employee to self-employed mindset
 • Building a personal brand with a podcast and website 
 • The importance of getting help
