#018: How a Weekly Email Doubled My Downloads

Podcasts for Profit with Morgan Franklin | Podcasting Strategy for Podcasters

Over the past 2 months I’ve gone into the trenches of digital marketing research for my podcasts to figure out what will actually bring more downloads and listeners to each episode.

Like so many business owners, brands and podcasters I knew the power of email marketing but it sounded like a major pain in the neck. Could it really help that much?? The marketing gurus aren’t lying to us about this one - sending a weekly email has more than doubled my downloads in the past 2 months and in this episode I’m going to break down for you exactly how I did it.

In this episode:

(2:18) The guest email that got my episode 30,000 downloads.

(5:02) How to find the best place to host your emails and contacts.

(6:47) How to start building an email list of listeners who actually want to open your messages.

(10:25) The strategy I’ve used to grow my list since my first subscriber.

(11:26) Why listeners are more likely to listen and buy from an email than social media.
