In the previous article, we discussed how you can take advantage of the Ultimate Directory of Podcasters, shared by Steve Olsher, in order to create connections with top industry names. We explored the Podcast Revolution, the 1st part of the free workshop where Steve underlines all the benefits of the podcasting business model. And eventually, we discovered that podcast listenership is set to explode in the next years.
Podcasting is a medium with unlimited potential and countless benefits but it’s under-utilized at the moment, and the podcasting circle is fairly tight. This makes the perfect moment in time for aspiring podcasters to share their message with the world.

- You always have the chance to direct people to your website or landing pages to continue the conversation with the prospects

The push method represents the old way of communication, like radio, television, newspapers, magazines, email, social media marketing. With this method, a message is being distributed and pushed on a mass market basis to all who have access to the respective distribution channel regardless of what the people want to receive.
The pull method represents the future of all content consumption. It is built on the foundation of what the consumer exactly wants, taking into consideration the device people want to use or the channel. The pull method is the future of marketing communication. It helps develop more meaningful relationships, consistently generating no-cost leads, and ultimate drive huge gains in revenue and profit.
- Push marketing examples: NBC, the New York Times
- Pull marketing examples: Netflix, iTunes, the Huffington Post
People consume podcast shows using their headphones and that creates a strong bond with the podcaster, it’s like listening to music. There’s a personal connection.
Podcast listeners are 130% more likely to invest in a product, program, or service recommended by the podcast host.
Podcast listeners have money to spend based on recent research. The research uncovers that 41% of podcast listeners have an annual household income of $75,000. 15% of them have more than $150,000 annual income.
Podcast listenership is set to explode:
Because technology is now available to the masses, that was not available in early times. People had to take many steps before getting access to a podcast show.
In the next 5 years or so, all cars will have available wifi connections. The dashboard of our cars is changing. A dashboard with features like phone, music, maps, messages, podcasts, audiobooks. Apple and Google are developing car apps at the moment.
Proven Strategies for Turning Visibility Into Cash
Steve mentions that getting booked starts with identifying the RIGHT shows to appear on, those where you have the best chances to get booked, in order to connect with “icons of influence” who host the shows and have already built their following of loyal fans and listeners.
The key thing is to get booked on shows that share the same interests with your area of expertise. It’s way better to get booked on smaller shows in the same exact niche with yours, than getting booked on popular shows that are more generic.
How to Identify the Right Shows
The “Riches are in the Niches”.
This expression in the world of podcasts should become your Mantra, Steve continues…
A show that focuses on your particular topic will have a VERY high percentage of listeners who fall within your target market and have a demonstrated interest in this subject matter.
These are the shows I suggest you focus on first.
Not only will you see a significantly higher response rate to your teachings and offerings, you’ll be able to cut your teeth on smaller shows and gain comfort with speaking in sound bites, interacting in an effective manner with the hosts and be ready to crush it on the larger shows when the invitations come… which they will.
VBV (Visibility Begets Visibility)
Visibility is the lifeblood of your business and visibility begets more visibility – the more visibility you have, the more visibility you’ll generate.
The Profiting from Podcasts training covers 5 different types of podcasting shows, and an interview-style show holds the highest likelihood for you to get booked on, by far.
Next thing is to use iTunes and search for your TOI (topic of influence) and repeat the process for other podcasters and shows.

Monetizing your Visibility – the $1000 Funnel
Unlike traditional broadcast media, podcast hosts will always invite you to share the best place for listeners to get more information about you, to connect with you or to grab one of your free resources. This is where The $1,000 Funnel begins.
1) It must be FREE and cost you nothing to deliver.
2) It must further the conversation from your interview, and
3) It must be an absolute ‘no-brainer’ to provide one’s name and email address to receive.
In other words, the listener has to feel as though the value of the freebie far exceeds the ‘price’ of providing their name and email.
He appears on a lot of personal development related shows where he uncovers his proven framework for helping people discover their WHAT, the one thing they were born to do.
At the end of the interview, the host will always allow him to invite listeners to connect if they like more information. This is the moment he shares a free copy of his New York Times bestseller book, What is your What.
On average, 250 people provide their emails to get access to the free book.
Then, on the same page, he offers a different version of the same resource. A free hardcover copy of the book where people have only to pay for shipping, something like $7.99.
20% of those 250 people say yes, and buy the hardcover book.
And although having people to pay $8 is not exactly a business, this is a very important moment as Steve describes…
Because the most difficult thing in any business is to acquire a customer. To get people to spend one dollar with you. After this point, the next sale is exponentially easier, and every sale after the 2nd point is even easier to make.
When someone invests in you, it completely changes everything.
I have to agree on that, this is the most difficult point in selling and marketing in general. This way a passive prospect becomes an active customer, even if they only spend a dolar.
He says…
We recorded one of the last Workshops I did, broke it down into short-form videos, added the written materials from the live event and sell it as an online course. After someone invests in grabbing the hardcover book for $7.99, we present a one-time-only offer to invest in The Reinvention workshop online course for just $49 and approximately 25% of them do so.
And he continues…
As I said, roughly 20% of those who opt-in for the eBook choose to get a hardcover copy. This equates to 50 people. At $7.99 apiece, I generate approximately $400 in revenue.
Of these 50 people, roughly 25% invest in The Reinvention Workshop Online Course. This equates to approx. 13 people. At $49 apiece, I generate, on
average, $612 in revenue.
Add the two together and it adds up to $1,012 in immediate revenue.
This method can add up very quickly, as Steve appears in multiple interviews per week. But even if you have only a few hours to spend in a week, still, you can do miracles.
Final Words
I really enjoyed the Get Clients from Podcasts workshop by Steve Olsher. Now the Podcasting method becomes clearer.
And I want to be completely honest with you.
If you’re just getting started, then you need to be clear on your topic of influence (TOI), and you need to be fluent enough to appear on other people’s shows or to create your own podcasting show.
To make Profiting from Podcasts course a success for you, you need to work following the training and you need to have a strong presence online.
Additionally, you need to create free resources and lead magnets in order to hook people into your content. In other words, you need to have an active sales funnel in place.
But even if you don’t have products or services to sell, appearing in podcasts and interviews will increase your authority, and help you gain high-targeted leads that you can convert them into cold hard cash shortly.
This is where I can help you with my bonuses to get recognized faster and I will guide you through the training step-by-step.
All in all, the material Steve shared are high-quality, comprehensive, and can get you booked on top podcasting shows.
You have nothing to lose in trying Steve’s methods. They are free. Grab them now when there’s still time.
