This is a YouTube video titled "254: What to think about when starting your own podcast" containing a monologue or talk from July 16, 2024, discussing the benefits of podcasting for networking, building relationships, and gaining exposure. The speaker shares personal experiences about how podcasting has opened doors to opportunities and connections.
I will say that I absolutely love podcasting. It's something that I have done for the past five years and it has opened the door to so many incredible opportunities. Right? So if say I wanted to talk to somebody who is an absolute superstar in my mind, I could never just call them and say, hey, I'd like to sit down for an hour and ask you every question I've ever thought of. You know, they'd go no. However, because you have a podcast you're able to pitch to your dream guests and ask them to come on your show and because there's something in it for them as well, because they're getting that exposure which everybody as a personal brand or is selling something needs exposure, they'll say yes most of the time. And so I love it for the amount of people that I have been able to meet and make friends with and network with and do business together, which all start started with a podcast relationship.
