Manage episode 407391723 series 3559872
To carve a distinctive presence in a saturated market, it's imperative to pinpoint a specific niche and cultivate a well-defined target audience. By doing so, you not only stand out but also establish a solid foundation from which to operate. Treat your podcast as a potent business development tool, leveraging it to nurture relationships with your esteemed guests and gradually extend your reach to a broader audience. Maximize your podcast's impact by creating compelling assets like video shorts and audiograms, strategically shared across social media platforms to engage and captivate your audience. Remember, low view counts should not deter your enthusiasm; content is often evergreen and can continue to resonate with audiences months down the road, ultimately contributing to your long-term success in the podcasting realm.
Jeff Mains is an expert at turning ideas into enterprises. He has built five companies totaling over $200 million in combined revenue, and four have been acquired by strategic buyers. He is the founder and CEO of healthcare SaaS Intelligent Contacts headquartered in Plano, Texas. Fanatical about helping entrepreneurs build stellar companies, Jeff is founder and CEO of SaaS growth accelerator Champion Leadership Group where he mentors business leaders to navigate complex challenges and create futureproof business.
