AGENDA

Vice President, Libsyn
The Truth About Podcasting
When Rob Walch speaks about podcasting, people listen. The Hall of Famer is always armed with believable stats and honest commentary about the industry. If you want the truth about podcasting, and your ability to make real money podcasting, you'll want to hear what Rob has to say in our interview, which will include Rob's take on:
- How much REAL money is coming into podcasting?
- Who's getting it?
- What expectations a new or independent podcaster should have about making money
- The best revenue sources to go after
- Do downloads even matter any more?
If you want the truth about your podcast, Rob Walch is going to give it to you. And you can take that to the bank.

9:30-10AM
CEO, Women of Color Podcasters
A Very Cool Way to Make Money
We've all heard about Patreon and PayPal and even the value-for-value model. Those avenues for revenue have been around and talked about for many years. Danielle Desir is going to let us in on one way that isn't used often enough: a paid community membership. When you have a loyal tribe, and you provide great content, don't be surprised when members of your loyal tribe are willing to pay you for that content. Danielle is doing it, and she'll explain how you can launch your paid community membership. She'll detail how you can easily pull in your first 100 members and educate us on how to automate the setup to save time and energy.

10-10:30AM
Founder/CEO, Pod Digital Media
Rita Bautista
Founder/CEO, Latina Podcast Network
Should You Join a Network to Make Money?
Does your show need to be part of a podcast network? How do you get your show into a network? And, most importantly, can you make REAL money by being involved with a network? All of those questions will be answered by Latina Podcasters Network founder Rita Bautista.
As the founder of the Latina Podcasters Network, Rita connects aspiring as well as established Mujeres Latinas, Latinos, and the Latinx community to ensure they receive market rate for their media talent. In other words, Rita is helping podcasters make REAL money doing the side hustle they love.

10:30-11AM
Michelle Tafoya
Host, Sideline Sanity

11-11:30AM
Oscar Merry
Founder, Fountain Podcast App
Is Bitcoin The Way to Get Paid?
Oscar Merry developed the podcast listening app called Fountain. His app allows creators to create and share show clips, and get paid by their listeners using Bitcoin. Is this how all podcasters will eventually get paid? How do creators get in on the crypto game? Is it easy to use and understand? Is there a middleman? Why is this way better than Patreon or PayPal or other forms of payment? We get into the weeds of all these issues with Oscar in this important interview.


Noon-12:30PM
Founder/CEO, Amplifi Media
The Perfect Perspective
Steve Goldstein was a successful radio broadcaster for decades. If he wanted to, he could still be in the radio business, making good money with a successful company. However, Steve saw the change coming with audio shifting from linear to on-demand and how rabid fans were for their favorite podcast, the way they used to be for their favorite radio hosts. Steve dropped the keys and jumped in early.
Now one of the most respected voices in podcasting, Steve has the perfect perspective, having worked with young broadcasters and helped them grow into big success stories. He now sees the same happening in the podcast world and will share his knowledge on what you need to accomplish to be that next big money-making podcast.

Host, Salad With A Side Of Fries

1-1:30PM
Host, The Eric Zane Podcast
How To Make Money Five Days Per Week
Eric Zane was a successful radio host, until he wasn't. A few years ago, home sick with the flu, Zane answered his phone and was given the news that his days as a successful radio host were done. Career: Over. Income: None. State of Mind: Shaky.
Eric knew he was talented and created great content, and he knew he had an audience. It was then that he decided to head to his attic and start podcasting in 2019. Today, he refers to the day he was let go as his "fire-versary" ... before he heads to the bank to deposit his BIG podcast revenue checks, which now total 6 figures per year. Eric will share every aspect of his turn to podcasting to make his lucrative living.

1:30-2pm
Matt Pinfield

 DAY TWO

9:30-9:45AM
CEO, School of Podcasting
Hall of Famer Dave Jackson
The number one podcast teacher in the space returns to our event. There are few people in podcasting more well known than the CEO of the School of Podcasting. Dave will fill us in on the reality of making money at podcasting. Can you do it? What will it take to make podcasting your full-time job? How many income streams should you have ... or how many can you have? He'll tell us about the three podcasters he knows who are making a lot of money and how they are doing it.
And we'll find out if Dave thinks getting paid in Bitcoin is going to work for the majority of hosts in the future.

9:45-10:30AM
Podcast Radio co-founders Gerry Edwards and Paul Chandler, and former KROQ-FM morning co-host Gene Baxter, who now works for Podcast Radio.

11AM-11:30AM
President, Jam Street Media
You Need to Spend Money to Make Money
The downloads and listens are not going to miraculously appear for you. Podcasters need to work to get listeners. Matty Staudt knows all about working hard. He started out in radio and transitioned to podcasting. Now, Matty is teaching podcasters how to launch and how to make a career from their podcasts. It's all a process, and one Matty has executed successfully with too many podcasters to count.
Matty will tell us about what podcasters should spend their money on to promote their shows. What he tells us will help podcasters get their numbers up.
You will also get a Matty reality check. You need to be realistic about your podcast and its viability. Just because you launch doesn't mean listeners will show up. You need to do the work and set realistic expectations.

11:30AM-Noon
Karl Heberger
Host, Who Are These Podcasts?
Proving Great Content Will Always Win
It all started out as an idea. Karl Heberger and a friend launched a podcast that, in a fun way, mocked other podcasts. When other podcasters heard what WATP was, they began talking about the show. It was classic word-of-mouth marketing. Most hosts took the criticism well, and some even joined the show as special guests. Others, like Stuttering John (formerly of The Howard Stern Show) threatened to sue. That just made the show even more popular.
Today, WATP has become a full-time job for Karl thanks to his Patreon account and other streams of revenue. You'll hear all about how he did it in our July 20 interview.

Noon-12:30PM
Buzz Knight
The radio industry is familiar with Buzz from his work with on-air talent across the country. Now, as the host of the Takin a Walk podcast, Buzz details how he puts the show together and his plans to turn his new hobby, interviewing legends, into a business

12:30-1PM
Hannah Berner
Host & Creator, Berning in Hell
Why the former reality TV star is now a two-time podcaster, and how this super-funny lady is bringing in extra income with podcasting to supplement her stand-up gigs.

1-1:30PM
Gahndi details all the new — and future — features Patreon has to offer creators to help them generate revenue ... no matter how many downloads they bring in with their shows. Patreon is the number one paywall platform for podcasters to make a living.

1:30-2PM
Traci DeForge
Founder, Produce Your Podcast
Traci details how to build a community that you can then charge for your information. And she talks about the many ways you can re-purpose your content to keep eyeballs and ears paying attention to your show.
