Use the podcasting platform to build and monetize your personal brand
It has never been easier to launch your own media channel or to start building dedicated subscribers around the globe. But because it has never been easier for you, it has also never been easier for everyone else.
That creates the massive problem that all podcasters face – commoditization.
The medium is powerful and is growing fast. With such a low barrier of entry, hundreds of thousands of podcasts have been created in the last few years. And while there is great opportunity the truth is that for every podcast that gains international attention and actually brings in revenue there are thousands that never garner more than 100 listeners.
Most podcasters have no idea how to create a distinctive show that separates them from the sea of other hosts. They don’t know what it takes to build their podcast for the long term, so most podcasters burnout.
You start strong, but quickly become inconsistent in your ability to produce shows, you don’t see the kind of growth or results you were expecting, so you quit.
Or maybe you publish regularly but have not figured out how to generate significant and meaningful income from all the time and the work that you’re investing into your podcast.
Or it could be the show isn’t growing properly. You struggle to find guests that align with your audience and battle to provide new and worthwhile content on a frequent basis.
And, then there is the category of potential hosts that want to start a podcast but haven’t yet made the leap. You keep stalling on launching your podcast because you wonder if anyone will listen. Self-doubt often sets in that can cause us to ask “is my content good enough? Will I be a good host? Will people want to be on my podcast? Will anyone want to have me on their podcast?” Ultimately, this leads all of us to go nowhere.
Most podcasters end up frustrated and discouraged because they know podcasting provides a massive chance to reach a lot of people. But they get stuck in the minutiae of the technological details. Or they get overwhelmed at the relentless demands to continually put out new content. Or they just get discouraged, frustrated, and unmotivated to keep trying.
We have worked with some of the top podcasts in the world as well as with plenty of those just getting started on their podcast journey. We ourselves have been on both ends of the spectrum as we have been a part of building, launching, and growing several different podcasts and we know how you feel. We also know how to help.
We have seen many friends start their podcast with wild ambition, only to fizzle out shortly after. We have also come across many people who feel the calling to start a podcast, but who can never seem to get all the details in place to get it launched.
We also know there is no shortage of podcaster stories who do get their show launched and produce it consistently, but end up facing the all too common truth that if you do it wrong you can put in massive amounts of time and see very little results.
The good news is that we also know about the other side too. We have launched a podcast that got millions of downloads and generated hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue, that we then sold to a buyer. We’ve also launched a recent podcast that reached the top 100 in its category within a matter of months of our first episode.
This isn’t to say we know it all, but we do work with some of the biggest and most influential podcasters in the world.
Develop the mission, purpose, and business plan for your personal brand, build your body of content, and learn how to master the art of the spoken word.

Our live event series is comprised of each of these 4 phases broken down into 12 original curriculums of unique and specific content all geared to help you grow your income, scale your business and impact millions of people. Podcast Power is the path to building a full-fledged speaking business.

Discover proven strategies that will help you at any stage of your podcast career, getting started or growth mode. The fact that you are speaking right into a person’s ear on a regular basis makes this medium more influential than any other type of social media or direct marketing on the planet.
80% of the US population listens to podcasts
Podcasting can be one of the most powerful marketing tools at your disposal and podcast listeners are some of the most loyal fans out there. This is an almost guaranteed way, if you do it right, to create a loyal fan base who wants to hear from you, learn from you and be a part of your community. This is the core of our 2-day event, Podcast Power.
We leverage large group teaching, small group sessions, 1:1 coaching, and insightful interventions because we know that is what you need but never knew you wanted!
If you want to get real time feedback from our team of expert strategists and our well-versed community on what it takes to succeed with the podcasting medium, look no further, you found it here.
Of course, the other option is to not get this type of training, and figure it out yourself. That is definitely an option. But you should know that if you launch a podcast improperly you may miss your one and only shot to build a reputation as a great host. You can also quickly burn yourself out or burn your audience out if you aren’t careful.
If you don’t have the right balance of strategy, systems and consistency to do the work it takes to produce a legitimate show, it can hurt you more than it can help you.
Realistically, you will spend way more time and money trying to figure this out by yourself, or by trying to consolidate tons of free resources that have lots of conflicting ideas, suggestions and advice. But you can absolutely do that.
The other option is to learn from people who teach podcasting. However, the unfortunate risk here is that most of the people teaching others how to do this, have never really done it themselves. And, even if they have been able to produce a great show, most don’t have a proven plan for tying it into a more cohesive overall strategy to grow your personal brand. And few people have access to the network of top podcasters like we do – and those that do typically do not share what other successful hosts are doing to produce build strong podcast platforms.
Brand Builders Group is uniquely positioned in the fact that we provide real strategy, we have been on several of the largest shows in the world as guests, and we have hosted several very successful podcasts of our own. Including our current podcast (shameless plug for The Influential Personal Brand podcast).
This is how we have learned and developed a simple and straightforward method to help other podcasters, or aspiring podcasters, like you. We teach and we do. That is what you want from a strategy firm. Let us help you.
The numbers don’t lie. In fact, they just grow year after year.
Now to figure out how to leverage that power in ways that work, are long-lasting, and monetizable. That’s a different story. There are certain strategies and techniques that keep your message in people’s ears and your name in their conversations. Spend 2 days with our team and we’re sure you will develop a podcast that will stand out from the crowd as you learn from experienced podcast producers, hosts and seasoned podcast guests who know how to leverage your podcast (and others) to grow your platform.
That’s worth it. That’s long term. That’s personal branding that works.
To help make this a total no-brainer decision we want you to feel confident that you will get all the information, guidance and tools you need to be successful. So, let’s sweeten the deal and make it easy for you to say yes.
Our Premiere membership program includes 2 live virtual training webinars every month, access to our content archive through your own learning portal and 24/7 community support and ongoing feedback and education through our private members only Facebook group.
We know that $3,000 is a meaningful amount of money. It’s also an incredibly small fraction of the amount of money we have paid in both mistakes and education learning these incredible lessons that we have bottled up directly for you. Don’t have enough time now, you never will. Don’t think you can afford it; money will always be a factor.
We also know this upfront investment is a small amount of money compared to what you can make back by having a successful podcast.
A powerful podcast can…
Elevate your entire brand.
Increase your credibility.
Raise the perceived value of what you do.
And generate higher revenues for your business. There are a few things that you can invest such little money into and have the potential to bring such exponential returns back to you in the way of value for your business. Podcasting is one of those things.
