Work With Me
I've been podcasting since 2005, and I've seen a lot of things come and go. I can help you plan, launch, grow and monetize your podcast. I offer my services in a variety of shapes and sizes.
The Dave Jackson Difference
While other podcast gurus can coach on you on equipment, media hosts, and all the other pieces of podcasting. Those are the easy parts. What gets people coming back to your show is the content. I've been podcasting since 2005. In 2016 I joined Libsyn (the largest podcast media host) in their tech support (giving me a wide view of the podcasting space). I've been voted the best technology podcast in 2017 and again in 2020. In 2018 I was inducted into the Academy of Podcasting Hall of Fame. I am the author of the book Profit From Your Podcast: Proven Strategies to Turn Listeners into a Livelihood. I have proven strategies to help you understand your audience (even if you don't have one), and take the guesswork out of making a great show that inspires people to tell their friends.
Podcast Mentorship Programs
Podcast mentoring consists of access to the School of Podcasting along with me working side by side with you on a weekly 30-minute call to guide you through launching/growing your show. This includes:
- Help you with your vision, strategy, and (most importantly) your “Why.” You need to determine how you will measure your success. Many podcasters skip this, and they shouldn’t.
- Help you identify your target audience (sometimes called your “avatar”). Oprah called hers “Suzie homemaker.”
- Help you communicate in a way that helps you grab and keep the audience’s attention.
- Help you create your intro and outro (two of the most important parts of your podcast)
- Developing the flow of information in your episode.
