Episode Takeaways 



To showcase the true reach of your podcast to sponsors - combine views, subscribers, for all of your content, including your shorts, across every platform.




Deep dive into your audience analytics, including age, gender, and location. This will enable you to identify the brands that fit in with those demographics.




Use your audience’s interests and demographics to guide the content you create, particularly your subscribers. At the same time, work to align your content with the sponsors your audience is likely to attract.




Build yourself a standout “one-sheet” and pitch with confidence. Know your numbers and make your podcast impossible to ignore. Sponsors want to know where they fit in – so show them.
