Summary:
On today's episode, I want to talk about what happens after you support the big players. When you support the big players, you become a big player yourself. Now I am not saying this to sound cocky or arrogant. I don't feel like, oh, I'm a big player or anything like that in real estate or in the podcasting world.
But let me tell you the shift that has happened. Nine months before Podfest, I was at Podcast Movement. And let me tell you guys, I felt nervous. I felt intimidated. I made very few connections. I came home and felt frustrated with myself that I didn't make as many connections as I wanted to, but you know what I did? I started to listen to the podcasts and support the people I met there. And suddenly, I got noticed. Now, again, it's just like real estate, where if you seek to build relationships in real estate, you'll be successful. But if you seek to make money, you'll find you yourself not having success and not building what you really want. So, the point is, support what the big players are doing.
I didn't just go to these conferences to meet some people and then leave. No. I met these people like I shared about in the last episode, Michael and Nick, heard about their podcasts, came home and wrote them a review.
I bought their books. I left each book a review. I sent them an email and said, “It was so nice to meet you at X event. It was a pleasure to connect and hear about your show. Congratulations on X number of downloads. I just left you a podcast review,” and I sent them an email and talked about some things that I really enjoyed from their show.
I think these two things go hand in hand when you support the big players, whether you have one podcast download or 50 million podcast downloads, it really doesn't matter. When you show support for others, they will start to notice you. They'll start to notice what you're doing, and they'll check it out.
Do you want to become a big player in the podcast scene, real estate, whatever it is that you do? Well, support the people. When you do that, you start to get noticed, and you become a big player.
