Why Would People Listen to You?

Your podcast is a gift. The question is are you a person who buys people a gift card (which screams "not very personal, not much thinking put into the gift) vs a personalized gift that shows you really know what the person wants.  So Why Would People Listen to You? Because you took the time to find out what they want, and then give it to them. You don't need to know everything, you just need to know what they want and give it to them.  Your Audience Wants You To Succeed Your audience isn't sitting there waiting to criticize you, they want you to succeed. Recently Demi Lavato at the grammys started a song and was overcome with emotion as she tried to sing a VERY PERSONAL song. She ended up having to stop the song and restart.  People didn't boo her when she stopped. They cheered her on to win. We are all convinced that people are just waiting to hate our show and that's just not the case.  You can see the video I mentioned at www.podcastconsultant.com/54 Ready To Start a Podcast?
