Ep 5 - Daniel O'Donohue - Being a voice online

Welcome to the 5th episode of Minds Behind Maps!This is a bit of a special episode, though maybe one of my favorite conversations I've had the chance to have so far. We talk about creating content online, it gets a bit meta about geospatial podcasting but we also touch on some of the different paths one takes in life.About Daniel:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielodonohue/Twitter: https://twitter.com/MapScapingMapscaping: https://mapscaping.com/Timestamps:- 4:15 : Beginning of episode, Daniel introduces himself- 9:20 : The beginning of the Mapscaping podcast- 15:30 : Leading a conversation- 18:40 : Daniel’s editorial decisions- 23:40 : Mapscaping’s “Grand Plan”- 26:25 : Podcasting as a medium- 37:50 : Finding one's voice online - 39:55 : Marketing the podcast & spreading the word- 44:30 : Targeting a specific audience- 51:00 : Building an audience is the true barrier to entry- 55:00 : Where does the name “Mapscaping” come from?- 57:40 : Starting doesn’t require much means- 59:50 : Inspiring others- 1:07:45 : The accessibility of the people within the geospatial field- 1:11:50 : Building communities- 1:15:05 : Building a business around Mapscaping- 1:20:45 : Monetizing a podcast- 1:30:10 : Daniel’s previous lives- 1:44:15 : Daniel's last thoughts & media suggestionsLinks towards topics in the conversation:Mapscaping episode about personal branding ("Building A Personal Brand In The Geospatial Industry"): https://t.co/fr7HpatKuV?amp=1Seth Godin's website: https://www.sethgodin.com/Seth Godin's Akimbo podcast: https://www.akimbo.link/
