QUOTES:
“If you were a coach or consultant and are listening to this, you are going to be putting your expertise to the forefront. So don’t worry about what Joe Rogan or Jack Canfield or any of those [people] are doing.”
“Don’t look at it as competition, but as collaboration.”
“It’s not about content creation, it’s about content curation.”
“I can create content from somebody else’s content, as long as I am crediting the source, but you already have content, and that is the bigger message.”
“The average podcast length is between 20 to about 35 minutes somewhere in that is the sweet spot. It is not about how long somebody else’s podcast is, it is about how much time will your ideal client or prospect engage with the type of content you will be delivering?”
