ZOOM WORKSHOP THURS @ 7PM Podcast Workshop / Is Your Sceenwriting Any Good?
Greetings,
How do you know if your screenwriting is any good? The (kind of crazy) common wisdom screenwriters get all the time is "pay people to tell you".
So we take classes, buy coverage, hire editors . . . But in reality, unless audiences actually tell you your work is great, you know nothing. When audiences like your work, it doesn't matter if teachers, readers, and editors hate every word you write. The cheapest way to get your work in front of millions is via a podcast.
- Podcasts are easy, cheap, and fun to create.
- Podcasts are easy, cheap, and fun to promote.
- When they are good, they gain audiences without any help from you at all.
- They are a great way to prove to yourself and to the world that you can write, direct, and produce.
Launching and promoting a podcast is easier than writing a book or producing a film, and it's a cheaper way to collect an audience. It's a great way to road test whether or not your work is good enough to support you, and it gives you a way to experiment with making your work easier to love. If you are a writer, screenwriter, director, or producer, a podcast is the best micro-investment you can make in your career. It's also a perfect-pandemic proof project.

APRIL 29 @ 7PM Podcast Quick Launch and Profitable Production
If you want to learn how to produce podcasts swiftly, profitably, and without purchasing a lot of expensive equipment, sign up for this live workshop. You will learn how to record, edit, and release your podcast, and several ways to use it to generate revenue, and you will receive several supporting videos and workbooks that deliver the in-depth skills you need to know to quickly thrive as a podcaster.
Tip: Apple has just announced this week that you will be able to sell your podcasts though iPhones and their online store. This means that, like books, films, or apps, you can sell audio programming. The royalty rates are very high, and Apple handles all the billing. This will be a game changer for many independent authors, screenwriters, and producers because they won't have to use third parties like Patreon to monetize their content.

If you are an author, screenwriter, producer, attorney, or anyone who sells expert services, producing a podcast is one of the very best ways for you to build a pool of fans who like you and your work enough to buy what you sell and recommend you to others. It’s also one of the least expensive and swift ways to create and release great content.
