Learn how you can earn money when someone uses your iTunes subscription link to subscribe to your podcast.

Every podcaster should have a link to their podcast in the iTunes store on their website. You can see mine in the upper right hand corner widget area of this site.

It’s important to make it easy for people to find and subscribe to your podcast when they arrive on your website.

TPS Ep. 044 – Media Kits and A New Sponsorship Opportunity for Your Podcast

February 28, 2011 by Ray Ortega 5 Comments

Learn how to start preparing your podcast’s media kit and about a new affiliate sponsorship opportunity from Audible.com.

I start off by answering a question from Sean who wants to know how he can improve the audio for his screencasts? He is currently using a headset but I talk about some different options that he can upgrade to and I have a surprise option for him that will work for free.

This episode takes a look at two different ways to start guiding your show towards earning income. Mike from Rock’n the Mike Podcast calls in to ask about building a media kit and what to do when approached by sponsors.

I answer his questions and give you some insight into how to start building your own media kit which will enable you to approach sponsors you might be interested in or provide those sponsors interested in you with valuable information about your show.

After that I talk about a new sponsorship opportiunity that is available to any podcaster who applies to and is accepted into the Audible.com affiliate program. This program gives you complete control over how much promotion you want to include in your show and offers a healthy return just for getting your listeners to sign up for a free trial.

Steve from Waves of Tech gets on the mic with me for a interview all about his role in talking Audible into providing this sponsorship opportunity to the independent podcaster and we discuss the plusses and minuses of being part of this program and placing an ad into your show.
