When No One (STILL) Is Listening - Dave Woodward - FHR #317 ClickFunnels Radio

    • Entrepreneurship

Why Dave Decided to Talk About When No One STILL Isn’t Listening:
Dave felt pretty vulnerable and even weak today guys. He saw that this podcast wasn’t doing as great as he wanted it to, people weren’t listening and so value wasn’t being added to the community he’s doing this for. But, after a conversation with a man named Chandler and a man named Stephen Larsen the show was saved. Dave saw the importance of the content he was able to produce and also HOW he was going to go about displaying it.
Tips and Tricks for You and Your Business:
(0:34) Dave Was Curious, Is Anybody Listening to this Thing?
(2:42) It’s Not that Dave’s Podcast Isn’t Great, He’s Just Been Going About It Wrong
(4:43) You Need to Thank Chandler for this Part
(6:17) “I Had to Start Over…”
(8:12) Marketing = Stories
(8:59) You HAVE To Publish Especially When You Don’t Want to
Quotable Moments:
(7:40) “Is there any single, greatest tip you’ve learned from being so close to Russell? Well...take your phone out and start recording”
(9:19) “When you’re publishing, one of the most important things to publish is about the journey. I’m going to take my own advice and share my own journey now.”
Other Tidbits:
Through a conversation with his boys, Dave saw the importance of continuing his journey through this podcast.

Speaker 1: 00:00 Welcome to funnel hacker radio podcast, where we go behind the scenes and uncover the tactics and strategies top entrepreneurs are using to make more sales, dominate their markets and how you can get those same results. Here's your host, Dave Woodward.
Speaker 2: 00:17 Hey, funnel hackers, welcome back. Uh, this is going to be, yeah, a little bit more of a vulnerable podcasts and I typically do. Um, so what's happened here recently is there'd been a million things going on and I'm just trying to figure out, you know, how do I best use my time? So I sit near, they can, you know, is this whole podcasting thing even worth it to me? And so I started going back and I never ever checked my stats. I'm just, when I don't, I just, I'm always concerned, no one's listening. And so I thought, you know, I better go figure this thing out. So I started, uh, this podcast, uh, basically it was three years ago. It was February of 2016. We're now in February, 2019 and over the last three years, it's been really kind of a, a crazy situation. I've got just over 300 episodes now.
Speaker 2: 01:04 It's about a hundred or so a year, I guess. And I started kind of taking a look to see what's been going on and it was steadily going up. It was kind of flat for the first almost a hundred episodes, whereas between basically 500 to 700 downloads per per app per episode. And then I got to about 100 and I started to, to get some momentum. So realize it took me almost a hundred episodes before it even got any momentum. Uh, really got to get things going. So I was recording this thing. I would him try to go back and take the stats are, so episode 100 was a fee was April, 2017 so almost a year and two or three months before I even got any real momentum. And then from like 100 to one 50 it started ticking up to about almost a 1500 episodes. And then I put a whole bunch of money behind it and a jumped up to around 3000 episodes between like one 60 to almost two 30 but at that point, um, I stopped doing any ad spin on it and just kind of let, let's just kind of go.
Speaker 2: 02:08 I thought, you know what? Things are going great. And it really went well if like two 30 to two 70 and I thought you don't, Gosh, I've got this thing down. I finally figured this thing out. And then what happened was after like two 70 it has steadily gone down and I was so from like two 70 started, that was like Septemb
