More About This Show Sean Ackerman What has been your biggest challenge since starting your podcast, and how did you overcome it? Cause the audience loves a story Michael. Arista Hageman What social media tool has helped grow your business the most? Which ones do you not bother with. Why? Simon Knapp If you had to, which would you give up: the Steelers or the Porsche? Lisa Cummings We all know that you study comedy. If you had to come up with two funny ice breakers for meeting new people at Podcast Movement, how would you "break into" a group of already-chatting-with-each-other minglers? I know you don't claim to be a comedian, but...you know...improvise for fun. Timothy Dwight Moser Do you study only current comedy, or do you spend time on some of the older classics, e.g. Monty Python (my favorite)? Mike Kelley What are your predictions on the future of podcasting? How do you think it will evolve and change over the next few years? Scott Webber If you could be a professional race car driver or a professional drummer what would you choose ? Vagarro Willie If you could sit down and have a beer with your parents today about the solohour podcast, how do you think the conversation would go? What would be their opinion of the show? Brent Danis Whats the best way to offer value to someone who you are not connected to yet? Jennifer Ellis We've heard that podcasting is one way to build community, what other effective ways do believe could build community other than podcasting and blogging? Dwain Scott What process do you like better: Recording then adding the intro and outro or doing it all as one straight show? How much time did this take away from post production. Jeff Stephens What type of product delivery have you found most used by members of your training/solo lab? Is it pretty even between video, documents/PDFs, checklists, tutorials. What has been your findings with your audience? Is there an overarching trend? Thanks man, keep up the awesomeness! Craig Morrison What are the best first steps for building your audience from scratch? For example guest blogging offering a free ebook. Chris Davis I'm trying audible as a sponsor and they suggest that I use "audible trial dot com / my URL." Is that better, the same, or worse than using " my URL dot com / Book" or should I buy a brand new domain altogether? I'm not sure how to do this properly. Is one way better? Thanks Michael! Miriam Ortiz Y Pino Can you tell us what platform and about the delivery of your training products - Social Media Ninja - how the download pages connect to your shopping cart etc. I am getting ready to launch my Streamlined Solutions (audio + workbooks) and want the buying and delivery to be as easy as possible for people. What I have set up now - WP, 1Shopping Cart, with an AWeber form in there somewhere, is a little bit clunky. Thanks!
