Hello Podcasters,
Is there a reason why podcasters do not use Linktree or Flowpage to create mobile optimised landing pages for sponsors and links?
Is there some feature or workflow gap that is preventing this?
I have been toying around with an idea for a "shownotes" page. While it definitely appeals to me as a podcast consumer and can see the appeal for the advertisers, I am not so sure about podcasters.
I’m working on a product that gets at this issue. I think there is a big problem with links and podcasts which opens up a lot of possibilities for advertising/influence.
I like the idea too. Any update of your product?
Hey Monteka, I have launched the product I've been working on. JumpLink. Would love your feedback and thoughts on it. Check it out at https://jump.link
Coming soon! I'll ping you back when we launch.
@mpeloquin awesome! Is the product going to be advertiser first or creator first? Interested to learn about your insights, if you don't mind sharing :)
It’s going to be creator first. I think podcasters need to derive value from the tool and then advertisers will find their place. In some ways the creator needs more ways to drive results for their advertisers. Most advertisers see podcasts as a brand awareness medium but the traffic driven to an advertiser by podcasters is high-value traffic. I think most people are seeing this issue as it relates to contextual advertising in podcasts. But in my opinion the current ad units are really annoying in podcasts as well as easily skipped. So the advertiser doesn’t have a good sense of results and the podcaster is annoying their audience. Sorta lose-lose if you ask me.
I’ll have much more to share on this when I open up beta sign ups for podcasters this month!
Do you have a podcast? Just a listener?
Thanks for sharing.
I am considering starting one but I am not sure anymore. I need to spend some more time thinking about why I want to start it.
Otherwise someone trying to indiehack and listening to a ton of podcasts :)
Totally get it! It’s a fun medium.
Hey, my friend. Maybe a fan engagement platform can be a good solution for podcasters, like skillcore.io -- where you can turn visitors into fans.
