Hi EarBudddies,EarBuds founder, Arielle, here!  This past week I went to Podcast Movement

 in Philadelphia. I’m excited to share everything I learned with y'all.While there, I met with Jordan from Patreon, who suggested some changes to my Patreon page. There are now three levels of giving available: 

  •  If you support EarBuds at $2/month, your logo goes on our website and we'll link to your podcast.

  •  At $5/month, you get the same as at $2 plus we'll tweet about your episodes when they're released.   

  • At $10/month, you get all that and a shoutout in our newsletter!

  • If you're not a podcaster, but you still want to support, reply to this email and we'll work something out.

We REALLY appreciate the love you give us each week. If you're a fan of this project, please consider supporting it. Make sure to let me know how I can support you and your projects!THANK YOU,Arielle 

 

Hey Podcast Folks,Kevin from Discover Pods here. Wanted to let you know we just opened the survey for the 2018 Podcast Trends Report - an annualized report that aims to quantify the trends, challenges, and thoughts from podcasters and podcast fans. The 2017 Report found (analysis and full report here):

  • 55.7% of respondents spend more time listening to podcasts than watching TV

  • 66.8% of people listen to more than 7 hours of podcasts each week

Anyways, here's the survey link to the 2018 report and I'd appreciate anything y'all 

could do to help amplify the awareness through your respective channels.
