#TLDL - Too Long Didn't Listen

One of the MOST important things to do when creating your podcast is to outline it's identity. In today's lesson we'll show you how to create your Podcast Identity Pillars, #PIP.
WHO: Who is your show for? (audience)
WHERE: Where are you taking them? (result)
WHAT: What will you talk about? (theme)
WHY: Why should they listen? (unique)
You'll sometimes hear me refer to the Podcast Identity Pillars (#PIP) as the 4W's, our Podcast Identity Pillars are heavily influenced by the 4W's method created originally by Zachary Babcock.
Full credit goes to Zach for creating such an awesome system which I know you guys are going to get a TON of value out of inside this program.

1:15:07 -----Q&A Starts-----
1:15-1:17 Skip due to technical problems
1:18:22 I don’t know who my ideal perfect customer is. I’ve never found one, I feel like I need to guess who they are and are likely to be, in as much detail as possible, but I also think I may end up being wrong.
1:26:53 Where can we find your Voxer?
1:26:57 Do your audience & guests have to be the same person?
1:30:50 For discussions sake and also because I can see me having to sell the concept of sharing that vulnerability to potential guests. If I want to attract business owners to share their stories, but they are unfamiliar with what members of the click funnels community have learnt about sharing their vulnerability, how do you sell them on the idea that sharing a vulnerability is a good idea?
1:38:04 If I’m talking to people who are already using funnels, I’m trying to figure out the monetization and how it would work, as I like to talk about the funnel strategy. The people that I’m interviewing will already be using these strategies. My listeners will want to take advantage of the strategies that we are talking about. As they might already be in a position where they have what I’m trying to sell.
1:43:43 Where can we find the homework items?
1:44:50 When trying to figure out my ideal client, it’s hard to figure out their passion.
