Episode Eight features Bill Nowicki, the founder of LocalPodcastNetworks.co discussing the merits of local podcasting and how you can benefit from it as well!
My Key Takeaways:
Some of my key takeaways from my conversation with Bill are:
- Local Podcasts can benefit an underserved community.
- You can establish a really deep connection with someone by interviewing them.
- Marietta Stories, Bill's local podcast dedicated to the Marietta, GA area has opened up all kinds of opportunities that Bill never anticipated as well as helped him acclimate to the town and become a 'regular'.
- Marietta Stories has served as a lead magnet for Bill's videography business, Nowicki Media.
- Bill advised making a podcast like his into 'seasons' to avoid burnout.
- Bill's process is a bit unusual in that he typically does his interviews in person with one microphone between them as opposed to over the internet.
- Bill believes that we are wired for stories. He said that when you hear someone's story it helps explain the way they act and interact in the world.
- Bill views his interviews as a special gift to the interviewee and does his best to capture them respectfully.
