    I’ll be speaking January 2026 at the 12th annual Podfest Expo in Orlando as part of the Monetization track. I know you’re busy, and I know you want actionable advice now. So, I created this limited-edition audio series to give you tips and advice before we even meet in Florida.

    If you have found this podcast, you are likely a podcaster, a creator, or a broadcaster looking for the Holy Grail: how to actually make money from your show..

    Specifically, you want to know how to attract high-quality sponsors who actually pay.


    We win through differentiation. There are many ways to be different; being a radio broadcaster is one and is the focus of this limited series podcast.

    Important items in this limited podcast series:

    • The Competition for download numbers

    • The authority-shift from podcaster to radio host and how this transforms the psychology of sponsors

    • Getting your show on the air: connecting with program directors, station owners, and finding stations in your markets

    • How digital ads provide credible leverage to attract sponsors

    • A few of the quirks of producing episodes for radio


    I’ll have resources available on my website following my talk at the Podfest Expo in Orlando. Follow this link: https://dscottsmith.com/podfest2026


    What is PodFest? Here’s a quote right from their website:

    “Simply put, PODFEST EXPO is the longest-running annual, in-person podcasting conference in the world. Returning in 2026 for an unprecedented 12th consecutive year, PODFEST has been on a wild ride of unbridled growth from its humble beginnings in 2015 to now.”
