Making Your Podcast Binge-Worthy
Something to think about: What are you offering your audience that they should spend their time-consuming? Not just one but several episodes. That statement is a little scary.
1. It has to be GOOD, actually very good.
2. Create click-attracting titles. I use a tool called Headline Studio
3. Get your audience asking, What Happens Next??
4. Give them multiple points of insight.
5. Make it EASY to Binge (by making it easy to subscribe/follow). See this plugin
6. Add an element of Fear of Missing Out (FOMO).
7. Get Your Best Content In Front of Your Audience
8. Teasing Your Audience
9. Have a Show that Walks Through a Process
Make your content relevant. Be YOURSELF.

How Danny ended up on a billboard in Time's Square
How he got to interview Keanu Reeves
How his persistence lead to scoring a large guest (Reggie Fils-Aime).
His conversational interviews based on his curiosity lead to six news outlets promoting his interview.
Reggie insisted Danny interview him at a large event as part of the opening keynote.
Danny once had access to a new Microsoft product MONTHS before anyone else. Instead of enjoying the new item, he allowed one of his listeners to enjoy it and the video went viral.
