Trevor is the founder of podcastingyou.com, a company that helps real estate investors raise capital by speaking on well-known podcasts. 

Key Takeaways

  • Research other podcasts on ListenNotes.com
  • It usually takes 5 to 10 podcast episodes to get comfortable sharing your story so Trevor recommends starting with smaller podcasts first to work out the kinks before speaking on larger, more well-known podcasts.
  • A handful of podcasts charge for you to speak on the podcast, but most (~99%) do not.
  • Trevor recommends having several deals under your belt first and have invested in real estate for at least 2 to 5 years before speaking on other podcasts to raise capital.
  • Always build your email list so that you can always remain in control of your assets. If all of the data is on a platform like Facebook, you’re always going to be at risk of your account being banned for some terms of service violation and losing access to your data.
  • Most investors speak on 1 to 2 podcast episodes per week over 3 to 5 months. However, it is recommended that you continue doing so as long as you’re in business to prevent your traffic from drying up.
  • Going forward, it is likely that there will be fewer podcasts out there, but of the ones that remain, they will be generating more high quality, consistent content. Other podcasts will fall by the wayside. Generally a podcast needs to have at least 50 episodes to gain solid traction and should be releasing episodes on a consistent schedule of at least weekly.
  • In addition to speaking on podcasts, Clubhouse, TikTok, and Youtube are also great platforms to use to get in front of your audience.
