Podfest 2022 - Laura Cathcart Robbins and Scott Slaughter

August 25, 2022 Mark Savant

Mark Savant meets fellow podcast hosts, creators, artists, and entrepreneurs at this year’s PodFest Expo in Orlando, Florida. 

In this two-interview episode, Mark sits down with Laura Cathcart Robbins and Scott Slaughter, co-hosts of The Only One in the Room podcast. 

Laura recalls how her experience at a writers retreat back in 2018 inspired her to write an article that went viral. With this traction and a newfound community, she decided to launch their podcast. While experiences may be unique to any individual, they have the potential to connect people from all walks of life by sharing them through different channels.

Scott also shares details on how their podcast generates income through Patreon and how they give back to their loyal audience by providing them with special episodes. With their consistent income streams, coupled with the dedication and interest of their audience, the show continues to grow with this support. 

Action tips:
1. Share stories of your unique experiences to be able to relate with your audience. 
2. Try available streams of income to support your show. 
3. Commit to giving your audience the best experience possible.
