How Multi-tasking Can Be a Great Way to Sell Podcasting
Our friends at Sounds Profitable recently posted another insightful article about podcasting, The 25 Hour Day. Author Tom Webster explains that lack of time is a key reason that podcast listeners state as why they're not listening as much as they used to.
In reality, Webster states, podcasts by their very nature don't have to be viewed as taking up time. In fact, you can do all sorts of other things while simultaneously listening. In effect, the allure of podcasts is that they actually give you MORE time in the day.
It's an interesting take.
