No matter where I go or what I'm doing it's nice to know I can reach out and 'Hear' someone!
I've subscribed to a number of online marketing membership sites in the past and have eventually left them. For the most part you can find what you want to know here and on other forums at no cost.
What I do enjoy is being able to 'Double-Click' and listen to my favorite radio talkshow host virtually anywhere. Why is this??? Why pay to listen to sportshow, political personality, or even a particular radio station and not subscribe to a marketing web site???
It's because the membership sites are either not updated with new stuff on an ongoing basis, or they are 'updated' with information commonly found elsewhere. Personalities and opinions aside, anyone can make money online without assistance from others.
But radio talkshow hosts, they are new and cutting edge each and every day! Two of my favorites are
The Jim Rome Show and
The Rush Limbaugh Show, among others.
For free radio,
ESPN Radio also has a fair number of excellent talk shows and I will still listen to Tom Collins (DJ and friend of mine) at
X-Rock in the Northern Black Hills of South Dakota on occasion!
With current trends always leaning towards the cutting edge and marketers looking to distance themselves from the 'pack'... A regular weekly, monthly or even daily radio show could be what the doctor ordered for you.
I am looking into a few resources for just this type of thing for another niche market.
Imagine having 1,000+ listeners subscribing as little as $5.00 per month, or up to $100's per month, to listen to you ramble on about a particular interest.
Investment and Stocks. There are monthly newsletters people pay thousands of dollars to in order to subscribe.
A Hunting/Fishing Show in your locale.
A Shopping Show or Consumer Report type of show.
There are already syndicated radio shows on home repair, credit repair, financial advice, car repair and the list goes on and on.
Late at night while driving I will sometimes listen to a over-the-road trucker call-in show!
If someone would pay 10GR to subscribe to a 8-12 page hardcopy newsletter on investing, might they spend $50 a month to listen to the same info over the Internet???
I spend a few greenbacks to listen to certain Jock DJ's now. In Kansas I used to listen religiously to certain fishing shows discussing baits, lakes, locales, where to eat and stay.
In Wyoming elk hunting is a huge business where guys from 'back east' pay a fortune to come out on guided hunts. One outfitter I know routinely earns $7,500 just for a mule deer hunt. Kill or no kill! Wouldn't a rich dude like that pay a few bucks to listen to a hunting show on out west tactics???
More money is spent on hobbies and interests than on anything else. A few dollars a month multiplied by thousands equal a potentially nice gig.
Take a quick peek here to see the costs of doing such a show. Add in a domain name and host and you have a 'Self-Syndicated' show!
