CHRIS YOUNG

Country artist Chris Young is in town tonight. Probably the 6th time he has been here.

The first time he came was about 10 years ago. He played in the radio station conference room to about 20 people.

The next time here, he played to a small club with a few other artists for a few hundred people.

Then he came to town multiple times opening for other bands.

Tonight, he headlines his own show for about 5,000 people.

Here is a guy that got great exposure on a television singing competition with a big audience. He has put in the consistent and methodical work over time to get where he is today.

Other artists on the singing shows don’t make it, because they haven’t put in the work to create the relationship over time. You can’t create a relationship in 20 weeks of a tv season. It takes years.

DO THE WORK

Do the work. Get rich slowly.

This all starts by creating a structure for your show. You need a focus around a topic that you love. This is your “why”. We discussed this in Episode 233 – Why Are You Creating A Podcast.

You need an idea of what the structure of each show will be. Are you doing interviews or a solo show.

Using that structure, you need to create a show clock that has some consistent elements. This should be your introduction, content and close. Maybe a few features.

Create a clear introduction. Remember, you always have new listeners joining the show. Tell them what you do and why they are here.

Each episode should have a goal. What is it that you are trying to achieve in the episode? Your close should end with a call-to-action.

I have worksheets that help you do all of this. It is part of my new coaching program. It is called
