Flowers or tomatoes?

Martin: 00:00:10

Welcome to Presentation Skills Q and A. I am Martin Lindesgoog.

Martin: 00:00:14

Hi Karina.

Carina: 00:00:14

Hi Martin, how are you today?

Martin: 00:00:17

I'm doing okay.

Martin: 00:00:18

Yourself?

Carina: 00:00:19

Yeah. Well, I'm doing okay as well.

Carina: 00:00:22

Interesting to talking to you again.

Carina: 00:00:28

Yes, we have been talking around our podcast show notes and transcripts and how you as a

Carina: 00:00:37

podcaster meet your audience.

Carina: 00:00:40

But today we're going to do the other way.

Carina: 00:00:43

How should the audience meet the podcaster.

Martin: 00:00:47

Here and that now with new podcast apps like Fountain and podverse and others you

Martin: 00:00:57

could be more almost like a co creator and you could cook producer with the podcast.

Martin: 00:01:03

So you insert or you come with feedback in real time when you're listening for example at

Martin: 00:01:09

live identity tag as if we call it or a quick response after episode is published and then

Martin: 00:01:18

you could send a digital telegram with a note of appreciation like a token like it calls

Martin: 00:01:25

satushi's.

Martin: 00:01:27

That's something that's coming that you could

Martin: 00:01:30

get this interaction.

Carina: 00:01:33

Yes, just the interaction that's so important because I can relate to my former

Carina: 00:01:42

occupation when I was a singer.

Carina: 00:01:46

You can go out to the audience and ask them to

Carina: 00:01:50

give you applause but you always get something back from the audience.

Carina: 00:01:59

Sometimes you got flowers and sometimes you got to waiters but you got in a reaction

Carina: 00:02:06

anyway.

Carina: 00:02:07

So how should you do it when you have a

Carina: 00:02:10

podcast?

Martin: 00:02:11

Yeah, that's the so called tricky questions is to ask.

Martin: 00:02:15

Dare to ask and think about ask and then also receive and confirm that you have got feedback

Martin: 00:02:22

and then rinse and repeat and then do it again, ask again.

Martin: 00:02:27

So dare to ask what you want to have support help with.

Martin: 00:02:32

For example, it's this expression time, talent and treasure.

Martin: 00:02:36

So for example, when the time of course the listener, the audience taking their time to

Martin: 00:02:40

listen they could also take a little time to spread the good word.

Martin: 00:02:45

Give a tip, a suggestion to potentially new listener and then to the talent.

Martin: 00:02:51

If you need help in the production or in the workflow or the marketing of a podcast could

Martin: 00:02:56

be one thing and then treasure.

Martin: 00:03:00

So monetary feedback like a financial

Martin: 00:03:03

transaction.

Martin: 00:03:03

And with this new podcast initiative

Martin: 00:03:07

Podcasting 2.0 you could send small amounts micro payments through something called

Martin: 00:03:13

Lightning Network and then it satushes a bit of bitcoin.

Martin: 00:03:18

So there you have it.

Martin: 00:03:19

But then of course you could get feedback via

Martin: 00:03:23

PayPal, via coffee in my case buy me tea to joke many ways of doing it.

Carina: 00:03:32

I heard that the ask is one of the most important things and I've read somewhere

Carina: 00:03:39

that the reason why people do not give anything, they just listen and they don't give

Carina: 00:03:47

anything back is because they haven't been asked.

Carina: 00:03:50

Is it so?

Martin: 00:03:51

Yeah, that's the case often and some organizations non for profit and others they

Martin: 00:04:01

are very good at that.

Carina: 00:04:02

So you shouldn't be afraid of asking.

Martin: 00:04:05

So maybe we should do that also then?

Carina: 00:04:08

Yes, we should.

Carina: 00:04:11

So we do an example.

Martin: 00:04:12

Go ahead.

Martin: 00:04:15

We ask you, the listeners, to take some time

Martin: 00:04:18

and download a new podcast app, for example, Fountain and podverse.

Martin: 00:04:24

And then you could give us a positive feedback loop with a note digital telegram.

Martin: 00:04:32

So that's one example of an ask.

Carina: 00:04:36

Thank you. Martin. Well, I think we should give our Pod a plow because now we have

Carina: 00:04:50

making this Pod together for at least four years now.

Carina: 00:04:55

We are still going on.

Martin: 00:04:57

Yeah, we are.

Martin: 00:04:58

And we're looking forward to your feedback.

Martin: 00:05:02

Thanks.

Carina: 00:05:02

Listener yes, we do.

Carina: 00:05:04

Thank you so much.

Carina: 00:05:06

Well, nice to talk to you about this topic, Martin.

Carina: 00:05:10

We will continue with this.

Martin: 00:05:12

Yeah, we're looking forward to this and get your feedback, as we said.

Martin: 00:05:16

And talk to you soon again.

Martin: 00:05:18

Karina yes.
