How to Monetize a Podcast Without a Big Audience

Most shows take years to grow big enough to attract real advertiser dollars, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't think about monetization sooner. Even if your audience is still limited, your expertise and content still have value. Hear Sergei Revzin (Venture Associate at the Entrepreneurial Institute) & Vadim Revzin (Founder of School16), co-hosts of The Mentors podcast, talk about how they leveraged their small but growing show to generate side income, and create big professional opportunities in just their first year.

During this session, we will cover:

1) How to leverage your show to get large press opportunities.
2) How to get paid for live events.
3) How to make residual income from your content.
