How Much Does A Podcast With 1,000 Listeners Make? (The Real Number)

A podcast with a thousand listeners makes about a hundred and forty-four dollars a month.I checked that properly.So then I say the second thing, which is the bit that makes people go quiet. You don't want a hundred and forty-four dollars a month. You want one thousand four hundred and forty-four. And the way you get there is by not doing ads.In this episode:— Why the hundred and forty-four dollar figure is right, and why that's the problem— The only lever CPM gives you, and where it leads— The arithmetic that made me laugh— What renting your mid-roll actually costs you— My affiliate disclosure, said out loud, because this episode demands it— One thing to do this week that takes sixty seconds of 'tape'Tools I use and get paid to mention.I record on Boomcaster, edit in Descript most weeks, and Captivate hosts this show.Affiliate links below — I earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
