🎉 A Twitter Space Discussion - 10K Downloads or $500/Month: A Lesson In Podcast Monetization

Date: Friday February 10th, 2023 at 6 PM Eastern

Location: Twitter Spaces

Twitter: @BlkPodAssoc

This week Arielle Nissenblatt posed a question via Twitter asking podcasters would they rather 10,000 downloads or $500 a month to invest.

Arielle Nissenblatt (sounds like ‘this & that’)🎧 @arithisandthat

Would you rather have 10,000 downloads per podcast episode or $500 to invest in your podcast every month for a year?

This opened up a great conversation between the Downloaders, and the Investors. We retweeted and got some insight from our own BPA members and followers.

Michelle Jackson @MichLovesMoney

@RobbDunewood @BlkPodAssoc My answer to that thread:

Michelle Jackson @MichLovesMoney

@arithisandthat Bespoke brand partnerships at 10,000 downloads a podcast=lucrative. People have no idea🥲

ROBB DUNEWOOD 🎙️ Knows Something About Podcasting @RobbDunewood

@MichLovesMoney @BlkPodAssoc Michelle, you are right. People have no idea. On that post, everyone understood the value of $500 per month. Few understood the leverage that 10,000 downloads per episode presents. I, personally, will be creating more content on podcast monetization. People should know.

And Robb is right, people should know.

So we decided to have a discussion on Twitter Spaces with our BPA member & BlkPodNews Contributing Writer, Robb Dunewood, Michelle Johnson of

Podcasters Getting Paid

, Angela Hollowell of Honey & Hustle, and Corey Gumbs, founder of The Black Podcasters Association about this very topic.

Make sure you tune-in and join us this Friday at 6PM EST on Twitter Spaces
