Sharing major advances in podcast monetization and IP exploitation from industry innovators at yesterday were these industry leaders - and here were our top takeaways from each:

Kathy Doyle - CurtCo Media
- Think about potential monetization extensions beyond your podcast (Great example: Sporkful invented Cascatelli pasta)
- Learning can bring in revenue
- Research who might be interested in licensing your content (e.g. waiting rooms and airlines)

Sarah van Mosel -
- Take the spirit of a podcast and turn into something else (e.g. a game)

Jeff Weiner - and
- For podcast tours: VIP tickets work (most people want to meet the talent), the cost of having merch may outweigh the opportunity to make revenue, and the last minute ticket buyer is a real thing

Chris Denson - Independent
- Example of expanding IP into other revenue streams: A mixed tape based on a book that sold really well

Kerri Kolen -
- Often the “next thing” is a part of the “original thing”

This panel offered many actionable steps for creating a deeper connection with listeners and creating new forms of revenue!
