Having people on of the quality of Chris Knox is a plus for the radio show, for sure.
I am really glad he's agreed to come back in a relatively short period of time.
I suggest that growth of our radio audience will be such that he'll have an audience two or three times larger than the one last night.
Agreed!
And there are two audiences we need to grow:
- Those new to the program.
- Those already IN the program.
I have tried to push the radio show on other forums using the guest's name power + ours to draw people into coming. The night of the JPFO I saw a handful of people I know were there from promotion, BUT it was no more than that. This week I did not do anything for Chris and the numbers in the Chat room were low. Thus lessons learned (Never let up!)
There has to be a way to get more unknowns to the radio show as well. We advertise it side by side with normal advertising here in Indiana, but there needs to be more. Is there a forum for amateur or small business radio groups? Is the national broadcast gatherings useful to us in any way? I dunno.
But, then funny thing is the lack of our own people coming to the Radio show. I try to come every week now and I find it VERY useful as a way to keep anchored in the program. Think of it as a church service, or AA meeting, or what have you, but it functions to keep my mind on the prize and out of the world of distractions. As a SB it also works on keeping me looking at the big game and not just focussed on the next shoot.
I think 8-10 users in the chat room is nothing for Chris. And double is still way too low. I want to see at least 50+ next time. So my preference, on this item is to see us double each month. 8-16-32-64. He comes back in 3 months, we have 64 users in the chat room. Period.
And that should not be hard to do. Just gotta get there!
