Greetings PM Family,
One of our favorite things to do with the community members is to hang out and spend time with each other! Since 2014 we've been hosting in-person and virtual meetups for podcasters from across the world. Through these networking-style get-togethers, we've made many personal friendships and deep business connections, maybe even with you!
Bianca Miller-Cole shares some helpful insights on why networking is important in this article. Here are a few of the main points she discusses:
- They're an avenue to exchange ideas
- They help make you noticeable
- They're an avenue for newer opportunities
- They help grow your self-confidence
- They lead to developing long-lasting relationships
This week we share the videos with you of some of the networking events from PM Virtual (specifically two that also featured some great conversations and education). We also have news about our upcoming Holiday Virtual Meetup this December!
PM Virtual Networking Sessions
We had many popular and successful networking events at the recent PM Virtual conference using the Shindig platform. We encourage you to check them out if you haven't already.
This week we want you to have free access to see what a sample of these experiences was like for yourself.

Shindig was proud to enable important social events at Podcast Movement Virtual 2020, including the Welcome Reception, Closing Party, and several networking sessions.
Having experienced Shindig’s unique features yourself, you might already be thinking: how can I use this powerful tech to record live podcast sessions with audience participation that I can then harvest to create a more engaging show?
Or you might be thinking about podcast fan events to discuss (and draw attention) to the latest episode.
If you're interested in exploring the use of Shindig in conjunction with your podcast, reach out to them at julian@shindigevents.com. The first 10 qualified Podcast Movement attendees will be eligible for a free Shindig holiday party for their podcast fans on us.
