THE EVOLUTIONS BIG SAVINGS SALE ENDS TONIGHT! REGISTER BY MIDNIGHT BEFORE PRICES GO UP!
Happy Thursday, PM Family, can you feel the excitement?
We’ve got less than a week until the festivities kick off, and we could not be more excited! The Podcast Movement team hits the road for Los Angeles this weekend, and many more from the podcasting world will be joining us a few days later.
As the famous hair metal band, Europe, would say:
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown (final countdown)
(Oh)
Oh
Let’s do this.
When we first came up with the Evolutions concept, we wanted it to be like a class reunion mixed with continuing education for podcasters and industry folks – but cooler. You'd come back every year, and each time, you'd dive into what's new and exciting in the world of podcasting. New tools, the latest tech, fresh research – you name it, ensuring no two years feel the same. And of course, great company, some parties and good times along the way.
We're excited to keep this vibe going into 2024. With more than 125 sessions lined up, we've got something for everyone. Whether you're just starting out, you've been in the game for years, or you're somewhere in the middle, there's plenty to get everyone excited too. Next week, the content is broken down into five tracks, so you can pick what’s right for you this year at Evolutions.
Sessions on this track are all about the art of the podcast. If it’s about the craft of making magic for your listener’s ears, it is being taught on this stage. Check out all the Create sessions. This track requires a Podcaster or Industry badge to attend.
Sessions on this track focus on helping podcasters grow their show. From social media to community building to PR, we’ll get you thinking outside the box on this stage. Check out all the Grow sessions. This track requires a Podcaster or Industry badge to attend.
Sessions on this track are all about making money from your show or shows. This can be through traditional ads, crowdfunding, and all kinds of outside-the-box thinking and subjected deep-dives. Check out all the Profit sessions. This track requires a Podcaster or Industry badge to attend.
Sessions on this track are geared towards the business side of the podcast industry. While everyone can benefit from this content, the target audience are those who work “behind the scenes” in podcasting. Check out all the Industry sessions. This track requires an Industry badge to attend.
Sessions on this track are, as you can imagined, focused on the fundamental skills, knowledge, and topics that make up the foundation that everyone in podcasting need. While many of these sessions would be considered beginner level, everyone in attendance can benefit from participating in some or all of these sessions. Check out all the Fundamentals sessions. This track is open to all badges.
And before we close out talking about the content, check out just a few of the newest sessions and speakers just added:
Cultivating a New Class of Content Creators w/ Spotify NextGen, featuring Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones of The New York Times Magazine, Rachel McCain of Howard University, and Kristin Jarrett & Tristan O'Donnell from Spotify.
The Humor and the Heavy: How to Explore Serious Subjects with Finesse and Empathy (and Grow Your Show at the Same Time), featuring Miles Gray of The Daily Zeitgeist, and Ben Bowlin, Matt Frederick & Noel Brown of Stuff They Don’t Want You to Know.
And so much more! Check out all the speakers and the full schedule so you can choose your own adventure wisely!
