How does someone go from "I've never heard of you" to "I'm your hugest fan"? What are the necessary steps that go between those two extremes? Programming the psychological "journey" that your listeners take should be your primary focus...

Listen in as our co-Founders give you the full blueprint for creating a rock-solid business around your artistry that produces life-long fans like clockwork.

In this episode, Circa and Corrin discuss the Permission and Nurturing stages of the listener journey. Getting your listener's "Permission" to speak with them is essential to building a long-term, contactable fan base.
