Prize Media Company
Hosted by Prize Company
A solo-host show where a podcast strategist breaks down the marketing and growth systems behind successful podcasts.
This is a meta-podcast about the business of podcasting. In each episode, host Robin Mann puts on his strategist hat to dissect the marketing and distribution systems of other shows. Using screen recordings and data-driven analysis, he breaks down everything from pre-launch social media teasers and A/B tested thumbnails to complex content repurposing and DM automation funnels. The show treats other podcasts as case studies, revealing the machinery that drives their growth.
“Unlike most shows in the space, it doesn't interview creators about their journey. Instead, it analyzes their work from a distance, focusing exclusively on the strategic systems and promotional mechanics they use to attract and convert audiences.”
