The blog post you are reading right now was an inspiration for, as well as was a provider of excerpts, used in the latest episode at the time of this writing of Celebify.com (video mini podcast) on the topic of the “Magic of Thought” to grow your own audience. You see, Yianni Stamas is both the creator of the website you are reading this article in right now as well as is the producer of Celebfy. Two more sites Yianni developed and are also integrated into the prior mentioned episode are “U.S. in Need” and “The Arts and Media”.
Harness that Magic of Thought and the Use of Campaigns
Think about campaigns. In other words, have an overall focus regarding each phase of your undertaking to grow your own audience. What is happening in your world and what are aspects of it that together make a theme. You want to make it easy for people to grasp what you are trying to express overall and therefore can quickly make a choice as to whether to give their time to what you are presenting to them.
How to Grow Your Own Audience like Cable TV Show Video Diary NYC Did
Creating a successful show and growing an audience can be an exciting yet challenging thing to do. The cable TV show “Video Diary NYC” which ran for approximately a decade on a weekly basis for half an hour per episode, gives an example of how pursuing what you are interested in can lead to other likeminded individuals being drawn to your mission. Yianni Stamas’ Video Diary NYC from the very beginning was a passion project on his part.
People are Interested in People
Yianni was truly curious about what would happen if he put the behind the scenes of his life on television, having just completed a creative project that was aligned with that theme. And this could have worked for anyone. Because people are interested in people, especially if there is something in what someone is doing that they can relate to or are fascinated by. And this inevitably leads to a pathway for you to grow your own audience.
Partner with Others Who are Doing What You Do
Find others who are doing what you are doing and share audiences in a win-win scenario, being able to grow your own audience while our contemporaries do too. One of the ways Yianni Stamas did this, especially during the first five years of the ten-year run approximately of Video Diary NYC was to find other local cable programs and create events where all the various program producers would film content of each other and broadcast their footage in their time slot.
Be a Part of What is Current
Remaining relevant is important to being able to grow your own audience because if what you are doing is connected to what people are already currently interested in, it makes it possible to gain their interest in your content because of your own personal take on what they want information on.
Process Meets Content
Always be growing and evolving and be not afraid to change how you approach what you do when you grow your own audience. Remember that time can change interest in what you offer, and you need to keep in mind that process has much to do what your content ultimately is.
Keep it Fresh and Interesting to Yourself
So, it is critical to constantly be exploring new ways of generating your content and in turn have it been a part of why people are drawn to what you do become a part of your ongoing audience growth. Method can be a key to what intersects with interest. In short, keep yourself interested and others will find what you do interesting as well.
Implement Strategies
By implementing these strategies, you can cultivate a loyal audience and grow your show much like “Video Diary NYC” did. Remember, building an audience takes time and persistence, but with dedication and the right approach, success is within reach.
Clarity About What You Offer
Ultimately if you want to grow your own audience for whatever you offer whether it be a cable television program or something out, you need to be very clear about what it is that you offer that others are not and remind those in your audience of this. Differentiating is key and to be your unique self now.
