>> >>
>> >> The average episode is downloaded between 1700 and 2100 times in the

>> >> 4000 - 5000 times in the first. These numbers are based on organic

>> >> on our part. We work hard to increase the reach of the podcast and I
>> >> am confident we can dramatically increase these numbers in the
>> >> coming months but this is what the numbers look like today.
>> >>
>> >> For every episode, we produce we also create a 2000 - 2500 word SEO
>> >> optimized article and spend a week promoting the episode across our
>> >> various channels. MapScaping has 31,400 followers on Twitter and
>> >> 54,000 on Facebook. Our email list is just over 2000.
>> >>
>> >> How we might be able to work together
>> >>
>> >> Each podcast episode and accompanying article costs $500 USD to
>> >> produce and promote.
>> >>
>> >> So my pitch to you is this:
>> >>
>> >> *
>> >>
>> >> We split the cost, $250 each. OSGeo helps me find a qualified guest

>> >> the podcast episode.
>> >> *

>> >> OSGeo helps promote the podcast episode to their audience/list

>> >> If this is something that you might want to be involved with I would

>> >>
>> >> Hope you are all safe and well. This is my first time posting to the
