If you’re an indie podcaster, you’ve probably wondered, “Can I actually make a living doing this?” The answer is yes—with the right approach to ad revenue and direct brand pitches. I’m Danielle, Creator and Host of Sex Ed with DB. In this two-part workshop, I’ll show you how I built a six-figure indie podcast by mastering the art of sponsorships with my proven ad deck—and how you can do it too!

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • Closing Sponsorships Made Simple: Learn insider tips for reaching out to brands, pricing your ad slots (on your podcast, social media, newsletter and more), and sealing the deal like a pro.
  • Hands-On Ad Deck Creation: Use my proven ad deck template to craft your own compelling sponsorship pitch for your unique podcast.
  • Expert + Peer-to-Peer Feedback: Collaborate in small groups to refine your ad deck with input from fellow podcasters and gain personalized feedback directly from me to ensure your pitch is polished and professional.

By the end of this workshop, you’ll leave with a polished ad deck, actionable feedback, and the confidence to close sponsorships and start making a living from your podcast.

Testimonials

I loved how much of an open book Danielle was with her personal experience on the subject she was teaching. The specific figures, strategies and stories she had were incredibly eye opening and well worth the price of admission.

It was an excellent class. Danielle is a fantastic presenter who is both gracious with her time & knowledge and has a genuine desire to see others do well in the Independent Podcasting universe.
