<p>What if monetising a podcast was simpler than the usual laundry list of tactics suggests? <strong><a href="https://alitu.com/creator/content-creation/podcast-monetization-methods/" target="_blank">A new model called the Three As</a></strong> breaks earning potential into three clear paths: </p><ul><li>Audience, which includes supporter perks and light ads</li><li>Authority, which covers coaching, courses, and specialist services</li><li>Assets, which includes books, products, and affiliate income</li></ul><p></p><p>The aim is to choose the route that fits your show’s size and purpose rather than copy the strategies used by giants.</p><p>Elsewhere, <strong><a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/business-of-podcasting/video-creating-different-types-of-podcasting/" target="_blank">recent Independent Podcaster survey results show creators splitting into two broad groups</a></strong>. Audio-first shows follow flexible production routines, while video-led podcasts often feel the pressure of weekly uploads from platforms like YouTube. These differences show up in formats, production time, and a growing worry that video’s rise could narrow the types of stories podcasters feel able to make.</p><p>There is also a look at <strong><a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/training-development/podcast-events/" target="_blank">the event season ahead</a></strong> and how to get more from it. The focus is on going in with clear intentions, using the space to meet potential guests, and treating each venue as a chance to make connections rather than sit through panels all day.</p><p>The episode ends with practical studio advice. Creating depth behind you, shaping your light, and mixing fixed and angled shots can all lift your visuals without expensive gear. A bit of planning and a thoughtful layout often matter more than the camera you use.</p><p>Podcraft is brought to you by <strong><a href="https://alitu.com/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcraft&utm_campaign=shownotes" target="_blank">Alitu</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://www.thepodcasthost.com/podcraft-podcast/" target="_blank">The Podcast Host</a></strong></p>
