The Entrepreneur Ethos Podcast Market Fit Survey
Summary
A Podcast Market Fit Survey was sent out to 117 people. Most of these people have been on the podcast as a guest. 19 respondents completed the survey for a ~16% response rate, which is above the 10% threshold required for analysis.
26.3% of respondents would be Very Disappointed if they could not listen to the podcast, which is below the 40% required for Podcast Market Fit. This result shows that the podcast has not achieved audience fit and some of the recommendations below should be implemented to improve Podcast Market Fit.
It is worth noting that 8.6 out of 10 respondents would recommend the podcast to a friend along with 63.2% would be Somewhat Disappointed if it went away, which implies that there are fans that like the show but we still need to refine the offering. The biggest such refinement would be to include actionable insights that listeners can use to get better.
