Episode 173: Building an Audience of SUPERFANS (with Tom Woods)
Today's guest is Tom Woods, who has successfully built a digital brand with a massive following. One of the key factors contributing to his success is his fearless expression of opinions, even when they are divisive. People's reactions to him tend to fall into two extremes: they either adore him or strongly disagree with him.
Tom Woods is widely known as the host of the immensely popular podcast, the Tom Woods Show. Additionally, he has achieved the distinction of being a New York Times bestselling author with 12 books under his belt. Notable works include the Politically Incorrect Guide to American History and Meltdown.
Tom's educational background is equally impressive, having earned a bachelor's degree in history from Harvard University, followed by a PhD from Columbia University. These academic accomplishments further enhance his credibility and expertise in his field.
But today, I’m talking to him about how he’s built such a raving fan base, the marketing strategies he’s used to monetize that platform, and his view on the role of the entrepreneur in the economy.
