Hello and welcome to the Chester Zoo Conservation Changemakers’ Toolkit! My name is Jack Baker and in this episode, I am going to be sharing my journey in nature podcasting! We will chat about where my idea came from, how I grew my audience and some of the lessons I have learned along the way!

Some core take aways include…

• Don’t let anyone tell you, you can’t do it!
• Apply for speaking opportunities and awards!
• Use it to build your profile/brand!
• Take breaks!
• Be your authentic self!

Hello and welcome to the Chester Zoo Conservation Changemakers' Toolkit! In this episode we are talking about how to get your show heard! We will think about who it is for, how you create cover art, and how you can get your show in front of the right audiences!

First, we think about who would you distribute the show to...

• Is this for your local community?
• Is it only for people who subscribe to your blog/mailing list?
• Is this for everyone?

Then, we will discuss how you would you advertise your show. Talk about the importance of social media, attending events and using your connections.

Finally, we will think about cover art: what would it look like, what will make it unique, how will you produce it! To create your artwork, try using PowerPoint, Word or Canva!
