Zachary Babcock - From Prison To Profitable Podcaster
Zachary Babcock is definitely an interesting dude, and he’s got a supercharged, truth bomb podcast called Underdog Empowerment. He’s got a crazy history which you’ll hear about, where he had an addictive personality in his younger years which landed him in trouble, then took that personality and channeled it into a good thing for his business. We also dive into how he has grown his podcast show super fast and talk about how he’s mapped out 5-6 systems, making a killing with getting rankings, subscribers, and guests onto his shows. You’ll also get the backstory as well as some mindset stuff as to what it's like to go from being in prison to being a respected entrepreneur.
This episode is not only fascinating, it’s very tactical as well. He’s a lot of fun to talk to, and he’s definitely an open book and shares the various scripts he uses when he reaches out to these people. After you’ve listened, be sure to check out the shows we did with Tyrone Shum and Joe Sanok for more insight and tactics to get your own podcast on an accelerated track.
