As a podcast business, it can be hard to get a gauge of who is listening. Both Apple and Spotify are pretty tight with the information they share with podcasters.
To help us get a gauge of who is listening and what you want more of (and probably, just as important, what you want less of) we hold an annual community survey.
Our 2024 survey is live now. This is your chance to help shape the future of Equity Mates. So please, help us out and make your voice heard.
As an extra incentive, by completing the survey in full you are automatically entered in the competition to win a $500 prize. So by helping us out, you may also be helping yourself out as well.
