What’s CPM? CPM (“cost per mille”) is how much advertisers pay for every 1,000 downloads. Rates vary—most shows see $18–$50 CPM, but only top podcasts make life-changing income this way.

If your revenue isn’t matching your effort, you’re not alone. Most podcasters hit a ceiling with ads. But a smarter, more scalable path is opening up—thanks to AI and smarter monetization strategies.

The Real Reason Podcasters Struggle to Monetize

The old playbook is broken. Unless you’re pulling huge download numbers, ad revenue won’t move the needle. Hope marketing doesn’t work—what you need is leverage.
That’s where AI and automated content systems come in.

  • Repurpose every episode into blog posts and social content (automatically)
  • Grow your list and email funnels to sell your own products or affiliate offers
  • Turn episode topics into checklists, workbooks, or courses—ready to sell
  • Automate repetitive marketing tasks, so you can focus on your message
You don’t need more episodes. You need a system that turns your content into income—on autopilot.
