Listeners choose a bundle of podcasts to support for US$4 a month.
The money is split equally between the listener's top four podcasts, less 10% fee to Lenny.fm.
We'll let you know when support from listeners starts accumulating.
- Mention Lenny.fm on your podcast (script help here)
- Use the logo kit for your website and social channels.
- No new app for the audience, and no extra content to create.
Aaaand, say thanks to supporters in your own way that they would appreciate!
We put every bit of experience (podcast creators and developers) we could into crafting the details necessary to make Lenny.fm work for your and your audience.
Listener Feedback
Podcast Creator Feedback
From Mark, who makes Climactic
I absolutely love it! One a personal psychology level, I felt ever so uncomfortable asking for support for myself.
This though... it'd be so easy to plug this consistently and enthusiastically. I could talk about my own top 4, I coud talk about someone else's, I can immediately think of a bunch of ways to talk about it.
And it doesn't force me to run a Patreon/Discord et al.
Make the most of it!
We designed Lenny.fm to be easy if you‘re half interested or all in.
Research shows that between 1 and 10% of your audience is open to supporting shows they enjoy.
In some research up to 23% of Gen Z podcast listeners were into it.
