Ep 17 | Equity Mates: How Bryce and Ren Built One of Australia’s Biggest Podcast Brands
In this episode, Bryce and Ren from Equity Mates share their incredible 8-year journey from recording on a balcony with one microphone to building Australia's #1 finance podcast reaching 600,000 people monthly.
We dive deep into how they went from just 1,000 downloads in their first year to half a million monthly listeners across all platforms. The guys open up about the pivotal $100K investment decision that allowed them to quit their corporate jobs at Woolworths and Coles, and how COVID unexpectedly tripled their audience overnight when everyone was stuck at home with government handouts and a booming stock market.
