Podcast Listener Survey

Who listens, how, and what keeps them subscribed – plus the episode wish list.

5 questions · 1 page · about 2 minutes to answer · fully editable after you start

Podcast analytics count downloads; they cannot tell you who stopped listening at minute twelve or why. This listener survey fills the gap: listening habits and platforms, favourite segments versus skipped ones, episode-length sweet spot, and the topic wish list that becomes next season's planning doc.

The how-found-us answers guide your growth spend, and the would-support question (memberships, live shows, merch) tests monetisation before you build it. Read a few answers on air and watch response rates climb.
