Example

Below is an example of the template filled out for a new podcast series called Pressure Cast.

Vision

Pressure Cast is a niche podcast dedicated creating value in the discovery of:

• Strategy for business from a philosophical outlook, to provide mental models and frameworks
• Technology understood from it’s core use and meaning in the grander marketplace
• Entrepreneurial stories and tactical methods for business

Antivision

Pressure Cast is a podcast which delivers basic entertainment value in a wide ranging / changing landscape of social taste and trends of the world (i.e. drop shipping, Kindle book sales, et cetera). It naively and ignorantly explores startups and entrepreneurship.

Purpose

Pressure Cast serves as a vehicle for:

1. Personal Audience Development
2. Research and Investigation to develop my own ideas about business
3. Network Expansion

Why do I want these things?

1. I have a natural talent for performance and desire for an audience to discuss and discourse with.

• Pluses: gives me additional eyeballs and allows formation of new projects audience
• Minuses: Requires exposure and increased risk criticism

2. In alignment with my curiosity, allowing continual exploration

• Pluses: Allows me to identify underlying drivers and opportunities
• Minuses: Fills me with excessive noise and overwhelm (in the interest of distilling for others)

3. Caters to my extraversion and skill at outreach

• Pluses: Builds potential clients, investors, customers, investments
• Minuses: There is some reputation risk and/or decreasing authenticity based on guests.
