In this episode…

Popcorn is a settled food, right? There isn’t anything new to bring to the genre, is there? Wrong! Elan Amir and his wife have something new for popcorn lovers, and they are set to take it to the world. The product is inspired by popcorn that Elan’s wife would eat in India during her Yoga training. Their recipe has five grams of protein per serving and is organic, gluten-free, vegan, non-GMO, and soon to be kosher certified.

So how did that translate into PodiPop? The idea for the company did not happen right away, but after watching an episode of Shark Tank where a woman found investors for an oatmeal pop, the wheels were set in motion. More inspiration was found in the growing popcorn industry at large, which Elan says will almost double by 2023.

Rise25’s mission is to connect you with your best referral partners and customers.

We connect you with strategic partnerships through our done for you podcast solution which is the best thing I have done for my business.

Our Done for you Podcast service – We help your company completely run and launch your own podcast and make sure you get ROI from it.

We distribute your show across more than 11 different channels (spotify, google play, itunes, and many more) including a dedicated blog post and social media. You simply show up and talk and we do everything else. Our team has been working with podcasters since 2009. I personally credit podcasting as the single best thing I have done for my business and my life. It has allowed me to connect with the founders/ceo’s of P90xAtariEinstein BagelsMattelRx Bars, and many more. Besides making best friends and finding my business partner, podcasting has led to relationships with countless customers and referral partners.

The most important piece that most are missing is the right strategy and we make sure our clients get ROI so it becomes one of the most valuable parts of your strategic partnerships.

Since this requires a lot of humans (we have operations, developers, writers, audio editors, video editors) to do the work we have limited bandwidth and only want to work with the right company. If using a podcast for strategic partnerships, content marketing, and increasing clients and referrals sounds interesting to you go to www.Rise25.com and contact us or email support (at) rise25.com.

If your company wants to attract and connect with your highest level customers and referral partners then you can learn more and contact us to find out if your company qualifies at Rise25.com.
