The Influence Lab

A free place for podcasters and creators to experiment, test what works, and grow the influence behind their show.

Explore practical learning, guided experiments, useful tools, live experiences, and connection with people building alongside you. The Lab is where you strengthen your message, test ideas, and grow the influence behind your show.

Built for Podcasters Who Mean Business

The Influence Lab is a free place for podcasters and creators to put the Five Tenets of Influence into practice. Explore what strengthens your message, test what helps the right people respond, and build momentum around the work you are here to do.

This is more than a community. It is a place to learn, experiment, use practical tools, join live experiences, and connect with other creators building businesses around their message.

Built on The Five Tenets of Influence

Every strategy inside The Influence Lab comes back to five core principles from the book Your Message Is the Business:

  1. Be Seen — Show up where your ideal clients are already looking.

  2. Be Heard — Speak with clarity, authority, and consistency.

  3. Be Easy to Follow — Make it simple for listeners to take the next step with you.

  4. Be the Solution — Position your expertise as the answer to the problem your audience is living with right now.

  5. Be Paid — Build a business model around your message, not just a show.

This is not theory. It is the exact system Donna and James use with every client, and it is what The Influence Lab is built to teach.

How the Five Tenets Turn Listeners into Clients

This short message from founder Donna Kunde shows how the Five Tenets of Influence™ become a practical monetization engine for podcasters. You will see how being seen, being heard, being easy to follow, and being the solution creates the conditions for listeners to become paying clients.

The Influence Lab Is for You If...

  • You have a podcast (or are launching one) and want it to attract clients, not just listeners

  • You have been creating content consistently but have not built a clear system behind it

  • You want to go beyond downloads and into real business results

  • You are serious about building a business around your voice and your expertise

  • You are ready to learn from people who have done it and are doing it alongside you

The Foundation: Your Message Is the Business

Your Message Is the Business expands the work that began with the internationally bestselling The Influencers Formula. It shows podcasters, coaches, and thought leaders how to turn lived experience into a message people want, need, and are already searching for.

The Five Tenets of Influence inside this book serve as the foundation for every program in the Podcast Profit System ecosystem, including The Influence Lab.
