- Marketing
Podcasting is perhaps the easiest way to communicate your knowledge to the world. Most business owners find it easier to talk than to write - at least on a consistent basis!
In this conversation, Rob Drummond and podcasting expert James Marriott explore the concept of 'purposeful podcasting'. If your work makes a real difference to the people you serve, then you'll want to listen to this episode!
Takeaways Having a platform, such as a podcast, is essential for communicating expertise and building trust. Purposeful podcasting involves creating podcasts with a clear goal and target audience in mind. Strategy and planning are crucial in podcasting to ensure effective communication and engagement. Audio quality plays a significant role in capturing and maintaining listeners' attention. Video podcasting requires additional considerations and resources, and may not be suitable for all podcasters. Voice and audio communication have a unique power to resonate with and engage listeners. Capturing and maintaining attention in a crowded media landscape is a challenge that requires compelling content and effective promotion. Creating concise content can help win in a marketplace by delivering the same message in a shorter time. Applying the RFM principle (Recency, Frequency, Money) to podcasting can help provide value to specific listeners and increase engagement. Releasing multiple episodes at the beginning of a podcast launch can help engage listeners and build trust. Measuring podcast success should focus on the right audience and specific goals, rather than just the number of listeners. Building a unique equation for success involves identifying the right audience, setting meaningful KPIs, and working towards specific outcomes. Inviting guests on a podcast can deepen relationships and provide networking opportunities.
