The Podcast Insider Devenio Podcasts

After you’ve planned, recorded and published your podcast, you now need to find ways to spread the word. And while there are many ways to do this, few are as powerful as email marketing. Building a community and communicating directly with your audience via email is a great way to keep your listeners informed and engaged between episodes. But with thousands of emails filling the inbox, how can you be sure you’re cutting through the noise and reaching the people that matter?

In the first episode of 2020, we sat down with Matthew Smith and Matt Helbig of Really Good Emails, to talk about how to create your very own email marketing or newsletter campaign that will stand out in the inbox and encourage your audience to listen and subscribe. We even run through some real podcast emails and point out exactly what makes them really good! Follow along with the links below!

When it comes to formatting, the interview is the easiest choice for podcasters to make. Its simple format makes it easy to produce over time and it can work for almost any podcast niche. But while the interview has proven to be the most accessible format for podcasters, it's not the only option we have at our disposal.

We all love a good story and experimenting with a more narrative format is a creative way to spice up your podcast and keep your audience fully engaged. We've seen the success of podcast powerhouses like Serial and Gimlet Media utilize this but how can podcasters build a similar experience without the large budget, staff and resources of these juggernauts? Where do we even start?

Being a podcast host can be quite a challenge. After all, your audience is tuning in to spend time with you every week so you need to make sure that you're entertaining, informative, and just likable in general. That's a lot of pressure! But is podcast hosting something that can be worked on and improved upon or is it something only people with magnetic personalities can succeed at?

So you're producing a podcast or thinking about starting a new one. Sure, you can record your episodes with your laptop mic or on your phone, but that's just going to result in poor audio quality which won't help you gain any listeners. The first step to building an audience is creating great content that sounds professional. If it sounds like you take your podcast seriously then your audience is going to take you seriously.

But where do you start? You're no audio engineer...
