Podcast Production Made Easy

By now you know that B2b podcasts from you and your company create thought leadership, multi-use content, testimonials and relationships with industry leaders. Podcasts introduce you and your products to thousands of potential customers and those that refer customers, but there are four caveats to be successful.

1. You must be consistent: to gain followers (listeners and subscribers) you must produce a show that they can follow. Once a month programming is very good, twice a month for moderately sized companies, weekly for large companies, audiences and marketing departments large enough to use the resulting content.
2. Your show needs professionalism: Sound, host and announcer quality are important, after all this is entertainment, but host’s actual voice isn’t as important as the content, editing, timing, commercial delivery.
3. Content must be interesting. Each program’s title and its content must be stimulating and worth the time invested by the listener. Programs with “How-To” or similar titles are the most popular and long lasting.
4. Your company can use the content many ways: Podcasts produce so much potential content that each show provides a plethora of content options:  See 16 Ways a Podcast Creates Useable Content. This multi-use content adds listeners; whether it is a testimonial quote, blog, nurture message, book, guest website, white paper or case study quote, podcasts and its transcripts each has a listener base.
