Podcasting
Becoming a vocal local
Podcasting is an essential communication tool these days. Setting one up poses a number of considerations, which we’ll happily help you out with. The first things you need to be asking are:
- what is it you want to actually say
- have a passion and knowledge for
- can sustain in a structured, regular and engaging manner
Subjects of content, format, technical, recording, editing, hosting and distribution all need serious work. Yes, podcasting is for the bold and the brave – let’s help you cover each of these areas.
Flourishing with style
There is good news though. Podcasting is relatively straightforward with the right sort of planning. It is that pre-production set up that we would be working on with you. It’s here where you can hopefully realise that you have what it takes.
Remember the old ads about a pet being not just for Christmas? Once you have a podcast established, your growing audience will have expectations. They’ll want to hear a regular pattern and a variety of new and original material uploaded. So yes, be ready for the long haul. Thankfully, there are the benefits of increased brand awareness, lead generation or thought leadership. Whatever the reason you’re setting it up, a well-made podcast is a great way of engaging with your audience.
