[ Over the Line Podcast]Podcasting, just like blogging or posting on social media, is one train car on your content marketing railroad. It becomes content you own and can live forever. A podcast is a way to distribute your message but does not work well without a fundamental plan or rail map.
(Unless you are The Boxcar Children, then it works pretty well as a home).
With any marketing tactic or idea, you MUST start with a plan. Determine your business goals, confirm how you will measure success, identify your target audience, and go where your audience is.
“Isn’t podcasting just another shiny marketing toy to chase?”
Hardly. But don’t take our word for it.
In December 2020, Borrell & Associates surveyed 2262 local advertisers nationwide. Here’s what they said:
“You’re just trying to sell me your podcast services!”
STOP RIGHT THERE. Yes, we’re good at podcasting, and yes, it is a key part of the services we offer here.
However, you MUST have a strategy and match the needs of your audience. If podcasting is your way to answer common questions or connect your brand with your audiences’ emotions – carry on!
If you launch a podcast just for the SEO boost or to hear yourself talk, spend your money elsewhere.
