How Podcasting can Strengthen Your Brand
If you want to build a strong brand, the way you market to your audience cannot be limited to one department. Different platforms have different audiences and you may not even realize it. The audience you have on Instagram is not necessarily the same as your twitter and same goes for the rest of the social media outlets offered.
Podcasting can be a valuable tool to increase your brand awareness. Technology gives brands an opportunity to market themselves in ways they have not been able to before and is now faster than ever. It gives brands ways to communicate with their existing and potential audience in numerous ways and podcasting is just the tip of the iceberg.
The popularity of podcasts has gained its wave in recent years and many brands today are hopping on this trend and it is for a good reason. This type of media is gaining its traction because it allows for different niches and industry topics. It can turn the dullest and boring topics into learning experiences from different perspectives.
4 Ways a Podcast Can Strengthen Your Brand:
Capture Your Audience's Attention - Most people are used to having and holding conversations and a podcast is very much like a conversation you are listening in on. It’s a way to tell a story about the content and add a personal anecdote so the audience gets a better understanding of how the speaker thinks.
Building Connections - Podcasts gives a brand the ability to work with other creators like them. By having another speaker or even another brand it adds a different perspective to things and can even show that there is room for the company to improve and have even bigger collaborations.
Create a Personalized Experience - One of the great things about podcasts is that the audience gets to hear your voice and the emotion behind it. It will allow them to understand your thinking patterns and get to know the speaker on a deeper level. Unlike blogs, Instagram posts, Youtube videos, etc. Podcasts have a way of capturing the audience's attention in a way that feels more personal and has a more impactful capacity.
Building Authority - A podcast is a platform to speak your mind on and you can do so by discussing your specific industry and/ or your personal experiences. Start a podcast about a niche you consider yourself an expert at and soon enough, others will follow and you will even gain new audiences.
Now that you have numerous reasons to start a podcast, go out and do it! There are so many platforms you can host through, it's just a matter of what your price range is and how accessible you want it to be to your viewers.
