Well Structured and Entertaining Podcasts Cut Through the Noise
A great podcast starts with a great idea, but that is just the starting point. From initial idea through to listener download, there are a sequence of steps that will ultimately determine the success of a podcast.
Answering the following questions will help to plan and execute a successful podcast.
- What is it that is unique and interesting about this podcast?
- How do you present that in an easily digestible and entertaining way?
- How do you make it sound excellent everywhere that it will be played (car, earbuds/AirPods, Bluetooth speaker etc…)?
- Who is your audience and how do you reach them?
- Does your podcast have a unique sonic identity?
It is imperative to comprehensively answer all of these questions in order to produce a podcast that reaches its target market.
