Podcast Growth Strategies You Need to Start Using Now

How do you Promote Your Podcast on Facebook?

  • Investing from 50 cents to $400 on Facebook Ads to place your video podcast in the platform could reap significant returns. It can bring in one to 50,000 views for 30 minutes worth of video content.
  • Retargeting audiences keeps them involved. Retargeting podcasts your current content to users who already engaged with previous content, then takes them to your other resources.
  • Facebook Ads cost less than email lists: newsletters can cost about $1.00 to get someone on an email list. Facebook Ads can generate more engagement and at a lower cost.

How Does Podcast Content Work Across Different Platforms?

  • Test different angles for different markets, including releasing varied types of podcast episodes to see what audiences respond to, before expanding into webinars.
  • Consider exploring other platforms, particularly YouTube and LinkedIn.
  • LinkedIn, Quora and Reddit are surprising platforms that can also generate more traffic.
  • It is crucial to determine if your product is suitable on a particular platform. With a lot of traffic coming in, do not exhaust the audience with specialized content.

How can Podcasting be Used as a Lead Magnet?

  • With valuable content, podcasting serves as the conversion point for engaging audiences to join your email list.
  • Charley and Will share the sentiment on how they consume podcasts more than any other medium.
  • As a visual learner, Will expresses how listening to audio content is step one. Once he is motivated to know more about the topic, he gets a book and reads more into it.
  • How you engage with content and your medium preference varies from person to person.
