When pitching new marketing initiatives, supplement ROI projections with research demonstrating a clear audience need for the content. Framing the project as a valuable service to the customer, rather than just another marketing tactic, is a more powerful way to gain internal support.
Focus on deep engagement metrics like total listening time over easily manipulated vanity metrics like downloads. A smaller, highly engaged audience that spends hours with your content is more valuable than a large, fleeting one that listens for only seconds.
Instead of reactively chopping up content, strategically pre-plan podcast episodes to capture specific quotes and segments. This ensures you create assets perfectly suited for repurposing across diverse channels, from social media to printed annual reports, maximizing your investment.
