4 Reasons to Create Your Own Podcast for Your Business or Hobby
For a long time, podcasting was the domain of radio professionals and public speakers exclusively. But since podcasting has grown in popularity in recent years, that's changed. Anyone with an interest or a message to share can now create their own show and reach an even wider audience as a result. And if you're curious about what benefits come with this decision, here are four reasons why creating your own podcast for your business or hobby is something you'll definitely want to consider!
1) Podcasts are so accessible - You don’t need much more than your voice and free recording software to get started on a new show. So, if you have a good idea or a story to tell, there is no reason why you can’t create your own show. You may have seen some of the big-time show creators and public speakers putting their podcasting information on social media. Blogging and social media are great ways to get the word out about your new podcast, but you also want to use it to promote your business indirectly as well.
2) You'll reach new audiences - Creating your own podcast will be something completely new for anyone listening to your show. This will make it easier for people who aren't familiar with the topic or story you're sharing to listen in. It's one thing to just show up and do a regular radio talk show; but it's something else entirely when you're talking about something that is new to everyone else in your area.
3) You can be proud of what you do - As with any other business, the more people that know about your product or service, the more potential customers you have. Reaching out to a more diverse audience than just those in your local area will help build awareness for who you are and what your business represents. Your existing clients and potential clients will also see the effort you put into promoting your podcast as well. They’ll appreciate your professionalism and they’ll feel better knowing that you’re an expert who is telling their story.
4) You'll gain direct access to your audience - With all the social media out there, it's easy to just post what you're up to and never hear anything back from anyone. But creating a podcast will give you direct access to those who are ready to hear what you have to say. You'll be able to share your knowledge with others and have a real conversation with them; this will ultimately help with the way that your business or hobby is seen by those around you.
Ultimately, creating your own podcast will bring a lot of positive change to the way that you do business or promote your message. It will also make you stand out from the crowd of other people who are sharing their messages on social media. If this is something you're thinking about doing for your business or hobby, start by listening to some of the shows online today and see what they offer. You can also check out some of the podcasts offered by public speakers such as Andy Frisella, Ziglar, and many others. Getting started with podcasts as a great way to get started in this exciting industry!
