5 tips for a successful podcast
Recording a podcast may sound easy. All you need is a good microphone, right? But creating a podcast that people truly want to listen to takes more. Here are our best tips for making your podcast a success:
A clear format is at the heart of your podcast. Think about the podcast's duration, series length and structure beforehand. Around 20-30 minutes per episode is usually considered a good length. Moreover, think about the pattern: introduction, climax and any call-to-action. And finally, make sure you add something recognisable. A jingle, a recurring clip or another fixed element.
Are you going to explore certain topics in more depth? Then invite experts or experts by experience to join the discussion on the topic. Also pay attention to whether they have a nice voice or can tell interesting stories. Think of several questions in advance and submit them to them already. At the same time, it is also fun to ask spontaneous questions, because that is how you keep the podcast alive.
The best way to keep people interested is to activate their empathy. For example, by using storytelling. Stories stick, so tell information using real stories and experiences. This creates more experience in the subject.
People want to feel heard. Even if they are listening to your podcast. You extend the reach by adding an interactive element. For example, you can ask questions via social media and address them in your episode. Also nice: give your audience a say on the next topic. This is how you build a community around your podcast.
This sounds rather logical, yet it is more common than you think: poor quality. A siren bellowing in the background, the doorbell ringing or a screaming child in the street... Oy! A bad recording scares listeners away. So opt for a professional studio, then you know you won't be bothered by this. At Jaarbeurs we use top equipment for the best sound and our studio is designed so that you won't hear any background noise.
