Your podcast shouldn’t exist in a vacuum like Billy No Mates. For maximum impact weave it into your overall communication strategy, interacting and supporting other bits of your marketing - including online. Here’s some examples of how you can do this. - Short, engaging clips from your podcast can be shared on social media to encourage listeners to tune in to the full episode. Then, during your podcast, encourage listeners to follow you on social media for behind-the-scenes content and exclusive updates. - You can also tease exciting excerpts from your podcast on your blog, driving traffic to your website. And why not explore the other way around? Share relevant blog posts or articles as part of your podcast content. - Finally, your newsletter is a fantastic platform to preview upcoming episodes, highlight guest interviews, or revisit popular past episodes. What other opportunities in your existing eco-system do you have? Remember, the key is to create a seamless experience for your audience across all channels. #Podasting #Marketing #Comms ------- We're a podcast production and training agency for the social impact sector. Drop us a line on here if you're looking for support or training to help get your podcast idea off the ground and in people's ears!

What are the things we can all do to make our streets, parks and public spaces, safe and joyful places to live, work and play? The Right To The Streets movement is needed now more than ever before. So, we're over the moon to be nominated alongside Greater Manchester Moving for Best Podcast for the Right To The Streets series at this year's MPA - Manchester Publicity Association Inspiration Awards. It's the second year running MIC has been up for the award - can we make it two years in a row as winners? Read more about our nomination here ⬇️

Do you want to start a regular podcast series, but just the thought of committing to a weekly show, gives you horrendous heebeejeebees? Here at MIC media, we champion social impact organisations and value-led businesses to use their voices for good, but we totally understand that the stress of balancing time and resources is real! So how’s approaching your podcast project as a ‘series’? Let’s say 7 or 8 episodes will make up your series. Block out some time in your diary for the planning, approaching guests (if you’re having them), recording your content, the editing and not forgetting the marketing. Then you can schedule your releases weekly and then rest, regroup, regather, reflect…ready for series 2. So you’ve still got that weekly series, but you’re not constantly churning out content, and perhaps getting a bit fraught whilst doing so! Remember, consistency is key, but it doesn't mean constant output. ----- We can help you to launch your podcast, from supporting you to shape your idea, guide you to record and edit brilliant audio and release your new series. Drop me a line on here to have a chat about our podcast coaching, training and production services.
