Just where does your podcast fit into your marketing strategy? While there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to marketing your business, I do have strong opinions on what the best way to go about it is if you, like me, prefer to spend more of your time working on your business instead of marketing it. I know, strong opinions? Me? Shocker right? So in this post I’m going to be sharing my approach to content marketing, where a podcast fits into that, and what the benefits are of following my lead.

I’m talking:

- What goes into content marketing

- The three platform types you need for success

- Putting together your content marketing strategy

- Strategic content marketing topics

The biggest challenge I see my clients facing is figuring out how to market their business without the marketing turning into a full time job all on its own. Content marketing is a Big Deal, but it’s easy to become overwhelmed. Throw video into the mix and things can become … demanding, which is why I’m sharing my thoughts on what is essentially audio vs video.

I’m talking:

- Why everyone says video is so important

- Why long form video isn’t actually important

- The benefits (and joys) of audio content

- Balancing your content formats for greater success

So I accidentally took 3 months off from everything except client work without telling anyone Taking time off when needed is something I believe in big time, just disappearing isn’t. So for that, I apologise. But it lit a fire under my arse for this episode because there’s ways I think a break, planned or unplanned, should be handled and I failed to do any of it. Hindsight (and learning) is 20/20.

I’m talking:

- incentivising your return to podcasting

- managing expectations

- apologising taking a break

We don’t have any stats on the structure of business podcasts, at least none that I could find after an exhaustive two minute Google search, so I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that 86.3% of all business podcasts use the interview format. I mean, don’t take my word for it because I just pulled that number out of thin air , but it feels like you can’t scroll through a podcast directory without falling over interview shows.

If you’re new to podcasting and are wondering what format to use for yours, it can be easy to follow the crowd because they must know something you don’t, right? So in this post I’m walking you through how to pick the best format for your podcast so that by the end you’ll be able to confidently choose what format, or formats, you’re going to use for your show that’ll help with your business.

I’m talking:

- What exactly is a podcast format

- The three podcast formats I recommend for business owners

- How the Interview format really gets you results

- When you want to take advantage of the Solo format

- How the Co-Hosted format makes your audience feel about you
