Get this: video podcasting in 2024 isn't just a fad, it's a game changer. This bad boy has the power to take your podcast from 'meh' to 'holy cow!' in no time. How do I know this? Well, sit tight and let me tell you a tale. A tale of a two-year rollercoaster ride that led to a mind-blowing 3900% increase in audience reach just by adding some moving pictures to the good ol' podcast. This article, my friend, is your roadmap. I'm talking about the lowdown on the 80/20 rule in podcasting, the ABCs of video incorporation, and the art of playing the long game for growth that doesn't just spike and then sputter out.


Audio only podcasters know video is important but they either don’t do it or they try to do it without asking themselves “Should I even do it??”

Confused? Fear not as we did an super in depth 32 minute webinar that answers if audio podcasters should and if so how they could go about doing it.
