The Perfect Podcast Structure: Step-by-Step Guide


Listen Later

Today, Louie talks about podcast structure - what a podcast should sound like, how it should be formatted, and how to ensure each element of your podcast is delivered in an engaging way.

Louie explains how to prepare an introduction that will tempt people to listen, followed by a main body that covers the points you have in mind and an outro that makes a lasting impact. He does this for both guest and solo episodes and explains the extra elements you need to add when publishing on video platforms.

EPISODE TAKEAWAYS

If you've got a guest, maybe save recording the introduction until the end of the conversation.
To make the main body of your podcast compelling, structure it with clear segments, maintain a lively pace, and keep the energy high.
Break up the content with transitions, games, CTAs or quick-fire questions to keep listeners engaged. Take inspiration from other successful shows.
BEST MOMENTS
“Having some sort of structure will allow you to pace things properly but will also allow you to keep the energy high.”
“Don't drag it out. If you feel like it's coming to a natural end, end it.”
"They have three very clear sections that they move between via subtle audio transitions along the way. It really keeps the pace going."
“For your outro, you might want to deliver some key points where you readdress certain things or remind people of those call-to-action points.”
