Hey, Podcasters! 

This week, we are switching things up! We're going to talk about a feature that doesn’t get nearly enough love: Dynamic Content. Let's get to it!

If you’ve never used it before, ​Dynamic Content​ is a tool in your Buzzsprout account that lets you easily add or remove pre-roll, mid-roll, or post-roll segments to any of your episodes.

Think of it as being able to add a quick message, announcement, or promotion, and swap it out whenever you want. But with no editing! That's right, these segments aren't added to your original audio files, so you can switch them out at any point.

It’s a flexible way to keep your episodes fresh without the hassle of re-editing your entire back catalog.

You can use Dynamic Content to...

  • Thank a sponsor
  • Announce an upcoming event
  • Send a holiday greeting
  • Respond to Fan Mail 
  • Thank your supporters
  • Promote a giveaway
  • Invite listeners to interact on Social Media
  • Mention upcoming conferences you'll be attending
  • Cross-promote other podcasts


You can even get creative!
Some podcasters use Dynamic Content to rotate intro or outro music across their episodes (like this ​great idea on Reddit​).

If you'd rather listen than read, you can learn about Dynamic Content in ​this episode​ of The Proffitt Podcast. Krystal does a great job of walking you through four ways to use Dynamic Content and why it's important for content creators to know how to utilize it. 

How do you use it? ​Join the conversation in our Facebook group​ and share your best practices or ideas with other podcasters.

Dynamic Content is available for all Buzzsprout podcasters in your Buzzsprout account! You can check it out by going to the Episodes page and clicking on the Dynamic Content tab.

Alright, that's all for Dynamic Content, and all I have for this week. I'm excited to hear how you use it!

That's all for this week! Thanks for listening & keep podcasting!
