Hi there,
We’ve poured you another cup of inspo to quench your thirst for podcast growth. Careful though, today’s drip is extra hot!
TIP 1 - Get your podcast on YouTube
YouTube is now the top platform for podcast listening so time to get on it. The 3 categories you want to put your energy into? A mix of: 1) Full-length episodes 2) 5-10 minutes clips 3) YouTube shorts (<1 min)
TIP 2 - Want superfans? Activate your passive listeners first
One way to do that: Give your listeners a small quick win. Something they can do in 5-10 minutes and actually see a result. Then they immediately want to see more. From that point on, they’ll be activated.
TIP 3 - Use the Freytag Pyramid for storytelling
Storytelling is the best way to build connection and to craft a powerful story, it needs to have a shape. The Freytag Pyramid provides a great 4 part structure. 1) the exposition (your introduction) 2) the complication 3) the climax 4) the denouement (your outro)
