Creatively Contenting Podcast Management

I was in London this week for PodNews Live, a wonderful day of networking, talks and the bougie vibes of White City House. I really got a lot out of the day. I learned so much about creating quality podcasts, marketing them and about the future of the industry.

And I am really grateful for all the people I met, working in a variety of different areas of the podcasting supply chain. The conversations and ideas flowed and I am feeling so inspired in my business now!

My main takeaways:
🎙️ The listener needs to be central to ALL podcast planning
🎙️ The podcast industry is growing FAST
🎙️ A podcast is more than just audio, it is a brand
🎙️ Video podcasting is here to stay, much to the dismay of many audioheads
🎙️ Podcast people are good people

Thank you James Cridland and Sam Sethi at PodNews for organising the day. Maybe there will be a Dublin event in the future? 😉

How do you plan your podcast episodes? ☝️

Good podcast episode planning can make the difference between your podcast being “just another podcast” and being a crucial part of someone's week. 🥰

Try out our episode planning framework to plan your episode like a pro.
1️⃣ Know your audience: Your podcast audience is key to crafting content that resonates.
2️⃣ Reflect on your podcast goals: do you want to educate or entertain? How can you do that with this episode?
3️⃣ Brainstorm ideas: Creative podcast idea generation is the foundation of unique and engaging content.
4️⃣Find and prepare guests: Seek guests whose expertise aligns with your topic and prepare them for any questions you may ask.
5️⃣ Take episode length into account: plan your episodes around how long you’ve got to make sure you don’t run over, or plan to do a two-parter if its a heavy topic.
6️⃣ Create your running order: A running order is a structured plan that outlines the sequence within your podcast episode. Download our free running order template at the link below to structure your ep like a pro. https://www.creativelycontenting.com/podcast-running-order-template/
