We share the same passion for engaging our audiences (you, amigos) and sharing knowledge through podcasting. We will discuss our journeys so far since we are still learning about this medium as we go along, we will tackle the benefits of starting a podcast vs running a blog (or can we do both?) and provide some tips for anyone looking at starting one.

This episode is for you if you are curious about starting a podcast:  The practicalities, how to get started, what to keep in mind, and as well the benefits of podcasting.

Key Takeaways:

  • The power of podcasting: Meeting awesome people and leveraging knowledge. This is as well an opportunity for an undistracted conversation (very rare these days).
  • You get access to free knowledge and you can build a connection with the audience, just think of the radio shows you enjoy (or have enjoyed in your teenage years).
  • Your audience can listen to Podcasts on the go, during your commute, on a trip, or while preparing in the morning.
  • There is a low barrier to entry as the startup costs are minimal: Hosting costs and a microphone below 100 USD/EUR,… On the flip side, there is a big learning curve with regards to the technical aspects and the first episode will be hard!
  • Should you repurpose your content? YES! Adapt your content to the platform and you will attract visitors from different platforms (Pinterest, Instagram, Twitter, etc)
  • Just do it, just start even if it a 5-minutes intro episode.
