Yesterday, I attended my first in-person podcasting conference. 🥂
The last time I attended a conference was about 10 years ago when I was still working in an office. The venue, a co-working office and event space, brought back a lot of nostalgia.
The event had a great lineup of speakers! Thanks to for bringing , the longest-running annual in-person podcasting conference in the world, to Manila. 🙌
I also got to meet some of my online podcasting friends, but I realized I need to work on my social skills—I was too shy to approach people.
Swipe to read some of my key takeaways from the event.

Audio Podcast vs. Video Podcast: Which One Should You Start? 🤔
f you're wondering whether to start with audio or video podcasts, keep reading for some considerations to think about before you decide.
When it comes to listening to your favorite podcast, are you or ? Drop a comment and let us know!
Balancing Audio Quality and Content 🎧📚
Both audio quality and content play a huge role in the success of a podcast, but finding the right balance is key.
Regardless of how intriguing the topic or conversation might be, poor audio quality can drive your listeners away right from the beginning. Similarly, even top-notch audio quality won't hold listeners' attention if the content lacks coherence or if you're simply rambling without making sense.
To find the right balance, it’s all about preparation and editing. Here are some quick tips if you’re producing your own podcast:
🔍 Do Your Research - If you're producing solo episodes, begin by researching your chosen topic thoroughly. Create an outline to effectively organize your thoughts or even draft a script. However, be aware to avoid coming across as if you're merely reading from a script.
🎯 Establish Content Pillars - Although hitting the mark with every single episode can be challenging, especially when you're just starting out, defining content pillars can help to find which topics resonate best with your audience.
🎙️Arrange Your Recording Space and Equipment - Creating a quiet and dedicated recording area might sound simple, but it's crucial for consistently clear audio. Remember, even the best or most expensive microphone can't fix a poorly set up recording space.
👥 Prepare Your Guests - Recording podcasts remotely with guests can be a bit challenging, especially since many guests might not have access to a suitable recording environment or proper equipment. Help them out by sharing interview questions and a checklist: stable internet, working mic, and headphones.
✂️ Refine Your Episode with Editing - Proper editing can remove mistakes, pauses, and irrelevant sections, ensuring a smooth narrative. Avoid over-editing, which can make dialogue seem unnatural. For consistent audio quality across different devices, use headphones that are tuned flat. Many modern headphones enhance sound, but this may not translate well to most listeners.
If this feels overwhelming, working with a production team can help save you time, stay consistent, and sound like a pro.🎙️

This might sound discouraging but hear me out.
While branded podcasts can be a powerful tool for brand building and audience engagement, they might not be the immediate solution for your marketing goals.
Consider these factors before launching one. Swipe to continue reading.
How about you? What did you consider when you started your podcast?

Editing your podcast doesn't mean you're not being authentic. ❌
In fact, it's quite the opposite. It means that you value your audience's time and want to ensure they have the best possible experience when consuming your content.
By carefully editing your podcast, you can make it more polished, engaging, and easily digestible while still preserving the core authenticity of your message.
Editing your podcast allows you to curate your content, removing unnecessary tangents, long pauses, or technical glitches that might distract your listeners.
You're not trying to hide imperfections; rather, you want your audience to have an enjoyable and valuable listening experience. 🎧
Which DAW or tools do you use to edit your podcast?

What do you think about ranking high on Podcast charts? 🤔
Is it an important metric for measuring the success of your show?
Honestly, I am torn about this so I would love to know your thoughts in the comments!
Have you heard of the term ‘Podfaster’? ⚡
According to urbandictionary.com, a Podfaster listens to a large number of podcasts at faster than normal speeds, often speeds of 1.2x, 1.5x, and sometimes 2x and even 3x.
They do this to listen to many podcasts during a week compared to the normal average of 5-7 a week.
I honestly didn’t know there was a term for this until I researched if listeners are distracted by fast-talking hosts.
It turns out, some people can’t listen to audio at normal speed!
Do you consider yourself a podfaster?
What speed do you listen to your podcasts?
I’m curious! Let me know in the comments!
Should you really stop using audiograms to promote your podcast? 🤔
I see a lot of comments or advice that podcasters should stop using audiograms to promote their show because it’s old and boring.
But I honestly don’t get it 🤯
It may not be the latest format BUT…
👉 What if it still works for your show?
👉 What if your audience doesn’t like the super fancy video clips?
👉 Will your static post get better reach than an audiogram reel?
Sure, we all know video clips are way better but the reality is...
Not everyone records their podcast on video!
What are your thoughts on this? Let me know in the comments! 👇
If you're thinking about starting a podcast but worried about all of the work that goes into it, working with a production team can be an invaluable asset when starting out.

Are you thinking about starting a podcast in 2023?🎙️
Podcasting has seen incredible growth over the past few years, and now more than ever is the perfect time to get your podcast off the ground.
BUT before diving into launching your own show, it's important to consider whether it's actually something you're prepared for.
That said, here are 8 questions to ask yourself and reflect on before finally deciding to take on such an exciting yet challenging project.
If you need help deciding, we can brainstorm with you.

If you have a podcast, you already know that recording, editing, and publishing great content will not be enough. 🙅♀️
You also need to promote your show so your audience can find you.
You can have the best topic and audio quality podcast in the world, but if no one knows about it, then all your hard work is for nothing.
Here are 3 easy ways to promote your show:
1. Post an audio or video snippet of your upcoming episode on your social channels.
2. Announce a new episode on all your social channels as soon as it’s published.
3. Send an email to your subscribers every time you publish a new episode.
How are you promoting your show? Drop more ideas in the comments below.
According to Edison Research, comedy is the most popular podcast genre.
So we're curious, what’s your favorite podcast genre?
Struggling to Stay Consistent on Your Podcast? 😵
Here are five tips you can implement.
1. Create a content pillar for your show
Developing a strong content pillar is essential to help you stay focused and deliver consistent and engaging episodes. Crafting the right content pillar for your podcast show won’t be easy; it requires careful planning and consideration of what kinds of topics your audience is interested in.
2. Decide on your episode structure
Most podcast episodes have the three basic podcast segments - the intro, the main content and the outro. But there are other ways to structure your episodes, for example - you can add a snippet from the main content at the start before the intro. No matter which structure you choose, stick to it so your audience will know what to expect.
3. Schedule your podcast recording day
No matter what format you choose, establishing a regular podcasting routine can help you maintain momentum and enthusiasm. One effective strategy is to choose one day in your week or month as podcast recording day. Planning ahead and creating at least a basic schedule will make podcasting easier, better organized, and more enjoyable for everyone involved.
4. Stay on-brand
To maximize the impact of a podcast, staying on brand is essential. This means making sure each episode is tied to the same look and feel as your podcast artworks - brand colors, images, and even your theme music. This helps reinforce the overall identity of your brand in the minds of subscribers.
5. Work with a Podcast Manager
Managing the podcast workflow can sometimes be overwhelming and time-consuming. Working with a podcast manager is one of the best ways to ensure the podcast runs smoothly and that you don’t lose sight of important tasks. A podcast manager will help you stay on track, save you valuable time, and optimize your workflow for success.
Implementing these five tips will help you create a more professional and consistent podcast that your listeners will love. 😍

2. It improves the quality of your audio recording to sound like a pro. 🎙️

A Beginner's Guide to Basic Podcast Recording 🎙️
If you are ready to start, here are some of the basics you will need to get your podcast up and running.
* Microphone w/ stand
If you have a quality microphone, you will start with a clean, high-quality sound. A microphone stand is also recommended.
* Audio Interface
Most audio starts and ends as analog sounds. To make digital audio files, a device needs to convert that analog electric signal from our microphone into something our computer can recognize.
* Computer
Laptops and desktop computers are a good choice for most podcasters since various software options are available on both Mac and PC.
* Recording Software
You will need software to edit and process your podcast. One of the most popular pieces of podcast software is the open-source program Audacity which is free to use and is available on Mac and PC.
* Headphones
Every podcaster needs a pair of headphones. This way, you can hear yourself while talking to ensure everything sounds right and there aren't any extraneous sounds sneaking in.
* Quiet Room
You want your podcast to sound great, right? Well, there's no point in getting the best quality equipment and software if you're recording in a noisy space. So make sure that everything is set up in a quiet room so it can do its job properly!

Happy Friday! 🕺💃 Do you batch-record your podcast episodes?
When it comes to podcasting, there are a few different ways you can record your episodes.
Some hosts like to record all their podcast episodes at once, also known as "batching”. This is a great way to increase their productivity and save time, especially if it’s a solo format.
Others prefer to record each episode as it is released, which gives them more flexibility in terms of topic and focus. 🎯
There's no right or wrong way to do it, so experiment and see what works best for you and your show.

Save this for your next recording session 💾

Podcast downloads tend to decline during the holiday season. 🎄 So the question is, should you publish episodes during the holidays? For me, there’s no one-size fits all answer here. You have to think about what works best for your listeners and their preferences during these festivities. If you have a consistent schedule, I suggest sticking to it BUT spicing it up for this special season or creating content related to holiday gatherings.🥂 So are you sticking to your schedule or taking a break this holiday season?

Every podcaster knows how important it is to be consistent with their show. It helps build credibility and trust with potential customers. 👍 Here are 3 ways consistency can help you build trust and credibility. 1. Having regular release dates give listeners something to look forward to. They know that they can count on you to show up and deliver quality content. This helps build loyalty and keep people coming back for more. 2. Consistent branding makes it easy for people to remember who you are and what you do. As human beings, we love familiarity and tend to gravitate towards things that make us feel comfortable. You can show this through your podcast artworks, music and show format. 3. Being consistent in your delivery helps build rapport with your audience. If people feel like they know you and can trust you, they're more likely to take your advice and even buy from you in the future. So if you want to persuade your audience to take action, make sure you're being consistent in everything you do!

Are your podcast downloads good enough? 👀 Honestly, there’s no concrete answer to this because each show is unique. But it’s good to have a benchmark. According to Buzzsprout, one of the leading podcast-hosting platforms, if your episode gets at least 30 downloads in the first 7 days, you’re in the Top 50% of podcasts.🏅 And if your episode gets more than 4,835 downloads in the first 7 days, you’re in the Top 1% of podcasts. 🏆 But remember, podcasting is a long game and it’s incomparable to the social media metrics we’re used to seeing. Just focus on creating valuable content for your audience, and you’ll be amazed at how much it will grow.

3 Things You Need To Know To Make Your Podcast Successful 🚀 ✔️ Choose a topic that you know very well or are passionate about. If you’re not an expert or not enthusiastic about the topic that you want to talk about in your podcast, it will be hard for you to record consistently for a long time. ✔️ Prioritize audio quality. While it’s true that you can use your phone’s mic or your laptop's mic, investing in a proper microphone and headphones will set you up for success, especially if you want to monetize your show. ✔️Stay consistent. As with all pursuits in life, consistency is also key in podcasting - your posting schedule, the topics that you talk about, and the duration of your episodes, everything should stay consistent.
