Headliner: Build Audiograms For Your Podcast To Promote Socially

The podcast industry continues to grow for businesses. We’ve seen the incredible impact on the podcast series that we’ve helped companies to launch – many easily moving into the top percent of their industry due to a lack of competing alternatives. Podcasting is a fantastic marketing channel for several reasons:

  • Voice – provides an intimate and emotionally engaging experience where your prospects and customers can build trust and get to know your brand personally.
  • Retention – we all want to assist our clients to have success… so developing an audio content library that helps them utilize your products or educate them on your services is a great way to set expectations, build trust, and and achieve success.
  • Testimonials – product and service companies often talk about their features and benefits, but don’t often share the stories of their customers. Interviewing a customer is a great way to build awareness and trust for your brand.
  • Awareness – interviewing influencers and industry leaders on your podcast is a great way to co-promote your products and services and build a relationship with the people leading your industry.
  • Prospecting – I’ve interviewed several prospective clients for my podcast and then signed them up as customers in the future. It’s been an incredible way to break through on sales… and it’s mutually beneficial.

That said, podcasting can be somewhat complex. From recording, editing, producing intros/outros, hosting, syndicating… all of these take effort. We’ve shared a comprehensive article in the past on this. And… after your podcast is published, you need to promote it! One incredibly effective way of doing this is with an audiogram.

What Is An Audiogram?

An audiogram is a video that captures the sound wave visually from an audio file. The Y-axis represents the amplitude measured in decibels and the X-axis represents frequency measured in hertz.

For digital media and marketing purposes, an audiogram is a video file where your audio is combined with graphics so that you can promote your podcast on a video channel like YouTube or embed it in a social channel like Twitter.

Social video generates 1200% more shares than text and image content combined.

G2 Crowd

To be honest, I’m quite surprised that social and video channels don’t have podcast publishing built directly into their platforms for this purpose… so we have to rely on third-party tools like Headliner.
