Getting people on your email list is one of the most crucial elements of running a successful podcast newsletter, and I discuss it in today's episode of Digital Podcaster. If you've ever thought about starting a newsletter or already have one, you've probably asked yourself, "How can I get people to sign up for this?" I meet a lot of podcasters who start a newsletter but don't do anything with it because they don't see the point... or they just see it as another uphill climb like growing their podcast.   The good news is that when you promote your newsletter, you make it easier for your podcast to grow and your community to get stronger.   Here are some ways to help people sign up for podcast newsletters:   Include a sign up form in your Instagram Stories. Make a simple post sharing the value of being a member of your newsletter and include a link for people to sign up. Thankfully Instagram doesn't have a limit anymore on the number of followers you need to include a link in your stories, so this is available for everyone. What's important is that you save your stories as an Instagram Highlight after you post it so others can easily find it.   Offer an incentive in exchange for an email address. Just simply asking someone to "sign up" or subscribe may not be very enticing so offer something of value in exchange; such as if you had business podcast make an accompanying PDF download that goes along with each episode where people enter their name and email address in exchange for the download and know they'll also receive weekly emails from you.   Collaborate with other podcast newsletters - collaborate with other podcasters by doing cross-promos where both mention each other's newsletters which allows access each other's audience resulting in increased subscribers.   Run contests or giveaways - run contests or giveaways offering something valuable such as special content, exclusive interviews etc….  Include CTA (call to action) link - add call-to-action link in show notes directing people to signup form contact page or landing page.   Add Link To Email Signature -add links in email signature letting contacts know about podcast & direct them right away to the instruction page or contact page.   Paid Ads - run targeted paid ads on social media such as Facebook & Twitter with links directing them towards subscription forms etc...   Facebook Group form - If you have an associated Facebook Group for your podcast, when they request to join your group you can ask them for their email and if they’d like to be added to your newsletter.   By using just a couple of these strategies, you can start to increase your subscriber base quickly and engage your audience deeper… which will result in better overall engagement and growth opportunities.   If you’d like to go deeper on this, click here to download a free 13-page guide that covers the current best practices for building a successful podcast newsletter.   This episode is made possible because of: The Creator Club - Your online community for podcasters, video creators, and writers Content Clips - Expert podcast and Shorts editing services for businesses and brands

Ready to up your podcasting knowledge? Today we’re diving into the key terms every podcast host should know when it comes to audio editing, production, and marketing.   We’re covering the foundations of podcasting with terms like RSS, hosting platforms, dynamic microphones, and much more.   If you’ve ever been confused by terms related to podcasting, this episode should clear things up for you and help you sharpen your skills as a podcast host.   Key Takeaways:   RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication, and it is a format for syndicating content from a website. When you subscribe to a podcast, you're actually subscribing to the RSS of that podcast, which contains the audio files for each episode.   Hosting platforms such as Buzzsprout, Anchor, Captivate, Transistor, and Libsyn store and distribute your podcast. It's important to choose a hosting platform that has the features you need, is easy to use and understand, and is not too technical.   Dynamic microphones are the preferred type of microphone for recording a podcast. They're good at picking up a wide range of frequencies and providing a clear, crisp sound with minimal room or background noise. They're also more durable than other types of microphones.    Clipping happens when an audio signal is too intense and it reaches the maximum range of its capabilities. This can cause distortion in the sound and negatively impact the quality of your podcast.   This episode is made possible because of: The Creator Club - Your online community for podcasters, video creators, and writers Content Clips - Expert podcast and Shorts editing services for businesses and brands

He explains the importance of building trust and credibility with listeners through a high number of positive reviews, and shares a proven method for asking listeners to leave a rating and review.   Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:Podcast ratings and reviews help build trust and credibility with listeners. If a listener sees a podcast with a high number of positive reviews, they are more likely to trust and listen to that podcast.   The easiest way to get more ratings and reviews is to simply ask for them. But it's not enough to just ask; you need to provide a direct link for listeners to follow.   When asking for ratings and reviews, make it personal to the listener and give them a direct ask.

Miles also dives into the roles and significance of internal and external branding in connecting with audiences.   Here are some key takeaways from this episode:   To get into a creative flow, Miles suggests setting aside dedicated time for creative work and finding ways to eliminate distractions.   Knowing the end goal of your branding efforts is crucial to success. Without a clear finish line in mind, it's difficult to stay focused and make progress.   A unique message is essential for building a successful brand. Your message should be authentic and reflect the values and mission of your business.   To create a powerful brand presence, Miles advises focusing on making your words matter and moving towards your bigger mission.   One thing Miles wishes more people knew is the importance of building strong relationships with their customers.   External branding refers to how your brand is perceived by people outside your organization. This includes everything from your logo and marketing materials to your customer service and overall reputation.   Audio branding, or the use of sound to convey your brand's identity, can be a powerful tool for connecting with your audience. By using consistent music and sound effects, you can create a memorable brand experience.   >Click here to learn more about Miles Hanson and check out his podcast called The Subtle Art of Not Yelling.   This episode is made possible because of: The Creator Club - Your online community for podcasters, video creators, and writers Content Clips - Expert podcast and Shorts editing services for businesses and brands
