How do you get started with your corporate podcast? Well, you have a choice to do it in-house or to do it with a specialist. In-house maybe easiest to get started in the short term if you have the ready skills. But the lack of industry wide perspective on what works as well as the risk and cost and employee times and focus may make it a better choi…

Sometime ago, I was giving a presentation to a group of startup founders, and I was talking about narratives and storytelling. After the presentation, one of the startup founders approached me. He looked a little bit confused and he said, "I don't want to tell a story. I want to tell the truth." To which I replied, "If you don't tell a story I won'…

So, what do you talk about on your brand podcast? The answer to this question lies in your audience.

The good news is that you probably have a lot of content already in the house. That …

The Audience Avatar is one of the most important assets that you'll create for your podcast. It's a single sheet that contains everything we need to know about the listener and when I say everything, I mean, everything. For me, this audio book, the Audience Avatar is Nicole. I gave her a name. She's 42 years old. She's a corporate leader. She's a c…

In this section, I'm going to talk about podcast design. Solid, well-researched designs are like the foundations of your podcast. You can't build a house on quicksand. It's the same as starting a podcast without researching who your audience is and what the right design is to achieve your business objectives. That's why anecdotally, a large percent…

What is podcasting for brands all about? I've produced over 1000 podcasts and worked with brands like McKinsey, IBM and AirAsia in my time.

A business podcast is fundament…

The first sense we ever experienced was the sound of another human's heartbeat. Audio is the root of all connection. And this is the same of brand communication as it is for human beings. Video may be exciting and shiny, but you're competing with an army of teenagers who work harder, longer and get more viewers than brands ever will. But what your …

Vox Populi Vox Dei - the voice of the people is the voice of God. We can learn a lot from radio. Radio can teach us what Audio 2.0 needs to do next.

The industry first by BBC Radio was so popular that the Post Office (who then controlled the airwaves) had to step in and shut it down.My…

Tokyo and Shanghai combined have 73 million people. That's more people in 2 cities than the population of California and Texas combined. So many people, so little space.

The problem with this strategy is that it rarely translates into organic…
