23 Jan A Review of our Social Media Club Podcasting Discussion
This morning at the Triangle Social Media Club, Kipp Bodnar led the group’s discussion regarding the business applications of podcasting. I will attempt to recap some of our highlights for those who couldn’t wake up at 8am 🙂
For those companies or individuals that may be determining whether or not to start a podcast, the group consensus was that an evaluation of assets is necessary. The following are some questions to ask:
- Do you have interesting content?
- Who cares?
- What is the information value? Are you providing valuable information at no cost?
- What is your dedication for keeping it going?
Additionally, we also defined the following specific business benefits to podcasting, listed below:
- Extra SEO Juice (thanks to video/audio)
- Brand Building/Image Changing
- Portability (providing on-demand information)
- Affordability
- Ease of Use
- Long Shelf Life
Like I said, these are tidbits, so feel free to continue the conversation by adding additional thoughts in our comments section below.
I also wanted to say thanks again to everyone for coming and contributing to a great discussion. Hope to see you next month!
