Viral Podcasts Have Valuable Lessons to Teach

Serial, which premiered in 2014, blew up the podcast world. Serial broke previous Apple podcast records at the time by becoming the fastest podcast to reach five million downloads and streams. The programme is credited with altering the podcast business as a whole and laying the groundwork for the subsequent wave of popular podcasts.

Serial, unlike any other podcast before it, captivated audiences. Its time in the spotlight was unprecedented, and the inaugural viral podcast's meteoric growth still holds vital lessons for business people. Continue reading for takeaways that you may use in your next brand show.

 

1. It's important to be first.

Serial's success was aided by the fact that similar podcasts were not available at the time. It was destined to dominate the podcast business, thanks to a scarcity of competitors and a unique approach to the genre. It was the first matter in the world of podcasting.

Finding a new format and sticking to it is an important part of the podcast puzzle, as Serial discovered. Nobody else was narrating serialized true-crime audio stories that were as thrilling and suspenseful as a movie or TV show.

 

2. Create a buzz ahead of time.

It makes no difference how big or little your audience is; you should always try to harness whatever social media following you have prior to your podcast appearance. If your brand already has a loyal following, the best people to promote your podcast with first are those who can interlace and share promotional information. Don't be concerned if you don't have much of a social media presence. A podcast is a fantastic way to foster community building (more on that later).

 

3. Create an online community and set out a time for it.

After you've finished recording your podcast, share it with the social media community to obtain comments. Interact with top fans and spectators directly by responding to their comments or reposting them. If your podcast is set up for it, you may also conduct surveys and even request episode feedback.

It's impossible to overestimate the role of social media in raising publicity for a programme. It's aimed at a group of people who are already fans of your label and are familiar with your previous work. Furthermore, promoting your podcast through online means is often free.
