Day 28: Social Media for Launch

No items found.

Today we discuss why social media is a great way to promote your podcast, which platforms to focus on, what social media will do for your personal brand and business, what to focus on for your social media strategy, and how to make content creation fast and easy.

Steps for Skill Mastery:

  1. Choose your platform
  2. Create and share content

Step 1: Choose Which Platform to Focus On

When first starting out with your podcast, I recommend focusing on one platform that your audience uses the most. If your ideal avatar is on Twitter, focus on building your Twitter following. If they are on instagram, then focus on creating content for instagram.

Activity: Choose Your Platform

Choose which platform you would like to focus on creating content for to promote your podcast.

Now that you have chosen a platform, let's create some content to share your podcast launch.

Step 2: Create & Share Content

Using some of the strategies we discussed in today's lesson, begin thinking of ways you could start creating and sharing content on the platform you have chosen.

A great place to start is by sharing your trailer episode. You can create an audiogram of your trailer for social media using a service like headliner or wavve.

Activity: Create an Audiogram

Create an audiogram for your podcast trailer to share on your social media platform.

Continue to create and share content about your podcast as we continue throughout your launch.
