Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! It feels like every week there's a new post asking the same question: "Should I start a video podcast?" With video showing up in more podcast directories, and with Buzzsprout now offering video plans, it's easy to feel like you're falling behind if you're not recording every episode on camera.

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! A lot of podcasters assume getting booked as a guest is all about having a huge audience or impressive credentials. But that's usually not what hosts care about. Hosts want guests who have something clear to contribute and make the conversation interesting! This week on Buzzcast, we’re joined again by Alex Sanfilippo, founder of Podmatch, to talk about how to actually get booked on podcasts. One of the biggest takeaways: your guest profi...
Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! When most people talk about “repurposing” a podcast, they usually mean turning it into marketing content: clips, blog posts, newsletters, or social media. But this week on Buzzcast, we talked about using your podcast to create entirely new experiences for your audience.

Anytime I wanted to swap a promo, update a sponsorship, or change a call-to-action, I had to go back and edit each episode one by one. That was until I learned about Dynamic Content! Dynamic Content lets you add and remove time-sensitive content across your entire back catalog, without re-uploading anything. So instead of old promos and outdated messages sticking a...
Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! I talk with podcasters all the time who don't launch their shows because they think there are already too many podcasts about their topic. They might be right; the category could be crowded. But instead of focusing on a category, they should be focusing on their niche. This week on Buzzcast, we break down the difference, and it’s one of those shifts that changes how you approach your entire show! A category is broad: business, paren...

Send a question for 'Ask Megan' Hey, Podcasters! Think about the last time you checked out a new podcast. You hit play…and within a minute or two, you decided whether to keep listening or move on. That’s not unusual. In fact, a huge chunk of listener drop-off happens in the first few minutes of an episode! Your intro is your podcast's first impression! What Your Intro Needs to Do A good intro is about giving listeners a reason to stay. At its core, your intro should: Introduce who you...
