Launching a Podcast as a Platform for Influence and Engagement

Challenge:

Launching Audacity Marketing wasn’t simply about adding to the plethora of marketing podcasts. We aimed to create a unique platform that combined in-depth marketing insights with the expansive reach of personal branding.

My role focused on technology and marketing, while Michelle Frechette brought her podcast, community growth and engagement acumen to the forefront, together aiming to transform our conversations into opportunities for engagement and lead generation.

Approach:

- Distinct Branding: I took on the logo and website design, aiming for a visual identity that immediately communicated our podcast’s innovative spirit.
- Efficient Content Creation: Using Castos for hosting allowed us to focus on producing compelling content. Beyond recording, we established an automated system with ChatGPT and Zapier to repurpose our discussions into engaging content across social platforms.
- Focused Promotion: We didn’t just release episodes; we strategically promoted them. Automating social media content ensured that each discussion reached beyond our immediate audience, sparking wider engagement and attracting new listeners.
