How to Know What Your Podcast Audience Wants

  1. How to Know What Your Podcast Audience Wants Dave Jackson 5:16

Audience engagement is critical for the success of any podcast. It’s important to know who your audience is and what they want to hear. By understanding your audience, you can create content that resonates with them and keeps them coming back for more. Today I have three strategies to help you gain insights into your audience.

1. Amazon

Look for your topic and then look at the 2 and 4-star reviews. These often are more constructive and descriptive.

2. YouTube

Look for a channel on your subject, and then sort so you can see the most popular videos. Then go into the most popular video, and you can sort by the most helpful comments.

3. Facebook Groups

When you find a Facebook group on your subject, be sure to read the rules. When you see a post you might want to follow, you can click on the ” … ” and choose to “Turn on Notifications for this Post.”
