Remember podcasts 10 years ago? Maybe not. Most people hadn't heard of them. Now everyone has their own.

Alexa Flash Briefings, like podcasts in 2008, are in their infancy. And they are here to stay. Quick to make and get out, easy for your audience to get their ears on. Don't play catch up. Get ahead of the curve and start yours today. - https://tinyurl.com/y4eckv44

Need to write for your podcast? - News is great, but that means somebody has to write it. If that’s you, and you’re a pro at writing for your newsletter, take a moment and think about how newsletters and newscasts might need different styles of writing. Writing for a listening audience is very different than writing for a reader. Here are some tips to writing and rewriting copy for an audio show. - http://humanfactor.net/read-it-out-loud/

Podcast listeners come back for personal stories - Your audience gets to know your hosts -- the sound of their voice, what they thought of the convention last week, what their views are on the upcoming legislation -- that's why they listen. They learn that the host is a mother of two and her co-host is a grandfather. Hearing your content from someone they can relate to helps build trust (and subscribers!). - http://humanfactor.net/personal-stories-build-audience-trust/

Starting a podcast? Let us be your co-pilot. - Starting a podcast doesn't have to be hard. Here's what we learned in 10 years of launch experience.

Does creating a podcast series sound daunting? - Between coming up with topics, inviting guests, hosting the show, recording the show, publishing the show to all the platforms, and promoting the show, the idea can seem a bit overwhelming. Our three-part process has been successful for many associations in getting through the daunting “idea-to-launch" phase. It’s designed to sharpen your idea and make the show a reality. - http://humanfactor.net/prepare-for-success/

When is it time for an EMERGENCY association podcast?

New laws, conflict, just in time events--all great times to get the word out. What things are important to you and your industry? And how do you capture them on audio so they're not old news by the time you release them? - https://tinyurl.com/yckxu83z

Want podcasting know-how?

I find that I am bantering about podcast topics with association folks all the time. Everyone has told me that I should start a blog or a series because I work with so many different organizations that it would be nice to have a place to go to where people can get info about podcasting.

So I have finally done exactly that. Blake’s Banter About Podcasts will be a weekly source for information about podcasts. It will be audio, video, written word and even (gasp!) VR!!

I hope you find this content useful.
