Top Influencer Marketing Podcasts for 2022

If you’re looking to build your influencer marketing strategy, you might have been considering launching a podcast. Or you may have been wondering whether a podcast is really going to be of value to you.

How much work is involved? Will it deliver value? How will a podcast help your brand to build trust with your target audience and expand your reach? 

 

Let’s start with the basics. What is a podcast?

A podcast is a series of episodes, usually based around a particular theme or set of themes. They use audio files, and are usually hosted with a podcast hosting company. This makes it easy for listeners to subscribe to them and get notified every time a new episode comes out.

 

How can a podcast help me build my influencer reach?

For influencers, the best podcasts are a blend of content marketing and influencer marketing, helping your brand to build powerful relationships with your target audience and the top names in your industry.

By reaching out to leading experts and influencers in your industry (who are often surprisingly easy to engage, as a podcast is a fairly minimal commitment, and people are usually flattered to be asked), you can build your own reputation, pick up listeners from your guests’ fans and attract even more guest speakers.

It’s important to remember though, that there needs to be a two-way flow of benefit between you and your guest. True – as you’re reaching their audience, they are reaching yours, but it needs to deliver more than that. An opportunity to promote their brand, or their new book or training programme…whatever their focus, collaborating with you needs to have value for them too.

If you’re in the planning stage, or just starting out with your podcast plans, this can sound a bit daunting, but there are usually ways to overcome this challenge if you get creative. Can you provide them with some ready-made content that they can use on their own channels, for example?

You’ll see from these examples that a successful podcast can come in many shapes and sizes. You can release an episode once a week, once a month, or a few times are year. 15, 30, 45, 60 minutes – the length will depend on your audience, the type of content you are creating, and the time and budget you have available – as well as your goals for your podcast. 

There are numerous podcast platforms out there, which can help you to record, edit and post your own audio files, or, if you have the budget, you can engage someone to handle all that for you. That’s one of the joys of this format – it’s so flexible. 

Whichever approach you choose, though, like any other form of marketing it’s important to have a clear strategy and defined goals.
