Why should you start a podcast?

But everyone has a podcast now, why should I get involved…?" I hear you cry. Podcasts offer many benefits for creators and with approximately 25 million regular listeners can you afford not to be part of this audio revolution?

Podcasts provide a platform to share expertise, passions, and stories with a potentially global audience, fostering creativity and building a dedicated community.

Not only can they be a cost-effective medium with low entry barriers, but they can also serve as a powerful marketing tool, helping businesses connect with their target audience and establish authority in their niche.

Podcasts are easy to consume content on the go, can provide a wealth of information and inspiration, and can create a personal connection to the audience. hosts.

So maybe the question isn’t "Why should I get involved?", it’s "When can I get started?"
