5 Reasons Businesses Should Consider Podcasting

In a world where every brand is competing for attention, how can yours stand out?

Podcasting and video content have quickly become powerful tools for companies looking to build a stronger, more personal connection with their audience.

Brands like Shopify, GE, and even McDonald’s have embraced podcasting to not only share their expertise but also build loyal communities around their missions.

Wondering if a podcast is right for your brand? Let’s dive into five compelling reasons businesses like yours should consider investing in professional podcast and video content.

1. Reach a Highly Engaged Audience

People listen to podcasts with intention, tuning in while they commute, exercise, or even wind down for the day. This isn’t passive scrolling; podcast listeners are engaged and open to learning. Video adds another layer of connection, allowing audiences to put a face to your brand. By creating this type of content, your brand becomes a trusted voice in people’s daily lives.

2. Build Authority and Trust

Podcasts are an excellent way to showcase your expertise in your industry.

GE’s “The Message” podcast gained attention as a storytelling series that explored the company’s technology and innovation, sparking conversations across multiple sectors.

A podcast or video series can position your brand as a thought leader, attracting customers and collaborators who trust your insights and ideas.

3. Create Content That Lasts (and Lasts)

Unlike social media posts that disappear in a day or two, podcasts and videos can be evergreen content for your brand. You can repurpose episodes into blog posts, snippets for social media, or turn them into an email series.

Not only does this save time, but it also maximizes the reach of every episode.

Think of your podcast as a content-generating machine with results that offer a long shelf life—one that keeps delivering value to new and returning listeners.

4. Expand Your Network

Podcasts provide a unique opportunity to network with industry leaders, potential clients, and even other brands.

Consider how Shopify uses its podcast “Shopify Masters” to feature entrepreneurs from around the globe.

By hosting guests on your podcast or video series, you build relationships with people who can become strategic partners, clients, or even ambassadors for your brand.

5. Showcase Your Brand’s Personality

People connect with brands that feel real and relatable. Podcasting and video content are perfect formats to show your brand’s human side. From interviews and storytelling to roundtable discussions, you can share your mission, values, and the faces behind your business. For example, McDonald’s podcast “The Sauce” explored its corporate culture with transparency, helping listeners see the company beyond its golden arches. The more authentic you are, the more loyal your audience will be.
