Create the Perfect Podcast INTRO // Make Your Podcast Better // Podcast Episode Structure

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Your podcast needs an intro! Not having an episode intro is the same as starting to read a book in the middle, or being at a social event and trying to be part of a conversation that has already started.
How would you feel in these situations?! Lost, right?
Not to mention that you would have to spend some time and mental energy trying to catch up with what's going on.
This is what your listeners go through every time you jump into the episode without providing a roadmap. If within the first few minutes of the episode, you don't give your audience a reason to stay and confuse the heck out of them by jumping into the information with no direction, you will lose them very quickly.
In this video, I’ll show you how to craft an enticing podcast intro using representational systems to make it more appealing to your listeners.

I know that I usually spend my words in the comment section virtually hitting on you every chance I get, But I must express how thankful I am for such practical and simple lessons on getting started. This has been a dream and helping me realize that I just needed my phone and editing software to start really helped me just get started and focus on the meat and substance of my cast. This channel has been something I would recommend to anyone who wants to get started.

    Hi Veronica! I adore your voice and your accent! Thank you for your help. I watched your video about being scared to start before watching this one. I’m stuck thinking I hate my voice, I have a lot to talk about under my topic but I’m at a loss for words when I try to sample record or write it down. My husband and kids keep telling me that I have a gift and I need to share it but I don’t want to fail. My husband says record record record and save it start learning to edit and go from there. I’m trying. Also on this video when you spoke of representational systems, is there a way to use all three? How do you know which audience you will have the most of? I’m going to follow you on all social media platforms because when I become known, other than my family, you will be who I recommend to help others on their journey. If my mortgage wasn’t so high 😢 I would DEFINITELY join your school to learn all I could! You’re amazing! Thank you!

    On SimpleCast there an option for you to choose if you're doing a full episode or a bonus episode. You can add a shorter intro for your bonus episodes telling your audience a little bit of what you're doing in that particular episode so they have some context. Do you wish to replace the MP3 or only adding things to the shownotes?

    hello, can I use in my podcast or in the intro pieces of audio that I extract from youtube? I'm not talking about copyrighted music, if not voices or sound beds. Say, I am interested in playing with the audio of a video, (it can be part of an opinion or a laugh piece, a single word, etc) and use a piece of that for the intro, does that count as copyright infringement? If I take pieces of television news or radio fragments and cut them and edit them, can it be done? I see that a lot of radio shows take audio fragments from interviews, conferences, etc and make radio curtains, I really want to try something like that for an intro, but I have these doubts about copyright* For example, i want to make an intro about economy, so i'm looking for words like "money", "cash", old movies expressions like "i lost my wallet, help", and use them for the intro but i'm not sure if that can bring problems.

    The fit body, fit spirit intro lost me in a matter of a couple sentences. It wasn't that I don't care about fitness but her delivery was more like she was dictating her podcast with a start and a stop every 2 or 3 words. The example was probably ok but the delivery sucked. This video however was great.
