In this episode of Remarkable, I have a conversation with Janet Kennedy, a radio host turned marketer, who came full circle two years ago when she landed behind a microphone to launch a podcast on social media and healthcare.
She’s had an extensive career in marketing, and in this episode, we talk in detail about social media and digital marketing, and she shares some great tips on how to utilize Twitter to promote and grow your podcast.
Janet and I both hail from the Triangle region of North Carolina, which includes Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, and she serves with fellow podcaster, Charles Gupton, and me as organizers of the North Carolina Podcasting Meetup.
She’s the founder of the Get Social Health Academy, and host of the Get Social Health podcast, where she just recently published episode number 100.
In this episode, Janet and I discuss:
- How to utilize Twitter to promote and grow your podcast
- Practical tips for increasing engagement and maximizing exposure on twitter
- How to build relationships with guests after they’ve been on your show
- What a tweet chat is and how to use it
- How and why Blab may be a great opportunity to build your network and audience
- How to quickly find and curate great content to share with your audience
- The importance of connecting with influencers
- The prep work you should do before ever launching a podcast
- Why niching down is important for your podcast
- Using your voice to share stories that matter
- Finding a unique angle that supports your brand
