Promotion Through Entering Awards & Competitions

Pocket-Sized Podcasting With Alitu

Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about entering awards and competitions. “It’s not the winning, it’s the taking part” might be an old cliche, but there’s some truth to it. Awards and competitions aren’t just a chance to win something. They’re an opportunity for visibility too. Participating in a couple of awards or competitions each year can be useful. They can help you to spread the word about your show, expand your reach and network, and grow your audience. These awards might be regional, or online. They might be podcast-specific, or, built around your industry or topic. Some ask you to make or do something, whilst others request a fee. You’ll just need to weigh all of this up to decide which ones are really going to be worth it. And, you never know, you might even win something. But, to be honest, we all know a few new listeners are worth more than some wee trophy. And all you have to do for that… is take part. Thanks for listening to Pocket-Sized Podcasting.
