Putting Data to Use in Your Podcast Marketing Strategy

Good data is essential for marketing large business, and the insights metrics provide are invaluable. Podcasters can harness the power of data too, and use it to effectively grow their audience.

A recent article on Forbes by Fatima Zaidi examines How to Effectively Leverage Data in Your Podcast Marketing Strategy. The three big points that Zaidi lands on make sense:

• Use data to understand your listener profile. Researching demographics and knowing your audience's interests can go a long way to help you connect to your listeners.
• Leverage data-driven insights. Data-driven insights like engagement metrics, episode performance comparisons, and demographics should be put to use when creating your marketing strategy.
• Make data actionable. Zaidi suggests investing in analytics tools that offer data, insights and advice. She also recommends creating measurable goals, which is a good idea in any marketing plan.
