Speaker
For our fellow Filipino podcasters now, we know most of them are a one-man show.
00:01:30
Speaker
If a one-person team podcaster wants to widen his reach via YouTube,
00:01:36
Speaker
social media marketing strategies, what do you think he or she should do?
00:01:41
Speaker
Yung pag-grow ng podcast sa social media, get more downloads.
00:01:47
Speaker
So for me, ang pinaka-importante kasi talaga para sa akin pagdating sa promotion, is yung social media kasi lahat ng tao ngayon, if they want to know more about you,
00:01:58
Speaker
not usually on the website.
00:02:00
Speaker
Although, it's important to be the website.
00:02:03
Speaker
But it's important to have a social media presence because you can engage in the audience.
00:02:10
Speaker
So, I have clients that use Twitter because it's easier to talk to them.
00:02:21
Speaker
So, the first thing that you should do is make sure that if you're going to post on Facebook, Instagram,
00:02:28
Speaker
The content you can see is good for the graphics and the copy.
00:02:34
Speaker
Because that's what important

Engagement Strategies for Podcasters

00:02:37
Speaker
is.
00:02:37
Speaker
We can see that we can post on Instagram, a picture, and there's no caption.
00:02:42
Speaker
So it's hard to do it.
00:02:44
Speaker
Because Instagram is what they want to do is make the users longer on the platform.
00:02:52
Speaker
So, paano ba yun mapapatagal?
00:02:54
Speaker
So, ayun, katulad nun, if you have a podcast, use yung, ginagamit ko, highlighter ba yung tawag?
00:03:00
Speaker
Highlighter app.
00:03:01
Speaker
Sa pagawa ng audio forms.
00:03:04
Speaker
Or waveforms.
00:03:05
Speaker
Ayun, marami naman free.
00:03:06
Speaker
Yeah.
00:03:07
Speaker
Ang dami free na apps.
00:03:09
Speaker
So, yan.
00:03:09
Speaker
Yung Wave, yung iba Wave.
00:03:11
Speaker
Anong ginagamit niya, sis?
00:03:12
Speaker
Headliner yung ginagamit ko ngayon.
00:03:15
Speaker
Natry ko na rin yung headliner.
00:03:17
Speaker
Wave.
00:03:18
Speaker
Ayan.
00:03:18
Speaker
So, yun yung ginagamit ko.
00:03:20
Speaker
Kasi maganda siya.
00:03:21
Speaker
Lalo na if lalagyan niyo ng captions.
00:03:24
Speaker
Para, di ba, kasi, syempre, yung ibang listeners, di ba, para maging mas okay siya para dun sa mga, for example, hindi yung may mga
00:03:35
Speaker
impaired, yung ganyan.
00:03:36
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, visually impaired.
00:03:37
Speaker
So, importante talaga yung merong captions.
00:03:40
Speaker
Or yung show notes, kaya yung iba may ganun.
00:03:42
Speaker
So, yun.
00:03:43
Speaker
First is yung content.
00:03:45
Speaker
Make sure na talaga pinag-isipan.
00:03:46
Speaker
Ayan.
00:03:47
Speaker
And then, don't forget to add a call to action or a question sa bawat caption.
00:03:53
Speaker
Na parang ano yung makukuha nila sa episode na yun?
00:03:56
Speaker
Kasi kahit mahaba yung caption mo, usually sa end or sa start, ilalagay yung call to action.

Building a Loyal Audience

00:04:02
Speaker
Just as simple na ano yung
00:04:05
Speaker
na gusto nila sa episode or ano yung quotes na favorite nila.
00:04:09
Speaker
So, something na mag-e-engage nila or mas-share nila yung content.
00:04:14
Speaker
And then, I think the next is, of course, yung engagement.
00:04:18
Speaker
Kasi yan naman yung pinaka-importance.
00:04:20
Speaker
As much as possible, if someone commented on your post, parang kahit hindi naman agad-agad, pero dapat makita rin nila na active ka.
00:04:29
Speaker
Kasi, di ba, kahit ako eh, pag meron akong nagustuhan na podcast host or kahit mga celebrity,
00:04:34
Speaker
The type of like just in comments, oh my gosh, I'm in a fan girl mode.
00:04:41
Speaker
So, that's my feeling.
00:04:43
Speaker
Even if the marketers are just a bad person, the experts, they reply or just they just hear their heart.
00:04:50
Speaker
I mean, I have to say that they have to say that they have to say that they have to say that.
00:04:55
Speaker
So, for me, it's a big deal.
00:04:57
Speaker
So, that's what we should think about.
00:04:59
Speaker
Kahit podcast host ka man or entrepreneur ka man, if someone shared your content, especially sa Instagram, madali naman lang gawin, is share their content or say as simple as, kahit thank you,
00:05:12
Speaker
Kasi it means a lot already.
00:05:14
Speaker
And doon ka makakakuha ng loyal audience, loyal fanbase, loyal followers.
00:05:20
Speaker
Oh, na parang hindi siya snub, no?
00:05:22
Speaker
Ah, okay to.
00:05:22
Speaker
Friendly to.
00:05:23
Speaker
Ganun.
00:05:24
Speaker
Kasi di ba minsan parang, ay, shocks.
00:05:26
Speaker
Nababasa niya talaga.
00:05:27
Speaker
So parang di ba, lalo ako makikinig dito.
00:05:31
Speaker
Parang next time, contribute ulit ako dito sa podcast host na to.
00:05:36
Speaker
Or, maybe, if he sees me, he'll do my guest on the podcast.
00:05:43
Speaker
So, that's why, because, of course, everyone, we're a consumer, we're a customer.

Stay Connected and Updated

00:05:48
Speaker
So, we have a feeling once we see our idol.
00:05:52
Speaker
Yes, fun girl.
00:05:55
Speaker
Yes, fun girl.
00:05:56
Speaker
We're a love.
