Notes on podcasting from the Seaplane team.
Who Is This Show Actually For?
A podcast built to serve two different audiences equally, in every episode, usually ends up serving neither one well. Pick a single, real audience to build for, and let everyone else benefit as a side effect of the show being good.
Podcast Production for Orchestras & Performing Arts Organizations
When creating a podcast for the performing arts, you usually start with one of three goals: lower the barrier to entry for new audiences, deepen the relationship with subscribers and donors who already show up, or support a specific milestone like a new season, a world tour, or anniversary. You can build toward all three eventually, but pick one to start. A show trying to do everything ends up doing nothing for anybody in particular.
