Why Having a Podcast Trailer is Important

Imagine your favorite movie or show not having a trailer. How are you supposed to know what the movie or show is about. Even more important, how are you supposed to know if you’ll even like the content.

The same goes for your podcast. Without having a podcast trailer your audience and potential listeners will have no pull or draw to listen to your podcast. Don’t get us wrong, plenty of shows do not have podcast trailers and thrive with downloads and listens- but, imagine the potential listeners your show would grab with giving them a taste of your show.

The trailer is a chance for you to show off your personality, show topics, show guests, and tease your audience enough to get them to stick around for your full shows.

Where to Start?

Writing and recording your trailer does not need to be difficult- think short and simple when you are working on your first trailer. Since you have already written your podcast description, and your podcast music , your show purpose and goal is ready to be conveyed on the airwaves!

The best way to record your trailer is to just sit down and do it. Sit down with an outline of what you’d like to say and record. Here are a few examples of an SB Studios Podcast Trailers:

You can see that these four trailers are all very different. Don’t worry about how short or long your trailer may be, the most important thing is that you have a quality and authentic one!
