Ep 30: Podcasts vs YouTube: Which Platform is Better to Grow Your Brand?

In this episode, we explore the pros and cons of podcasting and YouTube as platforms for growing your brand.

We discuss the advantages of YouTube, such as increased brand visibility and being owned by Google, while podcasts can solidify your reputation as an expert and reach a wider audience.

We also discuss variables like user base, engagement, visibility, time consumption, competition, the barrier to entry, and the versatility of the medium when considering which platform to choose. Additionally, we emphasise the importance of finding a workflow and content strategy that aligns with your brand’s vision and suggests combining both platforms effectively by creating a video for YouTube and using the audio on podcast directories.
