how to turn clip audio and make podcast videos to promote on social media

Newsflash: Podcasting is officially blowing up. According to this article from Fast Company, there are now over 525,000 active podcasts and over 18.5 million episodes. More and more businesses are also joining in on the action as podcasting continues to cement its place as a staple strategy for content marketing. 

If you are a content creator making a podcast, you may realize that with so many shows in production, it’s has become essential to have creative & visual ways to promote your podcast online (especially on social media).

Creating podcast videos from clips of your show is one of the best ways to expose social media followers to your content and create more engagement around your podcast. Take a look at this podcast video example on Instagram that Rosie Acosta creates with Wavve for her podcast “Radically Loved“: 

As you can see in the post statistics, this podcast clip turned video generates a large amount of engagement with her followers. The video has almost 2,000 views, hundreds of likes, and multiple comments. While this post may or may not have resulted directly in podcast download clicks, it got almost 2,000 viewers on social media introduced to this podcast episode. 

Also, notice how the waveform animation (created with Wavve) helps the viewer understand there is audio included in the post.
