Podcasting with Eman Ismail, host of Mistakes That Made Me

Podcasting with Zuri Berry

06/12/23 • 28 min

This episode is different. I wanted to talk with someone I’ve worked with who has had a successful podcast launch, who is podcasting to build their brand authority, and who is focused on storytelling, which is at the heart of everything that I do here at ZMC.

So, naturally, I started talking with Eman Ismail. She is an expert copywriter and email strategist, and the host of Mistakes That Made Me, which I produce and edit.

In this episode, we walk through how she landed on the concept of her show, the most difficult part about podcasting, how the podcast has impacted her business and advice she has for anyone who wants to start a podcast.

Podcasting with Zuri Berry

12/04/22 • 13 min

The easiest way to edit a podcast for audio storytellers is by simplifying your storytelling devices, music, and tools. But simple isn’t always good, and in fact, it can be quite boring. So, the only way to easily produce a great podcast is by using a storytelling framework and process that you can duplicate.

This month, I walk through what you should consider in your storytelling framework and your production process to help make creating a great podcast as seamless as possible.

A recent Morning Consult survey showed that 46% of active podcast listeners prefer consuming podcasts with video. Only 42% wanted audio-only podcasts.

The reason? 51% said they wanted to see the reactions of the host and guest, and 50% of their survey respondents indicated that video helps them better focus on the podcast.

This new data demonstrates that video podcasts help your engagement efforts. And there are several more benefits to using a video-first podcasting strategy that make that clear. Listen to the episode to understand why.
