Jump straight into:

(00:50) - The rise of podcasting in the B2B field - “We’re starting to hear a lot more companies interested in translating their written content into podcasts, and multimedia is something that companies are starting to come around to.”

(20:04) - Key points to structure a script for an engaging narrated podcast - “You want to make sure the guest is heard, you don’t want to overuse the narrator and vice versa.”

(24:04) - The value of podcasting for companies to grow their network and brand’s presence  - “Your story doesn’t have to be a hero's journey, it can just be a really smart person who’s an expert in a specific area that hundreds, maybe thousands of listeners will want to hear from.”
