What matters most, is having a clear purpose for your podcast. Here are 5 reasons why a podcast might be a good idea to improve your Employer Branding and to grow your network!
A podcast geared towards employer branding can contribute to building your influence, help you grow your team, gives your staff a voice, and highlights what makes your brand special. The platform lets you connect with diverse audiences, including potential employees, guests, and partners, through engaging audio and video content. It’s also a content machine and you can get multiple content pieces out of one single episode.
There are plenty of positives about creating a podcast, but there is also a flipside, which includes the substantial work that goes into creating a podcast and the necessity for a big enough story to tell. While a podcast might not be for everyone, if done well, it can be a strong catalyst for your brand presence.
This quote by Lee Clow has made its way through the marketing world, and some of you have probably heard it before – it still holds immense power, perhaps more than ever. How we communicate shapes the way guests and fellow employees recognize our brands, especially in hospitality.
Ambience: Music in hotel lobbies, spas, and public areas enhances the guest experience by creating atmosphere and reinforcing brand identity through soundscapes and playlists.
Online Marketing: Whether in ads, social media, or influencer collaborations, the power of sound is undeniable: music and voiceovers add depth and emotion.
Podcasts: A familiar, likable voice helps transport the message and builds trust. This approach can humanize a brand, showcase its values, and highlight the passion behind its mission.
Waiting: Soothing or fun melodies on phone lines or in elevators turn wait times into an experience, keeping your customers cool, calm, and curious.
In-Room Experiences: Personalized playlists, branded radio stations, or immersive augmented reality in guest rooms offer a unique, branded experience.
Every sound is an opportunity to shape perception and create meaningful connections. Whether through curated music, engaging podcasts, or even the melodies on hold, owning the ear means owning the guest experience. The ear-to-mind connection is strong, so what are you doing to embrace it?
