The year 2020 is going to be big for the podcast industry. The rise in the number of podcast listeners has been on the rise, not just in the United States but all over the world.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n The space is tight, but the positive outlook is that it\u2019s still open for everyone. While it is a great time to be a consumer, it\u2019s also the perfect moment to be a creator.<\/span><\/p>\n Smartphone users make up the largest percentage of podcast listeners, and they mostly lie in the age group of 18-44. With such a wide group of audiences, there are podcasts on every topic out there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n From something as microscopic as a cell to something as large as our universe. If you have good content, you will always have listeners.<\/span><\/p>\n Some of the most liked categories of podcasts are sports, technology, comedy, and music. However, as podcasts evolve and creators get more experimental, a lot of successful podcasts are beginning to fall under more than one genre. For instance, sports-comedy or sports-technology are categories you can easily find.<\/span><\/p>\n There are a few important points that make a podcast successful. While some of the points are common for all podcasts in general, some are specific to a sports podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n First things first, this is the year 2020, and the bar is set quite high. You cannot just pick up an old microphone and set up your podcast. You need to be meticulous with your actions and make sure that saving some pennies will not jeopardize your podcast.<\/span><\/p>\n Nobody would like to hear a hazy voice, so investing in a good set of microphones is a good idea. Make a title track and a definite introduction. Authenticity is important because there are a lot of other free options, and you need to stand out.<\/span><\/p>\n A regular podcast is something that appeals to the audience. At the end of every podcast, let your listeners know what they can expect in the next one, keep their hopes high and deliver on it. It\u2019s the best way to win hearts and subscribers too.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n While a general sports podcast covering a range of topics sounds nice, it will only saturate the arena with just more casual stuff that people can read on the headlines. You need to find a specific niche for yourself and focus on something you are passionate about.<\/span><\/p>\n It is sometimes better to be a master of one than a jack of all. You might think this is sharply going to reduce the size of your audience, but don\u2019t worry about that. A thousand people who listen to you are better than a billion who don\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n A niche will help you set authority in the topic, and that will make your podcast genuine and give it immunity from the increasing competition in the segment.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This statement has never been more true. When it comes to podcasts, the content is actually the king, and you have just one way of keeping the listeners entertained. Dig out facts and research thoroughly before setting out your content.<\/span><\/p>\n Everyone loves surprises and new information, entertain them with something unusual, and they are going to stick for more! The more effort you put in creating the content, the more fruitful it will prove to be. Most importantly, keep it short and informative.<\/span><\/p>\n Your content is what will help you get sponsors for your podcast as well. That\u2019s how your podcast is going to grow. Make sure to make subtle pitches and not sound like an advertisement.<\/span><\/p>\n People who regularly listen to podcasts are more likely to be digital consumers who don\u2019t watch a lot of TV. Leveraging this fact and bringing new products through your sponsors that they might be interested in can work wonders.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Every time someone listens to a sports podcast, their expectations are more than just to hear the latest news in sports. They want to listen to opinions from experts, enthusiasts, and the host. This is your chance to collaborate and grow your channel.<\/span><\/p>\n Call on a fellow creator to your show and have a friendly debate with them. This way, your listeners have the opportunity to listen to different angles of the same story. As their host, they might know what you think about it, but debate can clear a lot of things out.<\/span><\/p>\nLet\u2019s take a look at the elements that make a sports podcast successful in 2020.<\/b><\/h2>\n
1. Professionalism is key<\/b><\/h3>\n
2. Focus on a Niche<\/b><\/h3>\n
3. Content is King<\/b><\/h3>\n
4. Interviews and Debates<\/b><\/h3>\n
