Diversity Podcasts
People are getting serious about diversity and inclusion in marketing. For content marketing to be successful, it has to be like a mirror and that mirror has to increasingly reflect people who make up society. Podcasting is no exception. Podcasts allow brands to communicate with their audience effectively. They can also be platforms that can advocate for change, empower and inform.
Importance of representation
When podcasts are developed as content, they should also make sure that they should be a platform where every voice can be heard. If they do so, they can reach diverse groups of audiences. This can be a positive change that can address unconscious biases that exclude minority audiences. Including diverse voices would also result in expanding into new markets and unlocking new listeners.
