What can we assume about our audience?

As much as this audience aspect might look complex to you, it can be simplified and jotted down to one simple sentence. All they want is good relatable content.

Furthermore, it is up to you on how you deliver these wants while being in your comfort zone.

So try to give them what they really want in an entertaining way.

Targeting podcast audience based on content

We understand that you must feel really afraid to jump right in, so let us help you here. It is recommended you understand what the people want and create your content based on that knowledge.

For example, you could use different platforms and forums which helps you determine what is the current hot topic, and what the audience is looking for at this particular time.

To follow that up with a scenario. Imagine that you are a chef and have so many recipes up your sleeve that you do not know where to start.

So divide your expertise into categories such as easy to cook meals, fusion meals, etc.                                              Know your audience

Now, based on your category think who would be the appropriate audience. In the “easy to cook” category, you could target working professionals, busy moms, etc.                                                   Know your audience

So based on your expertise, channelize your content to the right audience.
