Hubspot is arguably one of the best content marketing brands online. And when we saw this drop in traffic, a lot of us thought they were done with.
But in reality, once again they're just ahead of the game.
Hubspot saw this drop coming, and diversified away from "just" blog content into podcasting and YouTube years ago....starting with their acquisition of The Hustle.
Lesson for all of us: a video-first content strategy, highly correlated to your expertise, personal experience, and industry is a recipe for success.
Trying to chase random AI-generated content and topics is going to sink you.

It's mic comparison day. Shooting 2 different videos comparing:
- ATR2100x
- Samson Q2U
- Shure MV7+
Loving all of them, but have a clear winner IMHO.

Are you uploading your podcast to YouTube?
If you're a Castos customer, you can enable the automatic YouTube republishing feature to send your episodes directly to a playlist. This is a great way to easily get more distribution and connection to your audience. YouTube was slow to roll out "real" podcasting features over 2022 -- what do you think 2023 will bring?

Our latest video explores podcast intros.
We break down how our podcast, Audience, uses a scripted monologue to build a story around a story.
It’s not for everyone. It takes more time, writing, critical thinking and editing. But it could make all the difference for shows that need a more creative spark for their audience. It allows you to stand out, especially if you’re in a crowded podcast category. And let’s face it, who isn’t?
Let us know what you do differently in your podcast!

I created an OpenAI ChatGPT account to experiment with the accuracy of their model. I asked it 7 questions to launching a podcast, and most of the answers were pretty spot on. Not just templates listicle response, but with some nuance for each context. What do you think about AI for podcasting?
