Early Findings
B2B Company Podcasts Insights
B2B companies
create their own branded podcasts as this medium can help in making their brand known to consumers.
Podcasting
is also a way for B2B firms to position themselves as thought leaders in their industries.
Producing
well-thought-out and useful content
can also enable brands to stand out from their peers.
Branded podcasts
with valuable content can also entice listeners to establish a relationship with the brand.
B2B companies also start their own podcasts if their
competitors are also producing one
. This is to ensure that they are ahead of these competitors in the minds of their consumers.
B2B brands also
get into podcasting
if most of their clients are business leaders who have a habit of listening to podcasts while commuting or exercising.
For
IBM
, its main purpose in producing its IBM Cloud podcast is to train sellers and partners on the new features of their products.
The company also worked on improving its podcast to include
engaging content
that can cater to the interest of its listeners.
The
Dell Luminaries
podcast is considered to be one example of a B2B podcast that showcases the brand's thought leadership.
For every podcast episode, the company
invites guests with valuable
and interesting ideas to present to the listeners.
Some of these
guests are Dell employees
who are experts in their field.
Dell's podcasts
also feature influential business owners and corporate leaders in the tech sector.
SAP also launched its "
Customer Support Podcast
."
The podcast broadcasts
quotes from a variety
of internal and external experts.
