As a podcaster, consistency is important. But marketers get confused about what consistency means.Consistency doesn't mean each one of your podcast episodes has to be the same.

In this episode of Recorded Content, Tristan Pelligrino, the Co-Founder of Motion and host of the show, shares three personal highlights from the past year. The first highlight is about how he landed one of his dream podcast guests, Andrew Warner, the host of Mixergy, by finding a motivating moment and reaching out through Twitter. Tristan had always wanted to interview Andrew, and when he found out that Andrew had recently launched a book, he saw an opportunity to approach him for an interview. After a few Twitter direct messages, Andrew agreed to be a guest on Recorded Content.The second highlight is about the different format Tristan used for Recorded Content by repurposing interviews he did as a guest on other podcasts. Tristan enjoys being a guest on other podcasts and sharing his personal experiences and insights. However, the content of these interviews gets highlighted on someone else's show, rather than being a core part of Tristan's own podcast. To change this, Tristan re-edited several interviews he did as a guest and included different segments in episodes of Recorded Content. This allowed him to share his experiences and insights with his own audience and shape the content of his podcast.The third highlight is about conducting a series of interviews with a single guest to create a multi-part series. In most cases, companies book guests for a single interview and build an episode around that conversation. However, Tristan saw an opportunity to take a different approach and conduct a series of interviews with a single guest to create a multi-part series. This allowed him to delve deeper into the topic and have more in-depth conversations with his guest over a period of time.Throughout the episode, Tristan emphasizes the importance of being creative with podcast formats and trying new things. He encourages other podcasters to experiment with different approaches and formats and see what works best for their audience. By being open to new ideas and approaches, podcasters can create more engaging and informative content and keep their listeners coming back for more.
In this episode of The Anonymous Marketer, Nick Bennett shares a recent interview he did on Recorded Content.
