BY FAST COMPANY EXECUTIVE BOARD

Whether they’re business-focused, educational, or just for entertainment, podcasts have become one of the most popular content mediums in recent years. Businesses can leverage the podcast format to connect with their customers in new and exciting ways, but it has to be done well.

There are already many popular podcasts out there, so your brand must be able to differentiate itself from the rest. Below, 14 Fast Company Executive Board leaders share their best tips for launching a successful podcast to increase brand exposure.
