What Makes a Good Podcast Outro?

Quick Daily Podcasting Tips by Alitu

Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re asking the question “what makes a good podcast outro?”. The final minute or two of your episode goes towards creating a lasting impression in the mind of your listener. You might have done a great job with the intro and main content. But if the show ends poorly, this can be the difference between a new listener hitting subscribe or not. The job of the outro is essentially to thank the listener for their time. Then, point them in the direction of any vital resources mentioned in the episode. It’s also the part where you can ask for something in return. If a listener has stayed to the end they’ve probably enjoyed the episode, so they might be more willing to respond to your request for something like a rating, review, or even a sale.
