Ever wondered how podcasting could improve your public speaking skills? Join me, Melanie Surplice as I discuss why I think podcasting is the perfect outlet for Toastmasters - and why YOU should consider doing the Level 4 elective project, "Create a Podcast".
In this episode of a multi-part series about podcasting, we'll journey through the fascinating history of podcasting, tracing its evolution from the humble iPod days to becoming a mainstream global medium. You'll be amazed by the latest statistics on the podcasting landscape and its exponential growth. This episode promises to inspire you to see podcasting as a powerful tool for honing your communication abilities, whether you're a seasoned Toastmaster or just starting out.
We'll dive into the numbers showing the global podcasting market's explosive growth, from $18.5 billion in 2022 to a projected $130.6 billion by 2030.
Learn about the popular genres fuelling this growth, from comedy to true crime. We'll also explore the countless personal and professional development benefits of starting your own podcast - from enhanced communication skills, creativity in storytelling, personal branding and more.
Hear the stories of fellow podcasters and some of my previous guests who share how podcasting has dramatically improved their speaking skills, and how this could apply to you!
