Trailer tips
Trailers are ideal for increasing the discoverability of your show and gaining new fans by giving them a preview of what your show is all about.
Not sure what to include in your trailer?
- Introduce yourself. Your trailer is a chance to tell your story and attract new fans by sharing your passion and personality.
- Introduce your show. Give your listeners an overview so they know what to expect from your full-length episodes.
- Sell your strengths. Entice new fans and encourage them to commit to a longer episode by describing what makes your show special.
- Keep your trailer under one minute. Try to capture the message of your show as concisely as possible.
- Include a call-to-action. Encourage people to try out your show, follow you on Spotify, leave a 5-star review, or subscribe to your show.
