Using Podcasting to Grow Your Practice

Presented by Melvin Varghese, PhD on 03-28-2016 at 9 a.m. Pacific (noon Eastern) to 10:30 a.m. Pacific (1:30 p.m. Eastern)

Podcasts are rapidly replacing traditional radio for many people. Podcast listenership has tripled in the last five years from 25 million to 75 million listeners, and will surpass one billion annual downloads this year. Google recently joined iTunes (and their 800 million users) in announcing the support of podcasts for its 1.1 billion Android users. One third of the world (or 2.56 billion people) will have access to smartphones that can access podcasts by 2018.

Podcasting offers a unique platform for practicing clinicians to showcase their strengths and connect with others. During this marketing webinar, Dr. Melvin Varghese will discuss how podcasting allows mental health professionals to become an authority within their specialties, build relationships with colleagues all around the world, generate referrals, and create new streams of income.

This webinar is designed for clinicians interested in starting or improving upon an existing podcast and will help clinicians:

  1. Learn how to record a quality podcast from the comfort of one's home or office, using budget friendly equipment.
  2. Edit podcast episodes without overwhelm.
  3. Identify strategies to get one's podcast in front of a large audience.
  4. List five "out of the box" ways to create income through podcasting.
