Try These 6 Compelling & Shareable Content Frameworks

Author: Alitu via The Podcast Host January 16, 2025 Duration: 10:43

A quickfire episode running through the following content frameworks, with examples and exercises on how to apply them in your own podcast.

Lists: Where you break things down into bite-sized, numbered pieces that are easy to skim and share. Use lists to highlight top picks, tips, or resources your audience will love.

Comparisons: Where you help people decide by putting two options head-to-head. Break down the pros and cons so your audience can make smarter, more confident choices.

Reviews: Where you share your honest opinion about a product, service, or experience. Show your audience what’s great, what’s not, and whether it’s worth their time or money.

Case Studies: Where you tell real-life stories to inspire or teach your audience. Dive into successes, challenges, or unique approaches that they can learn from or relate to.

Costs: Where you break down what things cost and whether they’re worth it. Help your audience understand where to spend, where to save, and what to expect financially.

How-Tos: Where you teach your audience how to do something step by step. Make it simple, clear, and actionable so they can achieve their goals with confidence.
