Summary

If you're publishing your B2B podcast like clockwork and still wondering why it isn't moving anything, the problem probably isn't your consistency. Publishing weekly feels responsible. It looks good internally. It gives the team something to point at. But you can be extremely consistent at doing the wrong thing. I'm Neal Veglio , Founder and Director of the UK based podcast agency Podknows Podcasting and in this episode of B2B Podcasting Insights I'm breaking down why "consistency is key" has become one of the most over-sold ideas in B2B podcasting — and why ramping up your output is usually the opposite of what a struggling show needs. We look at why a shop that can't sell its products doesn't fix things by extending its opening hours, why the podcasting industry keeps selling production fixes for what are really strategy problems, what Dan Carlin's Hardcore History reveals about publishing on your own terms, and why intent — not frequency — has always been the deciding variable. There's also a set of questions you can run on your own show to find out whether it's doing a real commercial job or just quietly building a bigger back catalogue that still doesn't sell.
