Summary: This article will help you learn how to increase your reach and audience with social audio apps like Clubhouse and Wisdom. 

As social entrepreneurs, reaching more people with our message is very important. Making sure you are not the best-kept secret is a vital strategy to keep your business or nonprofit solvent. 

However, it’s hard for social entrepreneurs to access information about how to use technology and online platforms to grow their audience and reach. The information about how use social audio to get people invested in social causes is simply not available. 

This article attempts to bridge the gap between social audio and social impact. Unfortunately, social audio platforms do not currently have ways to filter for social impact-related work. That means platforms like Wisdom and Clubhouse have the opportunity to create meaningful change by making it easier for creators to share their impact and connect with like-hearted people. 

What is Social Audio? 

Social audio platforms help you connect with people you’d likely never meet in person or on any other platform. That’s why social audio is a powerful tool to grow your reach and connect with others who care about the things you care about. 

Social audio platforms all work slightly differently but they all offer a way for you to connect with others by sharing your content via essentially, a conference call. 

If you’ve used a conference line in a past job, you’ll be a pro at social audio. 

Social audio platforms have you share as a solo creator who can interact with on person or a group of people. You can also develop collaborations and connections with other creators to grow your audience. 

Some social audio platforms allow you to record audio while others include a video stream mixed with social audio features.

Align Your Keywords With Your Social Audio Keywords

This is my #1 social audio pro tip- make sure your keyword strategy for your website is mapped to your social audio and social media content as well. This means you need to do some research on what keywords are working for you and how you can leverage them on other platforms. Use your keywords in social audio room titles, descriptions, club names, and bio.

By doing this, your audience consistently knows who you are and what you’re about. You also make yourself searchable using the same keywords on every platform.

Create a Kick-ass Bio

Your bio is where people get to know you and what you’re about. Having a kick-ass bio means you are clearly telling people what you help with, what benefits there are to working with you, and who you are. You can even do it in that order and you will generate a lot of interest from the people you run into. 

Connect with like-minded and like-hearted people

Social audio offers the opportunity to connect with people in a way that other social media platforms do not. You can easily connect with people who share your values or learn from others who know about things you don’t know. 

The important part of social audio is connecting and following people who are going to lead you to more interesting and worthwhile conversations in the future. That means you need to follow people you actually want to talk to or hear from in the future. 

Unless of course, you’re one of those people who just likes to stir up trouble on the internet. In that case, feel free to follow a bunch of people you are going to loathe talking to in the future. However, that strategy won’t lead you to grow your reach with social audio. 

Connecting with like-minded and like-hearted people is something that we’ve developed in the Social Impact Level Up Club as a motto to follow so you meet amazing people doing amazing things. When we connect with others who are on the same vibe as us, we are more likely to bring abundance to ourselves and others.

Use Your Social Audio Replays and Recordings on Other Platforms

Many social audio platforms allow you to download your recorded conversations and use them for other purposes. This is a great way for you to quickly grow you content bank while saving yourself time and effort to increase your reach. 

Clubhouse, Fireside, and Wisdom are great apps for this purpose. You can take your social audio recordings from these platforms and use them for your website, blog, vlog, Instagram, Pinterest… basically everywhere. 

You will need to maintain this library off the app in addition to cultivating the feed on your profile. For example, if you want something to be exclusive content for your audience only after the first time you record it live… you will need to save the audio off the app and delete the on-app replay. This will allow you to keep your content for your paying clients or those you deem worthy.

Create Spaces Not Conversations

Social audio is about the experience. When it first revolutionized hte social media landscape, the big deal was that you had to be in the conversation live to know it happened. 

Now with the ability to record, that’s less of a draw but it is difficult to find content once it is no longer happening live. 

That’s why it’s important for you to create spaces where people can connect to each other and mutually benefit. A conversation will only last so long. Creating ways for people to engage with each other and the things they like will get you noticed and greatly increase your reach. 

You do that by focusing on the topics you want to discuss, getting good at facilitating conversations, and holding space for the connections to take place. 

Growing your reach with social audio can be easy if people recognize you as someone they enjoy talking to and like how you hold your spaces.
