Podcasts are having a major moment. With over 464 million listeners worldwide in 2023 and projected growth to nearly 505 million by the end of 2024, podcasts are no longer a niche medium—they’re mainstream. Everyone, from celebrities to CEOs to presidential candidates, is leveraging the format to connect with audiences on a deeper level. So why aren’t more capital raisers jumping on this trend? For capital raisers, a podcast isn’t just a storytelling tool—it’s a trust-building machine. Here’s why podcasts should be a core part of your strategy, how you’re missing out by skipping this medium, and how RaiseCast can get you up and running in days, not weeks.

The Podcast Boom: Why Investors Are Listening
Podcasting has become one of the fastest-growing mediums globally, with recent stats showcasing its power: 73% of Americans over age 12 have listened to a podcast, and 91% of podcast listeners finish most or all of a podcast episode.The average listener spends 8 hours per week on podcasts, with many tuning in while commuting, exercising, or relaxing.Podcasts drive brand recall and trust—listeners feel a stronger connection to hosts than to traditional advertising.When even presidential candidates are taking to podcasts like The Joe Rogan Experience and Pod Save America to reach audiences, it’s clear that this format is a powerful way to command attention and build trust.

Why Podcasts Are a Perfect Fit for Capital Raisers
Capital raising is all about connection and trust—and podcasts excel at both.

Here’s how:

Tell Your Story Like Never Before
A podcast gives you the chance to go beyond pitch decks and press releases. You can dive deep into your company’s mission, market opportunity, and vision for the future, all while building an emotional connection with listeners.

Reach Investors Where They Are
Investors are busy. Podcasts meet them during their downtime—whether they’re stuck in traffic, hitting the treadmill, or winding down at the end of the day.

Build Authority and Credibility
A well-produced podcast positions you as an industry thought leader. It’s a way to showcase your expertise while answering the questions potential investors have in an engaging format.
