Audiogram Best Practices for Podcasters
Creating an audiogram is easy. Creating one that actually gets people to stop scrolling, watch, and listen? That takes a bit of strategy.
At Jellypod, we’ve seen what works. The best-performing audiograms aren’t flashy—they’re clear, intentional, and on-brand. Whether you're just starting out or looking to level up, these tips will help your audiograms drive real engagement and bring more listeners to your show.
1. Start With a Strong Hook
An audiogram is like a trailer for your podcast. You want to lead with your most compelling moment—not the intro or a slow build.
Look for:
- A moment of surprise
- A powerful or emotional quote
- A question that sparks curiosity
- A bold or funny statement
With Jellypod, you can edit your script before generating the video—so it’s easy to fine-tune the message and make sure your best moment shines.
2. Keep It Under 60 Seconds
Shorter clips perform better on nearly every platform. Aim for 15–60 seconds to keep the energy high and make the content feel snackable.
You don’t need the whole story—just enough to make someone want the full episode.
3. Use Captions and Titles Strategically
While Jellypod doesn’t support full captioning yet, the on-screen title and layout still do a lot of heavy lifting.
Make sure:
- Your title clearly matches the moment
- Your logo or podcast name is visible
- Optional: Include a mini CTA like “Full episode in description”
Every second matters—so make the text count.
4. Customize Your Cover Image
Jellypod lets you upload your own artwork and will auto-style the background to match. It’s one of the simplest ways to make your audiogram feel polished without extra design effort.
Just a quick image upload can instantly level up the look of your post.
5. Stay Consistent With Branding
Every audiogram you share is a brand impression. Use the same colors, fonts, and layout style across episodes so your content becomes instantly recognizable.
Over time, your audience will start to associate the look and feel with your show—before they even hit play.
6. End With a Clear Call-to-Action
Don’t leave your viewer wondering what to do next. End with something specific like:
- “Listen to the full episode on Spotify.”
- “Search ‘[Your Podcast Name]’ wherever you get your podcasts.”
- “Watch the full episode at Jellypod.ai.”
You can easily add this kind of CTA inside Jellypod’s description editor while customizing your audiogram.
Final Thoughts
The difference between an audiogram that gets ignored and one that gets shared often comes down to execution.
Jellypod takes care of the hard parts—writing, voicing, rendering. But how you package and share that content is where great audiograms are made.
Keep it short. Make it visual. Stay on brand. And always point your viewer to what’s next.
