Thinking about launching your own podcast, but not sure where to start? Grab our free Podcast Launch Checklist here: https://witandwire.com/download-podcast-launch-checklist?video=kfpXHa3YuzA DESCRIPTION: What should you include in your podcast artwork, and how can you create something professional if you aren't a graphic designer? Your podcast artwork is the square image that listeners see in Apple, Spotify, or their favorite listening app. It’s a huge piece of your podcast’s first impression on new listeners, and if you don’t have a strong podcast graphic, you’ll risk losing listeners before they even have a chance to hit play. That’s why today, I’m so excited to share tips to help you design eye-catching podcast artwork that attracts your ideal listeners without breaking Apple’s strict guidelines. And after we run through some do’s and don’ts, I’ll bring you into a blank Canva project to show you step-by-step how you can create your own graphic, even if you have zero design experience.
