However, the essential part of the show is the main content, the topic the show is discussing but how do you know if people will find interest in your show when the podcast starts with nothing but the main content which doesn’t leave a clue about where the podcast leading.
The intro is all about telling your listeners what the show is all about to hook them to listen to it and make them believe that it will lead them somewhere. And the outro is all about telling your listeners, what you are coming up with next, to make them follow your channel.

The essences of a good intro
The intro, where you talk about the show and give a brief of what your listeners are going to listen to, makes the first impression.

Moreover, the new listeners need the first impression, a good intro is mandatory if you want them to listen to it.
For the good, add an intro. It’s not specified to anyone that what an intro should consist of. Add words according to your will, show your creativity, and make it what other podcasts don’t have.
However, there are some things that should be added in an intro as a suggestion, the somethings that pull up an impact.
- Put a bit of pressure on the name of the podcast to let your listeners remind what they are listening to.
- Speak up your name, the name of the narrator.

The end of a podcast: The outro
The outro comes at the end of a podcast and is mandatory to leave an impact. You have done great with the intro and main content and now you need to think about how I am going to end the podcast. The outro is something that works in mounting the list of subscribers.
With an outro, you can thank your listeners for listening, can tell them about your upcoming events, and lead them to the theme of your podcast again. You can ask for a rating or review or can ask them to subscribe to your channel as well. You should know that your outro is for those who make it to the last and will enjoy the show.
