Only 1 in 4 Podcasts Use Video — Yet Those That Do Grow Faster | Ep 86
Episode 86
Thursday, 12 February, 2026
Video podcasting, financial professionals, podcast growth strategy, podcast discoverability, video marketing for advisors. Only 25% of podcasters are using video, yet those shows consistently grow faster, build trust sooner, and create stronger audience connection. This episode breaks down why video matters now, how financial professionals can adopt it without overwhelm, and what the data tells us about visibility, authority, and sustainable growth. If you’ve been unsure whether video is worth the time, cost, or learning curve, this conversation will help you decide how to use video strategically — without turning your podcast into a second full-time job. Why Video Accelerates Trust, Visibility, and Authority Video isn’t about chasing algorithms — it’s about human connection. For financial professionals, seeing your expressions, confidence, and credibility builds trust long before someone ever books a call. In this episode, I walk through: Why platforms like YouTube, LinkedIn, and Instagram actively reward video How video shortens the “trust runway” for service-based businesses Why adding video doesn’t require studio lighting or a production team You’ll also hear real examples of how video podcasting has helped financial and insurance professionals attract conversations offline — in offices, gyms, and everyday life. How Video Multiplies Podcast Discoverability Adding video doesn’t just create another format — it creates multiple entry points for your content. One episode becomes many ways for the right listener to find you. Find out: How YouTube, Google, and social platforms scan video titles, captions, and transcripts Why short-form video dramatically expands reach beyond your existing audience How repurposing video clips fuels email, social, and website traffic You’ll hear how shows like The Vital Strategies Podcast and Insurance Agency Success use video clips to drive discovery from external sources like email, social media, and websites — not just podcast apps. Low-Lift Ways to Add Video Without Overwhelm If the idea of being on camera makes you cringe, this episode gives you permission to start small. I cover three beginner-friendly approaches: Recording remote interviews with high-quality audio and video Using audiograms or motion graphics instead of full on-camera clips Creating short, video-only touchpoints between podcast episodes These options allow you to build visibility and trust without changing how you already record. The Real Power of Video: Repurposing Once video exists, your content starts working harder for you. One episode can become: A full YouTube video Multiple short-form clips for LinkedIn and Instagram Website content pulled from show notes Emails that educate and nurture your list I also share how my team at Podcast Abundance supports financial professionals with done-for-you podcast production and strategic social media repurposing — so your content actually stops the scroll instead of announcing, “New episode out today.” Key Moments to Listen For (00:02:18) Why video builds trust faster (00:03:05) YouTube shorts driving discovery (00:04:06) How repurposing affects reach (00:05:07) Discoverability from external sources (00:06:24) 3 Low-lift ways to incorporate video into your workflow (00:08:20) Endless repurposing ideas once you record video (00:09:04) Done-for-you videos for social media Action Steps for Financial Professionals If you want your podcast to grow without adding chaos to your calendar, start here: Add video strategically, not perfectly — clips on social mesia count!
