How to turn these into posts that convert
Post daily slideshows with one key clip or quote per slide. Use a hook slide that states the benefit or controversy. Avoid generic episode announcements. Instead, focus on a single insight that solves a listener pain. Test posting at 5pm your time zone when commute listening peaks. Never post just a screenshot of your episode art it gets ignored.
Timing: Post once daily at 5pm local time for higher engagement during commute hours.
