Sharing From the Buzzsprout App

You've created amazing content, and we want to make it as easy as possible for you to share it on the go!  From the Buzzsprout app, you can promote your episodes, achievements, and Visual Soundbites on various platforms— including Instagram stories. Let's walk through the options!

Share Episodes from the Buzzsprout App

  1. Find the episode on the Episodes tab of your Buzzsprout app.
  2. Once you click into the episode, click the icon with three dots in the top right of your screen. 
  3. From that drop-down menu, select Share.  
You can send the episode directly through text or email. Or, you'll have the option to copy the episode link so you can promote the show anywhere you'd like. And that's it! Your podcast just reached another potential listener! CleanShot 2025-01-30 at 15.26.21@2x.png

Share Episodes to Instagram Stories

One of the best ways to share your content with a whole platform of listeners is through social media. Instagram Stories stay live for 24 hours— perfect for sharing new episodes right as they drop! We'll create a Story template for you, featuring your artwork, episode title, and podcast name. Then, in Instagram, further customize it with stickers, filters, and backgrounds!

Here's how: 
  1. In the Buzzsprout app, click the Episodes page and choose the episode you'd like to share.
  2. At the top right, tap the icon with three dots to open the drop-down menu.
  3. Select Share to Stories.
This will launch the Instagram app, where you can customize and share the episode directly to your stories! CleanShot 2025-01-30 at 15.19.59@2x.png Pro Tip: Include a link to drive traffic directly to your episode! 
  1.  In your Instagram App, find the sticker icon, and select the Link sticker from the options. 
  2. Next, head back to the Buzzsprout app and click Copy URL.
  3. Head back to Instagram and paste your copied episode URL into the link you're creating. 
  4. Click Done and customize the look of the link to match your artwork! 
Now, you'll have a clickable link that will take listeners directly to your episode! 

Share Visual Soundbites

A great tool for promoting your show is our Visual Soundbites feature. After creating the Soundbite in Buzzsprout on your computer, you can access and share them from your Buzzsprout app. Within an episode, you'll see a preview of the created Soundbite along with a "Share" button. From there, send it via text or email!  CleanShot 2025-01-30 at 15.21.03@2x.png Pro tip: Social Media and our Visual Soundbites make a perfect pairing! Download the Soundbite to your phone and upload it to a social media platform to promote it to your audience.
