How to Make Your Podcast More Accessible with Meg Brunson

Accessibility is a big topic of conversation and an important one. As podcasters and business owners, our client and listener experiences should always be top of mind, but often we forget to include the needs of those that are differently abled or those who benefit from extra tools and accommodation. Meg Brunson is here today to guide us through a whole host of things we can do to make our podcasts and social media content more accessible across the board. This week, episode 104 of Listeners to Leads is about how to make your podcast more accessible! 

Online marketing authority and former Facebook employee Meg Brunson combines her mission to build a more accessible and inclusive world, with her expertise in the digital marketing space. After a decade of working within the Deaf and disabled communities and years of watching her kids face racism and transphobia first-hand, Meg has seen how the way we communicate can isolate, divide and harm historically marginalized groups.
