V= Voicemail. Depending on your topic why not play snippets from your podcast on your voicemail. Especially for small companies it gives an insight into your work, or can entertain people while they are waiting for their call to be taken. Clearly you would need to change the snippets or give a variety to ensure that people do not get bored with the message. I would also suggest that you don’t use long snippets…even the intro to your show with a link to where they can hear more…

It is about using every piece of communication to reach out to people.
