If you plan to produce your own podcast, recording equipment is relatively cheap and lasts a long time. Since you are already an expert in your field, you just need a little time to sit down and record your insights.
Networking
You can invite other industry partners and influential people to join you on your podcast for a conversation. This generates interest and widens your audience. And gives you a chance to meet other players in your field.
