Why are we doing this?
Our InnovaBuzz Podcast is a compilation of audio/video file interviews of innovative leaders throughout the world who share their experiences in their field and educate their audience about all things regarding innovation and leadership. 
While outstanding episode content should be the focus of your podcast, your header image is the first thing your audience and listeners will see. It is vital to present an attractive header that will catch the eye of new listeners. New listeners can be attracted to your service through the style of headers or images you make. You don’t only want your listeners and followers to love the quality of your podcast content but you also want to grab their attention with your artwork. 
The consistency of header images can also help people identify and remember your podcast so it is always good to have a folder on Canva or whatever site you are using and compile the images so you can use consistent imagery across all of your podcast headers. Another reason we are putting in the effort to make an attention-grabbing header image is so that we can visually communicate the subject of the podcast. The audience will want to see the title and the service of the guests before they listen to it.

What You Will Need

To complete the process of creating beautiful graphics, you will need access to:
Google Images (a copy of 800 x 800 px guest photo sent through email)

Look for the folder/file where the saved header image is that Jurgen has used for previous podcasts.

Most business owners avoid documenting their core business processes (even though they’re key to building a business that works without them) so we decided to do if for them. We interview industry experts and have them share their best small business systems and processes. Our team then converts those interviews into procedure templates that you can duplicated, customised and deployed within your business. 

It’s the quickest, easiest and efficient way to build a systemised business.
