Podcasts thrive on connection. The stronger your bond with listeners, the more they return, share, and engage. With Voicebox, you can turn passive listeners into active participants by giving them an easy way to speak back, literally. Here’s how to set up and use Voicebox to capture authentic listener feedback and bring it directly into your show.

1. Set up your Voicebox

• Sign up at aliceapp.ai and create your personalized Voicebox.
• Generate a Voicebox link (e.g. vbx.to/podcastname) or embed a widget for listener feedback.
• Customize your prompt with a specific question such as “What are your thoughts on today’s topic?” or “Agree or disagree? Let us know!”

2. Add Voicebox links everywhere listeners look

• Podcast description and show notes: Include your Voicebox link in every episode.
• Website and social bios: Make it easy for listeners to find and use.
• Thumbnails: Add a call-to-action such as “Leave your thoughts → vbx.to/podcastname”. Use a mic icon, bold text, and a short URL. For maximum impact, include a QR code for instant access.

3. Use Voicebox during your episodes

• Intro (first 60 seconds): Mention Voicebox directly. Example: “Tell us your thoughts, link in the description!”
• Mid-episode: Insert prompts during topic changes, e.g. “Would you have done the same?” Overlay a link or QR code on-screen if you have a video podcast.
• Play listener voice clips: Showcase real feedback to introduce new segments or answer questions.

4. Close strong with a call-to-action

In your outro, invite participation again:

• Say “Send your voice and get featured → vbx.to/podcastname”
• Overlay a final screen with your Voicebox link, QR code, and a fun teaser like “You could be in next week’s episode!”

5. Enhance the experience

• Create custom QR codes for screens or promotional materials.
• Visualize listener clips with waveform animations (using Descript, Canva, or After Effects).
• Sync Voicebox with Slack, Notion, or Drive to organize and share listener feedback.
• Track insights in the Voicebox dashboard to see themes, sentiment, and trending topics.

Why this works

Traditional feedback tools feel like work. Voicebox makes sharing as simple as talking. By embedding it throughout your podcast ecosystem, you turn feedback into part of the show itself—making your listeners feel heard, valued, and excited to contribute.
