Ideas on how you can use your podcast to reach your goals:

Private feed just for your team / employees
Q&A: get users, customers, audience to leave you a voicemail. Answer 1 question per week.
Interview your customers: interview 1 customer per week. Ask them about their business, how they’re using your product.
Expert tips: if you’re a professional (lawyer, accountant, coach), give your listeners an actionable piece of advice every week. Give them one thing to improve every week.
Read your blog posts: already writing a blog post ever week? Just read it “audible” style for your audience.
Recycle your best talks / videos.
Conferences: give attendees a private feed of all the talks!
Share your journey.
