Show Notes
My guest today needs no introduction. In fact, he’d probably prefer it that way.
Sure he’s in the Podcast Hall of Fame, runs serval successful podcasts, has helped countless podcasters get their start with his company School of Podcasting, and is pretty much a legend in the space but as you will see he is an advocate for getting into what he calls the “meat and potatoes” — meaning lead with value, not a long introduction.
Here are some highlights from the show:
- Common mistakes with Intros that create a bad first impression
- Things that make him throw up in his mouth (just a little bit)
- Interviewing strategies
- How to get real feedback, not "mom feedback"
- How to “fan the flames” and personally connect with your audience
- Ideas for monetization
- Lighting round to get a snapshot into his favorite tools and platforms
