Show Notes
Today’s episode is all about how to pitch yourself as a guest on podcasts. I’ve been asked about this a ton in my DMs, so I share my experience of being a guest on other podcasts and the benefits of exposing myself to new audiences. Positioning your business in a place that allows you to be seen for months and years to come in podcasts episodes can make a huge impact. I also share six tips on how to pitch yourself. In sharing these tips, I use both the perspective of pitching myself and being pitched to by others wanting to be a guest on Radical Disruption.
I walk through the different reasons I believe being a podcast guest is so powerful:
- Expand your reach
- Networking opportunities
- Credibility and authority
- Brand exposure
- Learning experience
- Thought leadership
- Engaging with potential fans and community
- Collaboration
Six tips on how to pitch yourself:
- Posting and showing up consistently on your own social media
- Research the podcast
- Send examples of past podcasts or long form content you have done
- Are you an expert in what it is you do? Share info on yourself, why you are beneficial to their podcast
- Pitch to be on a podcast that is going to be beneficial for you and not just the host
- Make sure you follow up if you don’t get a response
