Episode description
Are you tired of sifting through endless spammy guest requests for your podcast? 🙄 It's time to flip the script and get strategic about your interview game! In this eye-opening episode, I'm sharing my foolproof method for finding and booking guests that will actually help grow your show. No more random interviews that go nowhere – we're talking about building genuine relationships that lead to powerful collaborations. Here's what you'll discover:
- • Why my "invite first" strategy crushes those cringe-worthy cold emails 📧.
- • The four essential checkboxes every potential guest must tick (hint: being "famous" isn't one of them).
- • How to mine the podcast charts for hidden gems that align perfectly with your show.
- • Smart onboarding questions that set the stage for future partnerships.
- • The embarrassing guest pitch I received while still recording (and why it was a total disaster).
- • Post-interview goals that turn a single conversation into a goldmine of opportunities.
- • Why I'm challenging my own "two-thirds content rule" and how it might benefit you too.
