Episode description

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:

  1. Posting and showing up consistently on your own social media
  2. Research the podcast
  3. Send examples of past podcasts or long form content you have done
  4. Are you an expert in what it is you do? Share info on yourself, why you are beneficial to their podcast
  5. Pitch to be on a podcast that is going to be beneficial for you and not just the host
  6. Make sure you follow up if you don’t get a response
