Okay, so did you catch Episode 133 (Part One) with Caroline Hull and Brittney Lynn on Tuesday? We talked about the dos and don’ts of pitching and podcasting. Caroline and Brittney shared real stories, tips, and advice from their experience in the podcast world. If you missed it, definitely push pause and go back and listen to that episode first, because today we’re catching up right where we left off.
Today, Brittney, Caroline and I are sitting down to continue our conversation about podcasting. We’re talking about how to pitch yourself, how to prepare for a podcast interview, and how you can support the show when your episode airs!
ON TODAY’S EPISODE:
- Next steps after you’ve landed the interview
- The importance of following technical instructions
- How to maximize your messaging
- What to do the day of recording
- Why you should always share your experience
- Gratitude that goes a long way
- Tips so that everything goes smoothly
- Pep talk & positivity
KEY TAKE-AWAYS:
“If I send you the technical information, I would like you to follow it. There is a reason why I am asking you to wear headphones with a microphone, in a quiet room, please.” - Caroline Hull
“The last thing I want to do is say, "We can't use your episode because you weren't prepared." That's really difficult.” - Caroline Hull
“Bring real-life examples. Storytelling is effective because people like to hear about what other people's experiences are.” - Brittney Lynn
“Know the takeaway or call to action, that one thing you want to drive the audience to do.” - Katie Hunt
“Sometimes it takes a long time to see a listener turn into a customer, so know the metrics and know what you're doing.” - Katie Hunt
“Most podcasters are not making money podcasting, and we are doing this because we love it, because we want to share your story.” - Caroline Hull
“Even if you just share it in your stories on Instagram, it means the world to us, because again, we put so much time and energy into these podcasts.” - Caroline Hull
“You never know who is connected to who, so you just want to treat everyone with respect.” - Brittney Lynn
“Just keep it cool. Build relationships, make connections, do your part to help promote it. Do your part.” - Katie Hunt
“This media is growing so much, and if you're not involved in podcasting in some way, now is the time to jump in.” - Caroline Hull
“Podcasts help you connect more intimately with someone that may be new to you, because putting in your headphones and listening to a podcast episode, you feel like you get to know a person even though you've never met them.” - Brittney Lynn
“We all have our own story and path and experiences. The more that you're willing to share, the higher the probability that you're going to get onto podcasts. You are the only person that has experienced your own experiences. Nobody can take that away from you because you are the only you in the world.” - Brittney Lynn
