Description

If you want to interview guests onto your podcast, you'll need to reach out to them in a way that feels personal, professional and (most importantly) enticing.

In this episode, I walk you through how you should approach guest booking if you want to get more yeses (and how to avoid feeling disheartened if you don't).

What you’ll learn:

  • Why your pitch email matters more than you think
  • What to include (and what to leave out) when you reach out
  • Tips for making your show appealing to potential guests
  • How to streamline your guest booking process
  • The secret to a great guest experience
