One of the #1 ways to quickly and efficiently grow your show is to be a guest on other people’s podcasts. But pitching yourself as a guest takes more effort than sending out a copy-and-paste e-mail template and hoping for the best. To successfully pitch yourself, you need to avoid 4 major mistakes that make podcasters skip over your pitch. This week, episode 11 of Successful Podcasting Unlocked answers the question: What are common podcast pitching mistakes people make?

In this episode, I share:

Before pitching, take the time to research the show, listen to some episodes and find ways that you can add value to their already existing content.
Personalize your pitch in a way that shows genuine interest and appreciation for the host AND their audience.
Engage with and support the host outside of your pitch to build connection and trust.
People are busy, so if you’re not following up on your pitch, you may miss an opportunity.

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips, tricks, and advice as I answer all your podcasting questions. Thank you for listening!
