Hey there, future podcast star! So, you're about to make a guest appearance on a podcast. Exciting, right? Well, let's make sure it's a memorable one — for all the right reasons.
Treat it like you're catching up with an old friend over coffee. Yep, it's that simple! This perspective not only helps you keep your nerves in check but makes the conversation sound more natural and engaging.
Stay on point! Whether your message is "expanding your fleet responsibly" or "why you should invest in local marketing," keep it fresh in your mind. A quick glance at your notes is okay, but remember, you're not reading a script—just be you!
No need for fancy equipment. But if you have a decent microphone, go for it! If not, your laptop or phone's mic will do. Just remember to avoid bustling cafes or noisy subways when recording.
Okay, don't laugh. But towels can help! By dampening sound echoes, a towel or two can make your voice sound smoother. So toss one over that desk or close the curtains to enhance sound quality.
Water is your friend—drink up before recording. And maybe chug an ice cold PBR if you've had a long day (just a one, mind you! Save some for during the episode). But remember, no chewing or noisy snacking!
Remember to visit the loo, even if you think you don't need to. Trust me on this.
While your feline and canine companions, and human loved ones are amazing, they might not be the best co-stars. Find a quiet space to record without unexpected interruptions.
Turn off or silence your phone. You'd be surprised how a random notification can throw you off.
Be on time! It's a small gesture that goes a long way.
Avoid those random sounds—lip smacks, sudden coughs, or unexpected noises. And if you need to, mute yourself for a moment.
Feel free to jot down notes as the conversation progresses. It helps keep track of key points and ensures you're actively engaged.
Use your host's name—it adds a personal touch and fosters a connection.
We all have our filler words. Being aware of them can help reduce their frequency. And if you slip up, no worries—it's all part of the process!
Never forget to thank your host. A simple "thank you" can leave a lasting impression.
When your episode is live, share it far and wide! Your host will appreciate the extra exposure, and hey, it's a great chance to show off your podcast debut.
