Hey, Podcasters!

For years, we’ve said one of the fastest ways to grow a podcast is by guesting on other shows.

But we hadn’t really ​tested it ourselves​. So this year, we did!

Jordan ran an experiment testing cold outreach, guest platforms, and everything in between and ended up getting booked on 8+ podcasts.

What surprised her the most was how easy it was!

Being a podcast guest isn’t about having a big audience or impressive credentials. Most hosts are just trying to answer three questions:

• Can you serve their listeners?
• Can you communicate clearly?
• Can you make their life easier?

Once she understood that, she built a strategy focused on pitching podcasts where she was a natural fit and could provide value.

Approaching being a podcast guest as collaboration, not promotion, leads to better conversations, real relationships, and growth for your show along the way.

She also found that tools like ​PodMatch​ sped things up significantly, since you’re connecting with hosts who are already looking for guests.
