Julie is the Founder of Your Expert Guest, a podcast guest booking agency for female founders and impact-driven leaders that want to speak directly to their ideal client without spending HOURS on social media.

She and her team have booked over 1500 interviews for their clients and can track hundreds of thousands of dollars of business back to being a podcast guest on top-ranked shows.

When she’s not working with her amazing team of guest and host matchmakers, she loves spending time with her family, watching SNL sketches and of course, listening to podcasts.

Julie was kind enough to come on the show to share practical tips and insights for service providers and businesses looking to leverage podcast guesting as a marketing tool. We'll cover everything from getting started with outreach, to creating a media kit, and even how to overcome podcast guesting jitters! If you want more visibility for your business and love to have interesting conversations, then podcast guesting might be a great strategy for you. Let's find out!

Free Podcast Guest Checklist: https://yourexpertguest.com/checklist
How to Pitch Podcasts: https://ravel-collective.circle.so/c/referrals/how-to-pitch-podcasts

[00:02:25] What's included in full-service podcast booking services? 
[00:05:48] Focusing on relationship building with hosts and clients. Tip: look for complementary products/services when pitching to hosts for a more natural referral relationship.
[00:08:48] What does a good media kit for podcast guesting include?
[00:10:49] Guesting on podcasts is great for building referral network, creating strategic partnerships and getting in front of new audiences for ongoing visibility.
[00:13:34] Target niche podcasts for better engagement with top clients, look at the industries clients are in and resonate with the audience by finding similar topics in popular episodes.
[00:23:06] Overcoming nervousness as a podcast guest by reframing it as a favor to hosts. Starting small with podcasts that have fewer listeners or are not yet launched can help, and remembering that having a unique perspective is valuable. Most hosts don't care about how big or established a guest is.
[00:29:57] Create interview topics that will help achieve desired results, such as attracting people to your email list. Consider frequently asked client questions, top performing podcast episodes, unique frameworks, opposing industry views, and problems in your business.
[00:35:49] How to decide if done-for-you podcast pitching services are right for you.[00:42:02] Pitching yourself? Research shows before pitching. Check website and social media. Listen to show before pitching. Be relationship-focused, not transaction-focused.
[00:44:39] Connecting with guests on LinkedIn or setting up a call is now more common among service providers and hiring individuals, instead of solely using funnels.

How to Pitch Podcasts: https://ravel-collective.circle.so/c/referrals/how-to-pitch-podcasts

[00:02:25] What's included in full-service podcast booking services? 
[00:05:48] Focusing on relationship building with hosts and clients. Tip: look for complementary products/services when pitching to hosts for a more natural referral relationship.
[00:08:48] What does a good media kit for podcast guesting include?
[00:10:49] Guesting on podcasts is great for building referral network, creating strategic partnerships and getting in front of new audiences for ongoing visibility.
[00:13:34] Target niche podcasts for better engagement with top clients, look at the industries clients are in and resonate with the audience by finding similar topics in popular episodes.
[00:23:06] Overcoming nervousness as a podcast guest by reframing it as a favor to hosts. Starting small with podcasts that have fewer listeners or are not yet launched can help, and remembering that having a unique perspective is valuable. Most hosts don't care about how big or established a guest is.
[00:29:57] Create interview topics that will help achieve desired results, such as attracting people to your email list. Consider frequently asked client questions, top performing podcast episodes, unique frameworks, opposing industry views, and problems in your business.
[00:35:49] How to decide if done-for-you podcast pitching services are right for you.[00:42:02] Pitching yourself? Research shows before pitching. Check website and social media. Listen to show before pitching. Be relationship-focused, not transaction-focused.
[00:44:39] Connecting with guests on LinkedIn or setting up a call is now more common among service providers and hiring individuals, instead of solely using funnels.

In our conversation we get into the latest advancements in AI technology, their impact on the marketing industry, and Danielle tells us why marketers don't need to worry about AI taking their jobs. And of course, no AI conversation would be complete without touching on the potential risks and Danielle shares her perspectives and thoughts on how we can avoid some of them.

Voice ai: https://beta.elevenlabs.io/
Swell podcast ai: https://www.swellai.com/

[00:00:26] Excitement for a new and widespread change in the industry utilizing AI technology. Reminiscent of the excitement during the dot com era and the emergence of new companies like Amazon and Costco.

[00:02:32] AI is machine learning used in various ways, including algorithms like Google's Bert and personal assistants such as Amazon's Woo Woo Girl. It's likely we've been utilizing it more than we realize, from search results to our cars.

[00:11:04] Focus on following thought leaders to understand direction and optimize SEO for specific niches with thorough and correct answers.

[00:13:12] Using voice technology, currently testing voice query to Chat GPT for quicker results, interest in top SEO ranking.

[00:15:44] Focus on bringing leads and telling stories to convey emotions. Use technology and tools to optimize writing, but remember that the core of the job is still about conveying the client's story to their target market. Clients may not be interested in learning the technical skills, so it's important to stand firm on being hired to do that job.

[00:25:22] Exciting development: AI technology creates podcast snippets using voice samples to read newsletters with natural sounding results.

[00:26:52] Voice sampling can be used to create a whole database for audio content, but authentication processes need to be put in place to avoid misuse. Companies are working on checks and balances to differentiate between AI-generated and real content. This technology makes it easier to create audio and video content, which can help build personal brands.

[00:32:22] Potential for AI to make life easier and streamline processes in both personal and business development. Possibility of accessing public data to better serve their clients and build stronger connections with them.

Today we're talking to Nancy Medoff. Nancy is globally recognized as an authority on women and confidence and she won’t stop until women everywhere step into their strengths so they can show up like own the room. 

After close to three decades of walking her talk in corporate sales leadership, Nancy is now a best-selling author, keynote speaker, top 25% podcaster and, executive coach has literally “written the book" on women and confidence. Her book Unmute Yourself and Speak Up to Stand Out is a game changer and a call to action for women who are ready not just to get their seat at the table – but to help build a bigger table. 

Nancy was once a fan of imposter syndrome, but has since started to see it as a crutch and limited belief. She explains that men often have the same feelings of being unsure, but take the risk anyway. She encourages people to acknowledge, accept, and not let it stand in the way of taking action. Nancy gives a three-step process to overcoming imposter syndrome, which includes using recall, redirect, and excitement to combat the feeling and take action.

[00:00:03] Imposter Syndrome. [00:03:31] Overcoming nervousness. [00:06:40] Reframing imposter syndrome. [00:10:23] The power of words. [00:14:31] Fear of putting themselves out there. [00:17:02] Overcoming personal baggage. [00:19:42] Lighting the match yourself. [00:22:55] Fear of entrepreneurship. [00:25:46] Finding your why. [00:29:13] Finding your why. [00:32:06] Setting Boundaries.

It can bridge gaps between cultures, generations, and even create a sense of community. Our digital spaces offer that same promise, but only if they're acessible.

In this episode I'm chatting with Shawn Satterfield. She's an inclusion architect, accessibility expert, CEO of Mozaro and founder of the Shine Music Festival. Her passion and purpose is to make the world more accessible for all.

Shawn has been to music festivals all over the world, and everywhere she travels, she's noticed a common denominator—the ability of music to create a collective community. People can bond over their shared musical tastes, and this connection is often stronger than a simple “hello”. 

In this episode, Shawn draws the parallel between music and our digital spaces, and how both have  the power to bring people together, but only if they're accessible.

She shares what drove her to create the world's first totally accessible music festival and we explore the question: what would it take to make the world a more connected and possible place for everyone.

Watch the video Shawn mentions w/the street musician and the little girl:

]]>8eb0bbee-357f-43ce-b38a-363aad75db0a_63qvcLsx3mMon, 10 Apr 2023 13:00:00 GMTMusic has the power to connect people in ways that are often unexpected. It can bridge gaps between cultures, generations, and even create a sense of community. Our digital spaces offer that same promise, but only if they're acessible.

In this episode I'm chatting with Shawn Satterfield. She's an inclusion architect, accessibility expert, CEO of Mozaro and founder of the Shine Music Festival. Her passion and purpose is to make the world more accessible for all.

Shawn has been to music festivals all over the world, and everywhere she travels, she's noticed a common denominator—the ability of music to create a collective community. People can bond over their shared musical tastes, and this connection is often stronger than a simple “hello”. 

In this episode, Shawn draws the parallel between music and our digital spaces, and how both have  the power to bring people together, but only if they're accessible.

She shares what drove her to create the world's first totally accessible music festival and we explore the question: what would it take to make the world a more connected and possible place for everyone.

If we blindly follow what everyone else does and prescribes, we end up with a watered down version of our brand that leaves us invisible and burned out.

There's a better way, and Dee Dee is going to help us out by sharing how she approaches her own marketing so it's authentic, fun, AND effective.

Deanna shares with us how she got into marketin and why she thinks we should question everything and break the rules when they don't make sense.

We talk about:

How the energy you put into your marketing can make it fly or flop

Avoiding social media overwhelm by paying attention to what feels good and avoiding what doesn't

Getting over the idea that we need to be an influencer to succeed in business

Having more fun with your content and watch people fall in love

What to watch out for when we start looking to the experts to figure out how to market

Saying NO to mainstream marketing tactics in the name of authenticity
