    How to Self Analyze Your Results as a Podcast Guest

    In today's episode, we will teach you how to analyze your podcast guest results and identify areas for improvement! Pace/Frequency - How many podcasts have you been on? Any less than 30 to 50 podcasts LIVE, there simply is not enough data to analyze. Correct show fit - are you in front of the right audience and connecting with the right hosts? The quality of your interview - Are you telling compelling stories? Are you giving value? Check in on your mindset and your energy. Are you showing up to interviews genuinely looking to collaborate with hosts and give value, or are you thinking a lot about how much you’ll GET from it?Are you clearly communicating how listeners can connect with you after the interview? Then look at your business:  Is the place you are sending listeners optimized to convert? Do you have an effective nurture strategy in place? Not everyone is ready to buy right away; are you emailing, texting, posting to social media so your new leads are nurtured by you? Is your offer needed, valuable, and priced right? Is the messaging about what you’re selling clear? Consider your sales cycle - how long, on average, do your clients follow you before buying?Are you posting about your interviews and engaging with your audience on a regular basis?  This is why we audit clients’ interviews as part of our service. We want to understand what’s happening and provide personalized feedback and coaching to help improve the results.  This takes a willingness to be honest with yourself with embrace a growth mindset. If you are getting on the right shows speaking to the right audiences, it’s time to look. A problem you can see is better than a problem you can’t Ready to get on podcasts?

    The ROI of Podcast Guesting

    One of the biggest questions we get from business owners who are just starting to consider podcast guesting is: “What’s the ROI?” In this episode, we break down the different ways that you can see a return on investment from being a podcast guest and why the value goes far beyond immediate sales. What You’ll Learn in This Episode Direct ROI: New Clients & Sales The most straightforward return is closing clients who discover you on a show. It happens more often than you’d think—but it’s only the beginning. SEO & Backlink Benefits Every interview often comes with a link to your website or social media. These backlinks strengthen your site authority and help improve your search rankings long-term. Instant Thought Leadership Content Each interview becomes repurposable content you can share across your platforms—positioning you as the trusted expert your audience needs. Expanded Brand Awareness Showing up on multiple podcasts allows more people to get to know who you are and what you do. When someone asks their network for a solution you offer, you’re the one they recommend. High-Value Relationships With Hosts Hosts are well-connected and often introduce our clients to referral partners, JV collaborators, and speaking opportunities. Speaking Engagement Opportunities Many podcast hosts run events, mastermind groups, or conferences. Guesting puts you on their radar for future invitations. Sharpen Your Message Each interview is a rep—but with a live audience. You’ll quickly learn what messaging resonates and what falls flat. Traffic to Your Website & Socials Listeners who connect with you take action. Podcast appearances reliably drive warm traffic to your online platforms. A Reality Check on Your Offer If you’re getting exposure to thousands of listeners and dozens of hosts—but no one is reaching out—this is priceless data. It’s a sign to look at your offer, messaging, or audience fit. Opportunity to Address Common Objections Hosts often ask the same questions your leads ask—and your answers can remove objections before prospects even get on a call. Educate Your Audience at Scale Every interview teaches listeners who you are, what you do, and why it matters—building familiarity and trust before they ever speak to you.
