    Applying Narration Secrets to Create an Audiobook and a Better Podcast with Jeremy Schreifels

    Podcasting isn't the only audio medium. Audiobooks are another, which, if you are an author or looking to be one, is a key asset to get more book sales and readers.

He shares how he coaches authors to speak the book in a way that holds listeners' attention, connects with the audience, and brings stories to life. These same techniques can be taken straight from the recording studio to your podcast, helping you connect with your listeners on a much deeper level.   What You'll Learn: 🎧Why narrating your own book creates a more authentic connection with your audience. 🎧The simple format change that helped one author finally reach her core audience. 🎧The one thing to know about vocal dynamics that makes your delivery more powerful. 🎧How to calculate the time commitment required for recording your audiobook. 🎧How to leverage the audiobook for more print sales  🎧Tips for podcasters to use the same principles to make their episodes more compelling    Head to https://LeverageYourPodcastShow.com to read the blog >>>Stop leaving success to chance.

    The Strategy Behind Podcast Guesting Goals (Most Get This Wrong)

    Appearing as a guest on podcasts is a powerful tool, but many guests don't always see the results they were hoping for. One common reason is not having a clear objective going into the interview. When you haven't decided what you want from the conversation, it's easy to default to simply sharing valuable insights and hoping something comes from it. It's also natural to want multiple outcomes from guesting, like generating leads, building authority, creating content, and forming collaborations. But when everything is the focus, your efforts can become a bit scattered. Your preparation may not fully align with your message, and your follow-up can be inconsistent. To create more intentional results, you need a podcast guesting game plan. This is a clear approach where everything you do—before, during, and after the interview—is aligned with a specific goal. Let's explore the most common goals and how your strategy can support each one.   What You'll Learn  How to choose the right goal for your podcast guesting (and why trying to get everything backfires) The difference between guesting for leads, content, visibility, and collaborations and the strategies you need for each How to structure your interviews so they bridge the gap between audience pain and your offer What to change in your talking points to create authority-boosting micro content How to guide the interview using a "conversation compass" instead of hoping it flows Why your current guesting approach isn't converting and the small shifts that change everything How to build a before, during, and after game plan so every interview actually moves your business forward Head to https://LeverageYourPodcastShow.com to read the blog >>>Stop leaving success to chance.
