    How to Rebrand Your Podcast with Angie Griffith of Podfluencer Society

    Hello Besties! I’m back with another episode all about rebranding, which is something a lot of podcasters have to navigate as their podcasts evolve, including myself. Today’s guest also has first-hand experience. Angie Griffith started in the music industry as an artist manager before her pivot to podcasting and becoming the talent herself. Angie now hosts a podcast called Podfluencer Society, which recently underwent a rebrand. In this episode, she shares the strategy for how she relaunched her show — which included buying a billboard in downtown Nashville! — and, of course, her tips for executing a successful rebrand. * Connect with Angie @theangiegriff on Twitter. * Follow Angie @theangiegriffith and Podfluencer Society @podfluencersociety on Instagram. * Listen to Podfluencer Society on your preferred podcast listening app. * For Angie’s Podcast Rebrand Checklist, go to podfluencerproducts.com/rebrand. * Sign up for my upcoming class, Creating Your Podcast.

    Podcast Like a Motherf*cker with Emily McElwreath (& Cheryl Strayed!)

    Hi Besties! Today’s guest is Emily McElwreath, host of The Art Career podcast, and Emily’s superpower is guest booking. Some of us feel like we need to work our way up to our dream guests, but not Emily. Starting season one of her podcast, she didn’t wait for permission to approach top-tier talent. She was hot out the gate with Laurie Simmons, Marilyn Minter, and other big names in the art world. She’s even managed to land Pulitzer Prize-winning art critic Jerry Saltz and one of my all-time favorite authors, Cheryl Strayed (which, to me, is like landing on the moon as far as podcast guest booking goes). So I invited Emily on Podcast Bestie to tell us about her guest book strategy, along with some tips for approaching a high-profile dream guest of your own. Cheryl Strayed famously coined the mantra “Write Like a Motherf*cker” for her Dear Sugar column (which later became a book called Tiny Beautiful Things that I have gifted to no less than 20 people, and now it’s also a TV show on Hulu) — and that sentiment can be applied to any creative endeavor. So after Emily’s interview, you’ll get a pep talk from Cheryl herself, and I hope it inspires you to podcast like a motherf*cker. That is a pep talk we all need to hear sometimes. * Connect with Emily @emilymcelwreath_art and The Art Career podcast @theartcareer on Instagram. * Tune into Emily’s podcast, The Art Career. * Check out the website for The Art Career. * Sign up for my upcoming workshop, How to Build a “Platform” for Writers Who Shudder at the Thought.
