About this episode
Have you ever received a guest pitch that gave you the ick? Did their pitch leave you wondering if the inquiring guest has listened to one episode or if they have even engaged with your content? Today we share our experiences with awful guest pitches and what we consider to be red flags. We also cover strategies to improve your pitches, lead with value, and put your best foot forward. If you're drawing a blank on how to connect with podcast hosts to land yourself a guest spot, tune in for the best practices of guest pitching.
