We all know how important it is to be consistent with podcasting, but sometimes life gets in the way.  What do you do if you don't have an episode ready by the time you are due to release one? Well with some feedback from a friend, I realized something I did with my other podcast when I had to skip a week could be an opportunity for a lesson here.  

What well cover:

• Why communication with your listeners is key
• A better way to skip a week
• Consistency is key

Have you seen those clips of podcasts on TikTok or IG Reels? The ones that show a quick sample of a podcast, and then tease you to go an listen to the full episode?  Today I want to talk about how to make those clips, even if you don't know how to video edit.  It's easier than you might think.

Even if you don't post your podcast as a video, you still might be able to make these clips if you record interviews over Zoom.  Instead of doing nothing with those videos, turn them into social media clips that can grow your podcast.  Today we talk how to do that.

Topics in Today's Episode:

• Making TikTok/IG Reel clips
• Why these clips can grow your podcast audience
• With no video editing experience 
• Turning a Zoom recording into a social media clip

In today's episode I want to talk about booking guests on your podcast.  If you have an interview style podcast, where you have a featured guest you interview for each new episode, you know booking guests can be one of the hardest parts of your show.  Finding the right people can be hard sometimes.  Researching people's socials and reaching out to them in hopes for a response is one way to book guests, but I have found a much more effective way to book great guests. 

In person.  In person networking events for me have been the #1 way to book great podcast guests.  And it's for two reasons.  One, you get to actually talk to someone and feel their energy to see if it's a right match.  There's no hiding behind social media.  Two, most people are flattered when you ask them, especially in person.  I have yet to have someone say no to me.  Once you get them interested, you also then need to make sure it's easy for them to then book.  You want to make it as easy as possible for them to actually get booked, so that way they don't get stuck with the process and end up not booking. 
 

Topics in today's episode:  

• Online networking
• Find guests in real life
• Make sure the guest has a great time
• Booking a guest with one click
