157: Don’t Do These Things When Pitching Yourself as a Guest on a Podcast or TV Show (And What to Do Instead)
Vegan Business Talk episode 157
In this episode I reveal a couple of situations I experienced recently when publicists pitched me their guests to be on this show, that I want you to avoid.
Making journalists’ jobs easy is super important when you’re doing your own PR (or pitching a guest on their behalf). I include podcasters and bloggers in the journalist category too.
I receive heaps of pitches from both PR agencies and vegan business owners and to be honest, most of them fall flat, because the person pitching hasn’t done their homework.
Also, even when I am potentially interested in having a guest on, things don’t always go smoothly.
So, in this episode, I share with you what doesn’t work, and then what does, so you can maximize your chances of landing yourself a guest interview on (the right) shows.
