Perfect Podcast Pitch

48 Million...

That's how many people listen to podcasts EACH and every week

Let that sink in...

• Not per year
  
• Not per month
  
• But 48 million per week

Podcasting is a HUGE marketing channel, but the thing is?

You don't need to be running your own podcast to take advantage of this

How?

You just need to be a guest on those shows!

So let me ask you a question...

Do you want to be featured on top podcasts?

Of course you do because there are so many benefits to being a podcast guest:

#1. Link building for SEO? You wouldn't believe how fast and powerful podcast backlink's can be

#2. If you're a brand? Then podcasts can help you build authority and 'thought leadership' in your industry

#3. Blogger, Author Or Podcaster? Appearing on other people's shows can help build your audience AND let you promote your own content

The trick of course is getting accepted as a guest, so let me show you how a single email converted over 70% of the podcasts that we pitched...

From Brand New Blog To Industry Expert

A few years back, I launched a new website called Ampmycontent

It’s a marketing blog that focuses on ‘content promotion. My goal is to help you learn how to market the content that you have so that it drives results

The only problem?

The content marketing space is a *little* competitive…

Yeeesh! Over 3 billion results!

Even when you niche down, it's still pretty rough…

The worst part?

Because the site was only a few weeks old, it meant that even on a good day, we might only get 10 visitors or so!

So what could we do?

I knew I needed to make an impact if I was going to stand out. And so my first article was a BEAST of a guide to paid content promotion

The post did well, but if we wanted ongoing traffic, without having to pay for it, then I needed to start building links AND an audience.

Better still?

I needed to get out in front of people who ALREADY HAD our potential audience...

The Results So Far

We launched the article and then started to pitch podcasts with varying levels of success.

Why is it that when you try something new you forget everything else that you already know?

It’s weird right?

Without getting too nerdy, I’m a ‘Direct Response’ marketer. This means that I understand psychology and math

Simply put:

We create campaigns that connect emotionally and cause people to take actio.

Even better?

We know down to the dollar, how effective it is. (I just needed to remember to do this with our podcast pitches)

And when I did?

It was like rocket fuel…

Better still?

Because we were selective about who and HOW we pitched, this meant that we pitched 80 shows and got on 60 of them

(That's a 75% success rate!)

And these were not small podcasts either...

We're talking companies like Co-Schedule, Active Campaign, Copy Chief and more

Why care?

Because these podcasts are HUGE!

Not only do they have massive audiences of our ideal customers, but from an SEO perspective?

They have an average Domain Rank of 50+

Heck

Some were even higher than that…

Not sure what all that SEO/ Domain Rank stuff means?

Simply put, it meant we started ranking in Google like crazy

(We started outranking 5-10 year old sites within months of launching...)

This meant free traffic every month AFTER the episodes went live

Better still?

It meant traffic from people searching in Google who had never even heard the episode or knew about us or our business!

Yep

Just good ol’ Google recommending us when people searched on our topics

Not bad right?

But it gets better still...

How?

Well once those shows went live, this lead to requests from other podcasts to be guests on their shows

This meant more links, and access to other audiences

It didn't end there either

Suddenly CEO's and business owners would reach out to try and hire us, all from listening to the episodes...

That right there?

That’s a Fortune 5000 company

Not bad right?

Now that you've seen the results this can get, lets walk you past the 3 major hurdles when pitching podcasts…

The 3 Things That Cause Your Pitch To Fail

If we want to succeed at anything, we need to understand what's getting in our way

Whats stopping us from seeing results

When look back on why our own pitches failed, it boiled down to 3 core things...

Roadblock #1: Being Ignored

Most people miss this because it’s so simple

But if your headline doesn’t get their attention?

Then they don’t even read the email!

It sucks I know

But all the rest of your pitch?

Its wasted and unopened

That’s why it’s so vital to write a headline that connects directly with the reader, so that they open the damn thing!

But once they read it?

Then you have the next roadblock to get past...

Roadblock #2: Being Rejected

Here’s the thing:

No matter how good you are, some podcasts just won’t take you on

Maybe they're doing a series on a particular topic, or are fully booked for the next 6 months

It happens and it’s fine

What’s not fine?

Is when your pitch is so bad that not only do they reject it, but they throw it back in your face

Now most people won’t do this, unless you do something seriously wrong

For Example:

You can’t shotgun blast every podcaster with the exact same pitch

It’s not a numbers game- it’s a VALUE + RELATIONSHIP game instead

You need to find the benefit and value for the host

(Being a guest or helping their audience is not enough of a benefit)

Because if you don’t do that?

Then you get the 3rd problem...

Roadblock #3: Being Charged

It’s all about the angle

The connection

You need to make it so simple to say yes, so that they actively WANT YOU on their show

Because otherwise?

You might get an email asking you to pay for the opportunity...

Gah!

Now admittedly some shows would be worth the cost, if you could afford it

But I’ll be honest here- some of them have wildly different ideas of what their value is

(I’ve seen a podcast in the SAAS space charge between $10,000-$25,000 to be a guest on their show…)

Crazy right?

But here’s the thing:

That EXACT same show has unpaid guests on most weeks

The trick is learning how to pitch them properly...

Perfect Podcast Pitch is our step-by-step process to find podcasts, pitch them successfully, and record kick ass shows

It’s designed to help you side step common mistakes so you’re no longer ignored, rejected or forced to ‘pay to play’

How?

Because we focus on 3 key things...

How Is Perfect Podcast Pitch Different To Other Programs?

Perfect Podcast Pitch isn’t just about ‘pitching as many shows as possible'

If you wanted to do that?

You could simply buy some dodgy internet tool, scrape every podcasts email address and shotgun email your pitch...

BANG!

Your done in seconds but guess what?

So are all the opportunities and relationships

(It’s weird but people don’t appreciate random cold copy and paste emails…)

Me personally?

If someone spam pitches our blog I simply scroll to spam and block all future emails

(They don't even get a 2nd chance)

That’s why Perfect Podcast Pitch focuses on 3 core areas...

#1: Get Inside Their Heads

Want to sell anything to anyone?

It’s not hard

You simply find out what they want, and show how what you have, makes that happen

Easy right?

But the thing is, most programs teach you ‘hack's’

A flaw in a system that works this week, but not the next

By the time you come to implement it?

Its been fixed and no longer works- so you bounce through hoops chasing hack after hack…

So at the end?

Your still where you started

(And that sucks)

Perfect Podcast Pitch is based on old school marketing principles

None of those ‘work today, broke tomorrow hacks

Instead you’ll learn the psychology, research and approach to be able to get results

Why care?

Because no matter the platform- you’ll be able to find that connection, reach out, and be a kick ass guest!

Now AND in the future...

#2 Structured Delivery And Process

It’s not enough to know what drives people

You also need to know how to communicate with them

Why?

Well… people are weird

Let me explain:

We can know all the information about our audience

• Their pains and desires
• What they want
• What they need

Heck… we can even have the perfect product for them

But if we don’t say the right things at the right time, and in the right order?

Splat

Our pitch fails

Why is this?

Well without getting too nerdy, its because of how our brain processes information

You see, our brain has 3 levels to it:

• The Lizard brain
• The Limbic Brain, and
• The Neo- Cortex

All information starts at the lizard brain, and that's where the problem starts

Why?

Because the Lizard brain is based on desires and fears

Its not logical but emotional

Why care?

Because if you fail to speak to this first, then its just like that email headline…

The information simply doesn’t get opened or move forward

(Not great right?)

Well even when you get past that, you're still not talking to people logically

After the Lizard brain pays attention, it moves the information into the Limbic brain

This controls our previous experiences and behavior

This is why it’s vital to learn your audiences own experiences, pains and goals

Why?

Because if we can’t speak to this, then people don’t lose interest

Finally we have the Neo-Cortex

This is the actual, logical decision maker

This is the person who’ll say yes (or at least think about it)

This is why you need to understand how to structure your information

Because if you don’t?

Then you can have the best pitch or product and still not move forward

Which is why we build this structure into the templates we use for pitching

Its not a blank copy and paste

But it is ticking boxes and hitting the right triggers in the right order

A psychological structure to get them to pay attention, keep reading, take action and get you on their show...

(And don't worry- its easier then it sounds)

#3 How To Stand Out In Front Of Their Audience
(So They Become YOUR Audience…)

So here’s a nice little bonus

Rather than just show you how to get on these podcasts, we take it a step further

Why?

Because getting in front of people is great, but better still?

Is when you stand out and their audience becomes yours also

That’s how you fully leverage podcasts

Not only that?

But we’ll show you how to be stand out guest also!

Why care?

Because this way the hosts will recommend you for other shows- without you even asking them to

Pretty good right!?

How Much Does It Cost?

Let’s be honest here

It’s not about how much it costs you- it’s about how much value it can bring you

As we look at it, you have 3 options to move forward...

Option #1: Hire A Podcast/ PR Company To Pitch Shows For You

Not a bad option, and it can save you a little time

If you have the cash to spare, sure you could go with this

So how much would a PR podcast service cost?

On average around $700- $1000 per month

(Or $10k per year)

It could be worse I suppose...

Option #2: Pay To Play On Major Podcasts

Bad pitches means having to pay to be a guest

The worst part?

Some of these shows have WILDLY different pricing

($10-25K for an episode is freaking insane)

And sure:

If you have the cash AND it’s the right audience for you, then it might be worth it

Or?

You can choose option #3…

Option #3: Sidestep The Learning Curve And Join Perfect Podcast Pitch

$199 bucks

That’s all it costs

$199 to be able to pitch your own shows, dodge PR companies and not have to pay for episodes

More importantly?

You can sidestep the major mistakes and learning curves that can hold you back from getting results

It gets better…
