My 5 Golden Rules for Being a Great Podcast Guest
My love of podcasts started when I began a new job that came with a 3 hour daily commute on public transport. They were a way to switch off from the world, block out all the noise and be informed or entertained, depending on my mood.
This love has grown exponentially during lockdown. I would head out of the house for my permitted hour of exercise with my headphones in and someone talking away in my ears. Bliss.
Since starting my own business, I have found that being a guest on podcasts is a great way to share my expertise and spread the message about what I do and how I help people.
Have you ever been a guest on a podcast? Is this something you are thinking about in the future? Maybe you already have a podcast and your invited guests are not quite stepping up to the mark in terms of their responsibilities.
If someone is sharing their platform and audience with you and inviting you into their world (remember, as a guest, you are stepping into THEIR world — not the other way around!) the least that you can do is be the best possible guest.
So here are you my 5 golden rules for being a great podcast guest, let me know in the comments if you have any other rules that work for you.
