What should you lead with in your pitch email?⁠

What should you lead with in your pitch email?⁠
⁠
In any article I've seen written or posts that are aimed at teaching you how to pitch yourself, I continue to see the same advice and it's WRONG!⁠
⁠
🛑 The advice I am seeing is to lead with what you have to offer to the audience and host. While this should definitely be included in your pitch, it should NOT be what you lead it. This makes the pitch about you and this isn't about you.⁠
⁠
💚 What you should lead with is something personal. Stalk the host, listen to the podcast, check out the host's website and social media. Open your pitch with something about them and how you relate to it. Share how you learned from or connected with a certain episode. ⁠
⁠
Part of my success in pitching (and 20 years in sales) is because I have never led my pitch with what I wanted....I lead with something personal and relatable. ⁠
⁠
After all, we're all humans and looking for that human connection!⁠

At the age of 16, what were you up to? ⁠
⁠
I was busy scooping ice cream at Baskin Robbins and taking on babysitting jobs while going to high school, but I certainly wasn't thinking about how I could launch a business, let alone solving my skin problems and giving back to a cause I believed in.⁠
⁠
Meet Joann Zehenni, Founder of Gemini Beauty. She's 18 years old, attending university and is already a successful entrepreneur! ⁠
⁠
Joann and some members of her family have varying levels of lupus and have struggled with beauty products that work for them. Instead of indulging in the problem, Joann decided to find the solution. ⁠
⁠
Listen to find out how Joann launched this incredible business as a teenager and is thriving as a college student majoring in entrepreneurship while shipping packages from her dorm room! ⁠
⁠
I've gotten to try the products and they not only smell delicious, but the packaging is perfection and my skin is glowing! ⁠

Podcast Hosting vs Podcast Interviews⁠ ⁠ Which

Podcast Hosting vs Podcast Interviews⁠
⁠
Which is for you?⁠
⁠
There are both pros and cons when it comes to hosting your own show....⁠
⁠
Pros ➕⁠
Your Own Content ⁠
Marketing Tool⁠
Promote Yourself⁠
⁠
Cons ➖⁠
Time (it takes 4 hrs to produce a 30 min episode) & you have to be consistent in creating new content⁠
Build Your Own Audience⁠
Pay For Production⁠
⁠
When it comes to podcast interviews, it's a win-win!⁠
⁠
🌟 Established Audiences ⁠
🌟 Reach More People⁠
🌟 Marketing Content That You Can Repurpose⁠
🌟 Approx 30 min For An Interview⁠
🌟 No Production Costs⁠
🌟 Share Your Story & Content⁠
⁠
A combination of the two is also a great option! My suggestion is to start by being a podcast guest and being interviewed. This lays the foundation in creating an audience if you decide to launch your own show!⁠

Are you ensuring your business is a part of your l

Are you ensuring your business is a part of your legacy?⁠
⁠
We all want to leave a legacy...a long-lasting impact. The way we ensure it happens can come in different ways.⁠
⁠
For many, leaving a legacy comes in the form of journals, writing a book, having a podcast. These are all wonderful ways to record who you are and what your thoughts were at any given moment.⁠
⁠
Sharing your story with others is another great way to leave your legacy because it gives you the ability to changes lives...that's an incredible legacy to leave!⁠
⁠
Have you considered how your business is helping form your legacy? Are you making a difference in the world and the lives of others with what you do on a daily basis? ⁠
⁠
I'm extremely blessed to have a business that allows me to not only changes lives around the world but make the world a better place for my children and others. ⁠
⁠
I hope my legacy is that I did change lives, always took time to listen and did my best to understand and be empathetic and sympathetic, stood up for not only what I believed in but for those who didn't have a voice, lifted others up and was always a cheerleader for others, shared all I knew and loved with my entire being, was a good friend, wife and mother. ⁠
⁠
What's the legacy you want to leave? Is your business helping you on that path?⁠

Sharing your story and experiences with the world

Sharing your story and experiences with the world has the power to change the world....⁠
⁠
Naz Meknat shared how she found freedom after abuse on The Rising Beyond Podcast. Naz is now fighting for women's rights here in the US and for those in Iran. Naz also shared her memoir, 7000 Miles To Freedom on the Share Your Truth podcast. ⁠
⁠
Naz is a refugee here in America who fled Iran overnight over 20 years ago. Her story is not only powerful but an example of what women in Iran are continuing to go through today.⁠
⁠
Elizabeth Rosenberg is always full of good advice and shared how you can cultivate reinvention support systems on the Reinvent Yourself podcast. Elizabeth had a BIG corporate job and suffered extreme burnout and a hospital stay. She's making sure others know they aren't alone on their work journey and that it is possible to thrive personally and professionally...you need to identify your purpose and apply it to both!⁠
⁠
⁠
I love hearing our clients' stories because they always teach me something new! Your story can teach and inspire others as well!⁠
⁠
Have you started sharing yourself on podcasts?⁠

The forgotten art of THE FOLLOW UP!⁠ ⁠ In sale

The forgotten art of THE FOLLOW UP!⁠
⁠
In sales, it takes 7 "touches" to close a sale. I heard this early on in my former career and I created an entire system of ways to reach out to prospects to create "touches". It never took me a full 7, but I was prepared for it.⁠
⁠
When pitching to podcast hosts and the media, you need to follow up, but there's an art to it.⁠
⁠
❌ Don't try to be cutesy and say "I'm bumping this in your inbox." Thanks Captain Obvious!⁠
❌ Don't follow up with one word. I've received follow ups that said "bing"....seriously, WTF?⁠
❌ Don't recap your entire email...include your previous email and respond to that.⁠
🟢 Be polite and concise. You only need a few sentences.⁠
🟢 Allow time between your pitch and your follow up. For podcasts, it should be a minimum of 2 weeks. For the media, it depends on if it's breaking news (24 hrs) or if it's a story that can wait (a week).⁠
🟢 Include your contact info, if necessary. ⁠
🟢 Don't send more than two follow ups and on the last one, state that it's your last one. ⁠
🟢 Let them know what your email is about in the subject line and don't change it!⁠
⁠
What questions do you have on pitch follow ups?⁠

Want to know the secrets to being the perfect podcast guest and storyteller?⁠
⁠
Look no further than today's episode!⁠
⁠
I'm sharing my tips on how to be a guest that hosts want to have on more than once and the best way to tell your story.⁠
⁠
It starts by showing up...on time and as yourself! ⁠
⁠
Be present...by engaging with the host, sharing openly of yourself and your story, the audience will see that you genuinely want to be where you are and that you're a good human. It's that simple. ⁠
⁠
Have you made podcast interviews part of your goals for this year? ⁠

One of my favorite quotes from Dr. Martin Luther K

One of my favorite quotes from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr....⁠
⁠
"Let no man pull you so low as to hate him." ⁠
⁠
Our country is in constant odds with ourselves lately, to the point that hatred is spewed everywhere on a daily basis. ⁠
⁠
We can have different opinions and beliefs but there is a lack of respect and the basic necessity of equality for all. ⁠
⁠
I teach my children that we don't "hate" anyone because hate is a very strong word and something that doesn't bring positivity into our own lives. ⁠
⁠
Instead of hating, continue speaking up for what is right. Stand up for others whose voices aren't being heard. Don't be afraid to let the world hear you. Share your story.⁠
⁠
Be the good the world needs.⁠
