According to research recently from Edison Research, more UK adults than ever are actually listening to podcasts, and audiences are getting younger, and way more diverse. So there's an opportunity. Plus, according to RAJAH's Midas survey 21% of the UK population tune into podcasts in an average week and listen to around seven hours of podcasts each week.

This episode of 'Practical Snacks' looks at how you can secure more podcast guest bookings. I share:

  • How to research and find relevant podcasts
  • The key questions to ask yourself in order to create a compelling pitch
  • How to prepare for a podcast interview
  • How to promote a podcast appearance
