Ever had a guest on your podcast with a big audience, and you’re stoked for them to share the episode to help grow your show — only for them to do NOTHING once it airs?! (Hint: it’s not because they’re lazy or forgetful.) In this episode, podcast guesting expert Kelly Mosser explains the surprising reason most podcast guests don’t share their episode, and what’s REALLY going through their mind before, during, and after the interview (and why this matters more than you think).We’re sharing four strategies you can use right away to make your podcast guests feel comfortable and confident on air, and what to say BEFORE you hit record so that they give you their best content. Plus, we’ll talk about how to stop your guest from rambling (without making it awkward), and what you can do after the interview to make sure they’re hyped to promote the episode — even if it airs weeks later.So if you want to build stronger relationships with your podcast guests and turn them into advocates for your show, this one’s for you. Hit play and let’s make your business bingeworthy.1:21 - What’s REALLY Going Through Your Guest’s Mind Before the Interview4:53 - The Top Reason Your Podcast Guests Aren't Sharing Their Episode10:57 - The Most Effective Way to Prep Your Podcast Guests Before Their Interview12:41 - What to Say BEFORE You Hit Record So That Your Guest Gives You Their Best Content17:44 - Do This to Keep Your Guests From Rambling (and Keep the Conversation Flowing)Episode Links:Free Masterclass: The Profitable Podcast TourCheck out Kelly’s Podcast: Aligned SuccessConnect with Kelly: Website | Instagram | LinkedInOther Episodes You’ll Enjoy:Why Guesting on Podcasts Won’t Grow Your Show (Unless You Do This)→ This episode was recorded on the Deity VO-7USupport the showLiked this episode?
