In this episode of Let's Blow This Up, part of the Season 3 Solo Series, let's talk about how small, intentional actions can elevate your podcasting game. These easy-to-implement, actionable tips will help you stand out as a true pro at your craft while, at the same time, help you form stronger connections with your guests and audience alike.
In my opinion, it's crucial to focus on the little things that make a big difference. A small but powerful gesture, like learning how to pronounce your guest’s last name, shows respect, shows you've prepared, and sets a positive tone for the proceeding conversation.
And what about continuing the conversation post-recording? This can solidify the relationship you've built. Setting up a call or meeting after the interview provides a valuable opportunity to nurture the connection and turn a one-time chat into a lasting partnership.
Also, let's not forget about staying present in the moment and having in-depth, engrossing conversations the second your show begins. By focusing on organic conversations and listening to your guest instead of relying on a pre-built list of questions, you’ll naturally create an engaging and authentic experience your guests (and listeners) will love.
All this and more awaits you. See you inside!
