Many of the rules for pitching a conventional radio producer also apply to pitching a podcast, but there are some subtle differences. Suggest or use tools to help tell the story on air before the pitch. Can you start a relationship before you pitch? The odds are the pitch will be better written and better received.

Let them get to “know” you before you pitch and then, when you do pitch, knock it out of the park! Always be prepared for your media interview. Know who is interviewing you. See what kinds of things they’re posting on social media. Do your homework on the journalist and the outlet.

When I started out in PR, my focus was building relationships with the media who were mostly print journalists at newspapers and trade publications.

I spent Tuesday interviewing people for my online business show, More-2-Media on Daily Ad Brief , and what I found in every call was the importance of storytelling. Whether you are sharing a customer journey, a customer experience, writing your about section on your website or LinkedIn, etc., it needs to be based on a story.

I pitch the same media people different stories every month. If you have an opportunity to attend a media event, do that! Your messaging needs to be on point so that not only the media but also any potential clients or customers know what you do for them right away. Do you make a good interview?
