How to Land a Big Guest for Your Show - 15 Tips that Work

The foundation of all of your lessons have been instrumental to my personal development. Serve others. It really does all come down to figuring how how to provide a value to someone.

wow among 4.5k ppl who watched this in 2 years ... that is like less then 0.0000001% of total population ... so underrated and big value in 13min video.

Hi Pat, your videos come up quite a bit when I've searched for tips on starting a podcast, so I went ahead and subscribed. Thanks for the tips and helpful advice. My friend and I are resellers on Ebay, Facebook Marketplace, local online classifieds....and we're about to start our podcast this week (recording Oct 12th 2022, and releasing the Monday after that). We have a youtube channel for it, and will be on the major podcast platforms, and we also have an Instagram page with more social media to follow. Our podcast will be Resellers Anonymous Podcast, if you find the youtube channel with a shadow silhouette of two people on a red background with an RA in a circle, that's us! Thanks again Pat, and continued success to you!

I used some of these tips to land guests for my academic podcast!

Thanks Pat, great video. As I love to read often connecting with an author really resonated with me. Also, we include guests who are mentors that share their innovation, transformation and leadership journey expertise which resonates with our audience. Thanks to your mentorship we officially launched our podcast last week As-Is ToBe and just reached our 50th download. Many thanks.

Can’t thank you enough Pat for all of the teachings and showing us the way🤘🏼🤘🏼 Your channel and streams have been the motivation I need to “Let Go” and be who I’m supposed to be!

A wealth of actionable advice in a few minutes!

Thank you so much, Pat. You always provide great content so freely. Love it. I host the Write Something Worthy Podcast to help nonfiction authors to write books that are best seller worthy. Tip #1 was a great reminder for me. I know a lot of people, but haven’t kept in strong touch with them. Maybe it is time to rejuvenate relationships. Tips 2-4 were also good reminders for me. Being helpful is always beneficial, regardless. As a ghostwriter, book editor, and book coach, applying those tips should be easy. I just need to invest the time. Thanks again.

Very interesting perspective Pat. I've just launched a podcast which is in 100% slow English. I will take these points into account when reaching out for a guest in the future! 💪

Thank you Pat for this value. This is right up my alley, and super helpful! I'm new to the podcast space, and I run a show called Dads Parenting Boldly Podcast. I am definitely going to apply these principles! Peace!

Pat, thank you!!!! I just launched my podcast and Matt King (CEO of Gobundance) and Sarah Weaver (Bigger Pockets, 30 Day Stay book) and i got them because I was present in other places. My podcast is Small Steps Big Wins with Sue Saller. I have launched my podcast by binging on your videos.

Refreshed youtube and it says 10 seconds ago :o It's been interesting seeing the development of this video in your Income Streams

Leaning into having guests hopefully soon, a good takeaway is not always having to land or going for the big fish when it comes to guests. 🎣

Love this, Flynn. Getting bigger named folks on my show, I have straight up just DMed people and asked. A lot said yes. That's how I got Matthew Berry from ESPN on my show, for instance. But you gave me some more tips I'd love to use in the future, especially the short video. My podcast is Get Real with Kacey Kasem. I interview folks in the fantasy football industry to get a behind the scenes look at their lives.

Thanks Pat! Awesome as usual! I’m a big time networker but haven’t had a problem reaching out to others except... I have been a little shy about reaching out to bigger names. I like the tip for sending something physical as well as a short video clip. Thanks again Titans of Transition, on audio platforms and YouTube

Those are super useful tips, Pat! Do you have any specific advice for bringing in a big guest that is not a content creator or celebrity, but is more a big business person that is less well-known to the wider public?

That's so cool you're sharing this. I've always wondered. 😊🙏

I'll start doing videos again and eventually I'll have a podcast. The advice I think it's more useful for me. Is invite people I already know. Thank you for such great video.

Awesome editing, jump cuts & b roll. My example, thanks Pat! :)

This was great. Thanks so much Pat! I host the Choose Your Struggle podcast and I'll def use some of these tips to help grow the show!
