4 Questions To Becoming A Better Podcast Interviewee

Figuring out what type of podcaster you want to be is important to establishing your podcast. But have you thought about and established what kind of interviewee or guest you want to be on other podcasts?

It may not be the growth hack of the century (spoiler: It's not), but it is a solid top-of-the-funnel activity likely worth your time. So how do you become a better podcast guest?  I don't have a pat "how to" answer at the ready. But I do have four questions you should consider that will help you boost your podcast interviewee skills.  1. Agenda or objective? An agenda means you have a few key talking points around a central theme. An objective means you have a clear call to action to push as often as you can. 2. Prep or go in cold? Prepping means you won't be hit out of the blue. But going in cold could make your answers and reactions sound more spontaneous and natural. 3. Short or long answers? Do you keep your answers direct and to the point? Or do you embrace meandering and anecdotes, leaving it up to the host or their editor to tighten things up as they see fit?   4. How accommodating will you be? Do you have only certain days or times when you can be available? Or do you have ultimate flexibility and can say "Whenever is good for you" to all requests, moving your schedule around as necessary?  Now, as I said, there aren't right or wrong answers to any of those questions. If you're curious how I'd answer: I almost always have an agenda, but rarely an objective I prepare for every guesting opportunity, but not obsessively I give way too long answers but am working on going shorter I'm very accommodating, but I have some hard blocks on my calendar so I can get things done
