Listen "Don't ask about the scandal"
Episode Synopsis
Attracting top-tier guests, especially busy executives with demanding schedules, requires a commitment from you to make their experience as seamless and efficient as possible. This episode walks you through the exact steps you should take to remove every anticipated objection and ensure your guest arrives relaxed and ready to share their best insights.We all know their main concerns. First, time to prep.Your response must be: "We will do the prep for you; you just have to show up." Remind them that depending on your show's format, too much pre-show prep isn't beneficial or ideal anyway. Second, being away from the office. Reassure them that as a guest, they'll be needed on set for an hour or two at the most - not days at a time.Many executives also dislike being on camera. We can confirm that very few people do, but, provided they're talking about things they know, we'll share how you can reassure your guests that after a short time, they'll forget the cameras are there.Finally, we share how a podcast offers the ultimate peace of mind: the interview is not live! Any mistakes they make get deleted! Anything they say that they don’t like can be re-recorded. By eliminating these common stresses, you'll not just secure the guest - you guarantee a great performance.
