Strategy 0310 Mins / Invite

Podcast Prospecting Blitz

Invite high-value prospects to be guests on your show. Position yourself as an authority and create a natural transition to sales.

The Concept

This leverages reciprocity and ego. People love to talk about their expertise. By making them the "hero" of an interview, you build a relationship in a non-threatening way. The sales conversation happens naturally after the value has been delivered.

Would you be open to scheduling a quick 15-minute follow-up call where I can walk you through my findings? Or if you prefer, I can just record a quick Loom video and send it over?"
