4 Reasons Your Pitch Keeps Getting Overlooked
Jan 28, 2024 Episode 101
Adriane Galea

Since starting this podcast, we have received hundreds of pitches. Out of those hundreds, we have only said yes to ONE pitch – because the rest have... fallen flat.

In this episode, Adriane isn't holding back with the four primary reasons most pitches don't land – and at least one of these things you're probably doing because you think it's helping your pitch.

If you're looking  to land guest podcast spots, this is the episode that will help you with what to do... and what not to do.


Quick overview of what we cover:

  • How to apply what we're talking about to ANY medium you might be looking to pitch – stages, digital or print media, etc
  • The type of energy you definitely DON'T want to lead with (but probably are)
  • What almost every pitch fails to do that's very likely leading you to an automatic no
  • The most basic effort you need to make before pitching 
  • The 4 B's of generating visibility and leads – and which one guesting on podcasts fits into
  • How you can spin the exact same content, but differently for each show to strengthen your pitch tenfold 
  • Why it's never about you when you pitch – it is always about them
  • Why it's important to understand that most producers (of podcasts, events, etc) are getting more pitches than they can say yes to
