Like webinars, being a guest on a podcast has impacts. . .
Reach a new audience
You can be an influential catalyst to an audience with a wide range of familiarity to nuclear energy. Depending on your topic, podcasts whose audiences are less familiar with nuclear energy could potentially have the highest impact.
Establish Expertise
By delivering valuable content, you position yourself as an authority in your field and build trust with your audience.
Keys to Success
In general, have base content that is your reason for appearing but be prepared to discuss other things as podcast discussions tend to be broad and you don’t usually have control of the questions asked.
Providing a one pager describing yourself, topics you are familiar with, and good questions to ask will be a very helpful tool for the podcast host to help navigate the conversation.
Take whatever reasonable steps you can to ensure you have a fast, reliable connection and a good microphone. This will give the impression of professionalism and respect for the host.
One Pager Example:
Scheduling
This is primarily a matter of reaching out to hosts and asking.
Creating a scheduling page from websites such as https://calendly.com/ can smooth out the scheduling process as the host can simply pick a time that works for them.
Things that are worthwhile sharing in your initial contact include:
Main topic you would like to talk about
One-pager describing yourself, and good questions for the host to ask you. (example here)
Examples of previous podcasts, webinars, or speeches/presentations you have given if you have any good ones to share.
