Podcasting: Create Real Connections that Matter (Ft. Kristin Molenaar)

  • Summary

  • DTRH Episode 52  Podcasting: Create Real Connections that Matter Ft. Kristin Molenaar Podcasting is a fun yet challenging way to make genuine long-term connections. Whether you're podcasting for business or pleasure—they're great for finding new clients or partners. It's an effective way to build strong relationships quickly. Invite your #1 prospect as a guest on your podcast. By the end (assuming all went well), it's almost guaranteed they'll be open to talking business with you. 

     

    Key Takeaways: 

    1. Focus on providing value to educate listeners—do not flaunt your status... NO ONE CARES!  People listen to podcasts for a few reasons: educate themselves, entertain themselves, or improve actions/behavior. No one cares how many awards you've won, how successful you are, or how much money you make. It's irrelevant and comes off as egotistical and arrogant.   
    2. Never sell or pitch anything... Again, NO ONE CARES!  People do not listen to podcasts to hear a sales pitch. They would talk to one of the million sales reps who are constantly hounding them over their LinkedIn DMs to have that kind of experience. 
    3. Publish podcast episodes consistently—never "forget" to post an episode.  If you're a podcaster and publish episodes weekly, be sure to release them at the exact same time on the same day, NO MATTER WHAT. If you skip a beat, your listenership will drop like a rock. 
    4. Use dialogue to build and strengthen your relationship with the host or guest.  The conversation between the host(s) and guest(s) is generally quite intimate. Podcasts are a fantastic way to truly get to know people and make a strong, genuine connection in a short period of time. Use that to your advantage, whether you're the one hosting or featuring. 

     

    "Dig deep. Focus on your existing connections instead of [trying to build] additional surface-level relationships."
