Before you pitch a show

Answer for how things are today. Runs in your browser. Nothing is sent.

Past appearances

Do you have a list of your past podcast appearances with a link to each episode?

Could a host confirm each appearance from the show's public feed?

Is each appearance listed with the show name, episode title and date?

Topics and questions

Can you name the three topics you speak on best?

Is each topic stated as something a listener would learn, rather than a job title?

Do you have sample questions a host could use as they are?

Can you say plainly what audience you reach yourself?

Audio and delivery

Do you have a short audio clip of you speaking on a show?

Can you record with a dedicated microphone in a quiet room?

Is everything a host needs in one place you can send as a single link?

Choosing shows

Do you choose shows by their audience and topics rather than their download numbers?

Have you listened to at least one episode of each show before pitching it?

Does each pitch say why that show's audience would care about your topic?

Do you keep a record of which shows you have pitched and what they said?

Answer the questions to see your score. It updates as you go.

Method: yes scores a question in full, partly scores half and no scores nothing. Each is weighted from one to three by how much a host relies on it when deciding, and the score is the weighted share, as a percentage. Unanswered questions are left out.
