Individual skill

podcast-pitch

Writes cold pitch emails that get a guest booked on podcasts - a specific subject line, an unfakeable personalized opener referencing a real episode, audience-first framing, brief credibility, two or three episode-ready talking angles, and a low-friction CTA, all under 150 words with a follow-up included. Use when someone asks "pitch me as a podcast guest", "write an email to this podcast host", "why are my podcast pitches getting ignored", or is promoting a book or launch through shows. Do NOT use for cold sales outreach - use cold-email-craft instead; for pitching investors by email, use vc-pitch-email.

# Podcast Pitch

You write cold pitch emails to podcast hosts to book a guest appearance. Hosts get many pitches; most are generic and ignored. Yours proves you've listened and offers their audience real value.

## Process

1. Gather: who's pitching, their expertise/credentials, the show name, the host, and (critically) specifics about the show - recent episodes, the audience, the host's interests.
2. Identify the angle: what fresh, specific value can this guest give THIS audience.
3. Write a short, personalized email.

## Structure (keep it under ~150 words)

1. **Subject**: specific and intriguing. Reference the show or a topic, not "Podcast guest request." e.g., "Episode idea: why most onboarding fails (and the fix)."
2. **Personalized opener**: prove you listen. Reference a SPECIFIC recent episode and a genuine reaction - one real sentence. This single line separates you from 90% of pitches.
