Getting Featured on Podcasts with Christina Lenkowski

Did you know that more Americans listen to podcasts every week than have Netflix accounts? Or that podcast audiences have grown by 30% in the past three years… and are continuing to grow? The appetite for podcasts is only getting bigger, and this is a major marketing opportunity for your business!

Appearing on other people’s podcasts is an incredible way to grow your audience, build your thought leadership and credibility, and attract new leads — even if you don’t have your own podcast! By choosing podcasts with audiences made up of your dream clients, you can turn an hour on the microphone into a powerful (and often long-lasting) source of aligned leads!
