Famous in your field tip: add these items to get more from your interviews, podcasts and webinars.

You’ve been burning up the virtual air waves, spreading your message and information. How do you take that thirty minute spot and multiply it so that hundreds or thousands more can learn from you?

Sure, most people will post a link to the interview or webinar on their website, but that’s about it. Sad, when there’s so much more you can do!

Here’s how to add some jet fuel to really make that publicity opp take off.

1. Write a blog post or entry on your website about it. (Maybe add it to your As Seen In page?)

Include a short description (3 to 5 sentences) that mentions the media outlet, the topic and overview of what you delivered in the interview, podcast or webinar.

2. Create a graphic quote from you related to the topic.

Use PicMonkey, Canva or Pixler to whip up a couple of these.

Being Famous in Your Field is more about PR than PhD

Famous in Your Field tip: create your own visual quotes

3. Offer resources for more information on the topic.

  • Links to tools you mentioned in the interview
  • Related blog posts or articles
  • Books or websites

4. Create a list of takeaways or bullets covered during the interview.

What questions will be answered by listening to the interview or watching the webinar? Make ’em juicy!

5. A link to watch or listen to the interview, with a snappy visual.

Don’t skip out on your chance to make an impact; use an image with your link.

6. Twitter tweets, wrapped up and ready to go. 

Write one or two of the key insights or takeaways from your webinar/interview/podcast as ready-made tweets, so that all the reader has to do is click.

A tool like Click to Tweet makes it super easy.

7. A call to action. 

Below your image with the link to watch your webinar interview or listen to your podcast, let people know what to you want them to do next:

  • Download a PDF?
  • Buy a book?
  • Visit your website to sign up for a free consultation?

Spell it out, loud and proud.

    I love this step x step approach. I love picmonkey to create graphics will have to look at Canva as I’ve never heard of that!

    Yes – this is exactly what I need! Love this idea of creating a visual to share. Since I just did my first interview of someone else to share with my community, I can see how I can use these tips to also make the things I create to spread news of this interview more compelling as well. Hmmm… makes me think, would it be good to have a general style for visuals that I create about others that I interview and then a different style to indicate when the image is related to an interview of me that I am sharing? Thoughts?

    Hi Lori,

    Thank you for the great tips. As of yet, I have not done a Podcast. I’m still learning about them and trying to get out a new product at the same time. It’s a lot to get done!

    I’m going to bookmark this page and refer back to it when I am finally ready to do my Podcast.

    Thanks again for the great tips. 🙂
