Are you lacking the confidence to make sales because your email list is small? Maybe you're contemplating if people would even pay for your digital product? Put yourself in the shoes of the customer for a second and ask yourself: When you purchase something online, do you know what you're really paying for? “Well, I bought this because I need to do this… or that…” Is that really the ONLY reason behind the purchase? Sometimes people confuse the real selling point of a digital product as just the product itself. Yes, they need your product to do this and that, but your digital product delivers something more than what that product description is saying… A product allows your customer to gain: The time to do the things they want. Convenience or ease of use. Confidence and support. Peace of mind and leadership. Your product or what you're creating / what you're about to create, is a part of a greater purpose, which is why you should step up and share this with others who need it to improve their quality of life. Your email list, no matter how small, have people who believe in you and the results your product will deliver. They look to you for guidance, so be confident with your role as the leader because YOU do have what it takes and YOU can help so many by leading them towards their next step. And this is why you can still make big sales even if you have a small email list!

Today's guest on the podcast is long-time Flipped Lifestyle community member, Ben Pugh! Ben is the host of the IMPACT: Parenting with Perspective podcast, where his mission is to help parents who are struggling with their teens and want a better relationship. Ben has a successful business in which he coaches parents, but he is trying to transition from 1-on-1 coaching into a membership model. Shane Sams and Ben discuss different approaches that Ben can take to build his membership, which currently has 5 paying members. Ben's membership is a bit complicated because he has partners who are also involved, so how can they best serve their members, and how much should they be charging for group coaching, individual coaching, and the membership?

THE BENEFITS OF A PODCAST INTERVIEW An interview on your podcast can be a powerful way to grow your audience, increase your reputation, and generate revenue. However, it can't be any interview. Be strategic with your interviews. Many clients come to me struggling to gain clients from their podcast. When we first met, my most recent client told me she loves doing her podcast, but it has hit a plateau. The audience wasn't growing and she it wasn't producing any new clients. It is a struggle I hear quite often. Finding room during the podcast to attract clients is difficult when you are trying to make your guest look great. When you interview a guest, they are likely on your show to promote their product or service. It is a challenge to find an opportunity to promote your business at the same time. So, how can you leverage a podcast interview to grow your business. It start with your selection of guests. There are four types of guests you can interview on your podcast. INTERVIEW CURRENT CLIENTS First, you can interview current clients. The stories of your current clients will help your listeners envision how they might benefit from the same outcome. Get your guest to tell the story of where they were before you started to work together. Have them describe what they discovered through your relationship and the transformation they experienced. Finally, have them tell you where they are today. Your listeners will be able to see themselves in your guest. That will allow you to invite listeners to work with you for the same results. Shane and Jocelyn Sams do this on their Flipped Lifestyle podcast. They often bring on members of their online community. The interview is all about the results they are getting in the membership. Shane will ask about their struggles and lead them to even more resources in the program. This is a great way to demonstrate exactly what your program accomplishes. INTERVIEW POTENTIAL CLIENTS Next, you can interview potential clients. This is a great way to open doors. Rather than doing a free coaching call, invite listeners to be coached on your show. Zoe Routh interviews potential clients. She works with busy CEOs and finds it difficult to get past the gate keeper to get an appointment. On the other hand, she has very little trouble inviting those busy CEOs to be interviewed on her podcast. Once she has established a relationship, she can begin discussing the potential of working together. INTERVIEW PARTNERS Another option is to interview JV and affiliate partners. Your podcast is a great stage you can share with others. Interview swaps are a powerful way to get exposure to other audiences. Not only can you get exposure when you interview partners, you can generate revenue through affiliate commissions. Simply encourage your listeners to purchase your guest's products or services through your affiliate link. Sadie and Sausha do this on the Meathead Test Kitchen podcast. They talk about the products and services they use and love. Sadie and Sausha will interview the creators of those products. At the end, they direct people to their website to buy it. INTERVIEW REPUTATION BOOSTERS Finally, you can interview influencers who can improve your brand and reputation. These interviews won't directly increase your revenue. However, it will boost your brand. When you interview a well-known individual in your niche, you benefit by association. Your mom always told you about guilt by association. When you hang out with the bad kids, people assume you're one of the bad kids. Same is true with your podcast. When you hang out with the cool kids, people think you're one of the cool kids. If you can land a big name for your podcast, take the interview. It might help you with search. Your association with the person will elevate your reputation. And it can possibly open doors for you in the future. INTERVIEW THE CORRECT WAY Once you have the right person on your show, you need to conduct the interview in a way that engages your listeners. Make it a conversation rather than a question and answer session. Nobody wants to listen to an interrogation. Instead, have a meaningful conversation. It only requires a few great questions and attentive listening. Listen and ask great follow-up questions. Get your guests to tell great stories through the questions you ask. Shape the story by learning how to politely interrupt. Prevent your guest from dominating the conversation. Remember, it is your show. Control it. When they begin to ramble, jump in with something like, "Hold on, let's unwrap that a bit. You said it only takes 15 minutes. If I'm working a full-time job, how can I make that happen?" With that polite interruption, you're telling the guest you're really interested in something they just said. You stop them from rambling. And, you refocus the conversation. Control the flow. INTERVIEW QUESTIONS You can get help shaping your interview questions. Download my 17 Ultimate Podcast Interview Questions. You can download it for free at http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/interview. These questions are designed to get your guests to tell stories. The questions can be tailored to any niche or interview. Over my 30 years in radio, I've had the great fortune of interviewing people like Blake Shelton, Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, and others. These questions have been developed and refined from those years of interviewing. You can now benefit without all the trial and error. LEAVE SPACE Finally, invite your listeners to work with you. As you conduct your interviews, leave space to promote yourself. When I record an interview, I will wrap it with an open and close. First, I record the interview. At the end, I determine the big takeaway of the conversation. Then, I will record an introduction to the interview where I teach around that big takeaway. If my client is a visibility expert, I'll teach why it's important to find new listeners by being visible everywhere. The interview then becomes a case study or "how to" around my teaching. Before I introduce the guest, I'll invite listeners to start down my funnel. I'll offer a lead magnet or invite listeners to a strategy call, so I can serve them even more. After the interview, I close with the other half of the wrap. I thank the guest, recap the offer the guest made, and invite people to come back next week. This allows me to get my call to action into the episode before the interview even starts. Now, I don't have to fight for promotion time as I interview. Get your call to action in your episode early. It needs to happen before the interview. Do it early, because 50% of your listeners don't make it to the end of your episode. They are listening while they are doing other things. When they done doing whatever they are doing, they stop listening. Mention your call to action early, so you don't miss your audience. EFFECTIVELY INTERVIEW To create powerful interviews, be selective with your guests. Then, use the right questions to interview effectively. Finally, promote your business before the interview even starts.

Conducting interviews is an art. And, you can learn to produce better interviews with just a few steps. Today, I'll give you four ways to create better interviews. I also have examples for you to help you make progress. Then, I'm going to give you a great deal on my course How To Crush Your Next Podcast Interview Like A Radio Pro Without Decades Of Training And Hours Of Preparation. Just for being a listener, you'll get over half off the course. STORIES The first way to create great interviews is to not make it an interview. In my course, pop star Jason Derulo says he hates interviews. He would rather have a conversation. The key to engaging interviews is the art of the story. Get your guest to tell authentic stories. Shane Sams is the host of the Flipped Lifestyle podcast. He helps real families create a membership site and make their living online. In this episode, he shares a great story about his son Isaac. Shane was being real and authentic. It takes courage to be that raw. That's why few people do it and why it will make you stand out from everyone else. When you share your authentic self with your listeners, you show that you trust them. The law of reciprocity will kick in and they will begin trusting you. THE SPACE The next way to create better podcast interviews is that space that Shane left in his episode. So many podcasters want to edit out that silence. When you edit out the silence, you sterilize the story. The silence will cause your listener to lean in. It catches their attention. Your listener will also try to predict what will happen next. That anticipation is exciting. They naturally want to close the loop. Have you ever watched American Idol, America's Got Talent, or any of the other reality shows like it? You know the host is going to pause longer than natural. Yet you still lean in and want the answer even more. The same is true with your podcast. Create anticipation by leaving in the pregnant pause. Let me give you an example. Alex Hormozi hosts a podcast called The Game. He published a fantastic book called "$100M Offers". His new book "$100M Leads" will be released during an online event on August 19th. Get the details at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/100M. Alex was recently interviewed on Diary of a CEO with host Steven Bartlett. He then repurposed an edited, shortened version of that interview on his podcast. These two versions will give you a great example of how the conversation is affected by removing the silence. Here is a bit of the original version. Can you feel the emotion build up in Alex as he is talking about the impact his wife has had on him? You could cut that emotion with a knife. The host Steven Bartlett did an amazing job NOT talking. Rather than jumping in because he was uncomfortable in the silence, Steven let it sit there. He let the listener feel the emotion. That was fantastic. True pro. Now, this is a sterilized version from Alex's episode with the silence shortened. Notice how the anticipation is sucked out of this version. Can you see how removing the silence completely wipes out the emotion. INCLUDE YOUR LISTENER Next, treat your listener like they are sitting right there next to you. Bring your listener in as the 3rd party to the conversation. Your listener isn't part of a group or "everybody out there". They are listening to you typically with ear buds or alone in their car. Your podcast is a very intimate conversation. They aren't "out there". You are in their head having this conversation. When you say "everyone" or "hey guys" or use terms like "out there", you separate your listener from the conversation. They will think, "Who is everyone? I'm sitting here by myself." Include them in the conversation. Don't leave them "out there". Here is an example from the Flipped Lifestyle podcast again. By using "everyone out there", the host just removed us from the conversation. We aren't part of the clique. Now here is another example from the same episode. The host does a great job simply turning his focus from Jason the guest to us as the listener. When the host says "do what Jason did", he is speaking directly to me as a listener. He speaks to one person rather than everyone. This will make your interviews connect in a powerful way with your listeners. FRAME THEN ASK My final tip is regarding a misstep I hear many podcasters make. When we are conducting an interview, we spend a lot of time thinking about our next question rather than having a conversation. When there is a pause or the guest finishes their answer, we jump in with the next question. Then we try to add context to the question or we give multiple choice answers to help the guest better understand what we are trying to say. By the time we are done qualifying the question, we've either asked two more questions and completely confused our guest, or they have forgotten the original question. Instead, have a conversation. Give context and set up the question. Then ask it. Here is a sample from Daymond John's podcast That Moment when he is interviewing Barbara Corcoran. Daymond says, "Where does the tunnel vision come from?" He then offers a ton of clarifying comments. That eventually leads him to ask, "Do you realize that's a gift or no?" Add the context and clarifying comments before you ask the question. THE COURSE These are just four tips to producing better interviews.
