STEP UP YOUR MARKETING GAME!
Share your message with an audience. Search for conferences in your industry-first attend them to get to know speakers, and then sign up to speak yourself. If you have to travel-do it. Begin building relationships by reaching out to people and planting the seed. Even if they say no to being a guest on your podcast, they may say yes later, or know someone else who is a good fit at that time. Speak up for yourself. Getting your name and your podcast out there is important, don't be afraid to ask your guests to promote, and be clear about when and how.
