When I had the chance to interview Dorien Morin-van Dam about her podcasting strategies I KNEW that one of my questions was going to be "How do you continue to find amazing guests to be on your show week after week?"

I've been managing podcasts for almost three years now and I have seen the hurdles that comes when hosts are facing down a week without a guest ready to go. So what was the secret to her success?

She shares with me her strategies in the episode but I dive deeper into them here and offer my own insights into how I have been sourcing guests for my show as well.

I'll cover how to leverage your intake form, in-person networking, and cold outreach to fill your calendar with intentional and exciting guests. And we’ll discuss how to make it easy for potential guests to say yes to your invitation.

Let me know if any of these methods have worked for you! And if you have a different way of finding guests for your podcast, let me know I would love to share them!
