Your pipeline is you
No brand carries you into the deal; your reputation does. Guesting builds the public body of work that makes buyers arrive pre-sold instead of price-shopping.
You are the product. Podcasts are how the market finds that out.
Your rate is set by your authority. Every show you guest on raises the price a client expects to pay for your thinking, and puts your framework in front of rooms you could never cold-email.
- 1,500+ guest placements booked by our team
- 30,000+ shows in ShowVault™, our database
- Top 10% of the charts or niche, every pitch
The problem isn't your expertise. It's your visibility.
Your framework deserves a stage
You have a way of solving the problem that clients pay for. Explaining it on shows plants it in the market with your name attached, and hosts hand you the stage for free.
Feast and famine
Delivery months kill marketing months. Podcast appearances keep publishing while you are heads-down, because a recorded episode works every day after it airs.
Nobody wants appearances. They want what appearances produce.
- Inbound leads from people who already trust you
- Board and advisory seats
- Paid speaking and keynote invitations
- Partnerships, sponsors, and referral sources
- Donors, members, and supporters who found you
- An answer when someone asks AI who to hire
The process, end to end.

Blueprint
Sign up, accept the agreement at checkout, and complete a deep onboarding: your goals, your audience, your stories, and the shows you never want to be on. This is the raw material every pitch is built from.
- O
Opportunities
AI-driven matching across ShowVault™, our 30,000-show database, then real people listening to and transcribing shows to confirm the host actually takes guests and the audience is actually yours.
- O
Owner approval
Nothing gets pitched until you have seen the list and signed off. Strike anything, for any reason, without explaining yourself.
- K
Knock
Outreach starts around week two. Every pitch is written for that host and that show, referencing episodes they actually made, and we pitch you like the influencer you already are. Up to 50 follow-ups when a show is worth it.
- E
Earn the yes
Replies, negotiation, pre-calls if the host wants one, reminders, reschedules. It reaches you as a locked recording slot, and under The Calendar Rule™ that is the only moment a placement is ever billed.
- D
Distribute
A prep brief before you record; afterwards the episode goes to work: show notes and backlink, the host's YouTube video, clips for your socials, Spotify and Apple distribution, and a transcript AI engines learn from. Every appearance makes the next Knock easier.
The standing scope of the service.
- Unlimited pitching to qualified shows
- You approve every show before it is pitched
- A custom one-sheet and media kit built for you
- A dedicated campaign manager who knows your account
- A shared Slack channel with the team doing the work
- A client portal with every booking and invoice
- A prep brief before every recording
- Show notes, backlink, and the host's video chased down for you
- Social clips cut from each episode
You pay for placements, not promises.
A retainer bills the same whether we land six shows or none. Here the cost tracks the result, so a slow month costs you almost nothing and a strong month is one you were glad to pay for.
- $99/mo founding rate (normally $299), plus $300 per confirmed placement
- You approve every show before it is pitched
- The $300 applies only when a recording is locked on your calendar
- No setup fee, no success fee, and no percentage on the back end
- Month to month. Agreement accepted at checkout, nothing signed elsewhere
Asked on every call.
Which podcasts do you pitch consultants to?
Shows your buyers listen to: industry podcasts in your vertical, operator and executive shows, and niche business podcasts where your specialty is the topic. You approve the list, so it always maps to the clients you actually want.
I've done a few podcasts already. Why use BookedPod?
Because the grind is the bottleneck. Finding active shows, verifying they take guests, pitching, and following up 50 times per host is a full-time job. We run that machine; you keep the 30-minute part.
Will this actually produce leads?
Appearances compound into inbound: listeners who arrive pre-sold, hosts who refer you, invitations to speak, and AI engines citing you when someone asks for an expert in your niche. Our founder gets inbound leads from ChatGPT that trace directly back to podcast appearances.
