Pro Tips 💁♂️
- Post this on your personal LinkedIn profile on the drop date if you have more followers than your company page at the time. Re-share the post on your company page too if originated on your personal profile (or vice versa). Make sure to also email and text your guest to let them know the episode is published and promoted to encourage them to do the same. Send them all the media assets and encourage their marking team to repurpose the content. See the email example below.
- Tag any people how were related to the content, relationship with the guest, or in your newtork who would appreciate the content in the comments to bring them into the conversation after the post.
- Replace #HastagOne+Two+Three+Four with the main topics of your podcast and that specific episode. I don’t obsess over hashtags, but they’re helpful to have to increase your chances of discovery on social media by a prospect interested in your topics.

Pro Tips 💁♂️
Post these quote graphics about a week or so after you post the episode for additional exposure and another touchpoint with your guest + audience.
Use a social media management platform like Buffer, Hootsuite, Loomly, or Cloud Campaign to publish content and measure engagement all in one place. We’ve been using Buffer but will be launching a trial with Cloud Campaign soon. These are all very similar platforms so it’s a matter of choice and preference as to which one is best for you.
