PodPitchIs every pitch different?
Yes. PodPitch writes a personal pitch for each host rather than sending one message to everyone.
How it works
How PodPitch works
PodPitch searches a database of podcasts, picks shows that match your topic, writes a personal pitch for each host and sends it from your own email.
You choose how hands-on to be. In approve mode, every pitch waits for your OK. On autopilot, PodPitch sends pitches for you. Either way, hosts get a message from your address, and their replies come back to your inbox rather than to an agency's.
Matched show
Matches your topic- From
- You, from your own email
- To
- The host of a matched show
- Subject
- A guest idea for your listeners
Hi [host name],
Your recent episode on [a topic from the show] stuck with me. I work on [your topic], and I think your listeners would get a lot from a conversation about [a specific angle].
[A short line on who you are]
This pitch waits for your OK before it is sent from your email.
The PodPitch process, step by step
Start with your topic
Tell PodPitch what you talk about. Everything that follows is matched to that topic.
PodPitch searches its podcast database
Instead of you scrolling directories, PodPitch searches a database of podcasts for you.
It picks shows that match
From that search, PodPitch picks the shows that match your topic, so you only pitch where you fit.
It writes a personal pitch for each host
Each host gets their own pitch. No single template goes out to everyone.
You approve, or it runs on autopilot
Review and approve each pitch, or let PodPitch send without waiting for you.
Pitches go out from your own email
Hosts see a message from you. When they reply, you answer directly from your inbox.
Approve or autopilot: which should you choose?
| Question | Approve | Autopilot |
|---|---|---|
| What happens | Each pitch waits for you to approve it | PodPitch sends pitches without waiting for you |
| Sent from | Your own email | Your own email |
| Good when | You want to check every word, or a client needs to sign off | Your calendar is full and you want outreach to keep moving |
| Your time | A quick review of each pitch | Very little until hosts reply |
Questions about how PodPitch works
Where do the podcasts come from?
PodPitch searches a database of podcasts and picks the shows that match your topic.
Why send from my own email?
Hosts get a message from a real person, and their replies come straight to you, so you can carry on the conversation yourself.
Do I still do the interview?
Yes. PodPitch handles finding shows and pitching hosts. The conversation on the show is yours.
What makes PodPitch matches and pitches useful
Matched by topic, written per host, sent by you
PodPitch combines the three things that make a guest pitch work. Shows are picked because they match your topic, so the host has a reason to care. Each pitch is written for that host, so it does not read like a mass email. And it arrives from your own email, so it comes from a real person the host can reply to.
Approve mode keeps you in charge of every message. Autopilot keeps outreach going when you are busy. Either way, PodPitch does the research and writing that usually take the most time.
