Takeaways:

Building a relationship with your podcast guests before the interview can lead to better promotion later. Make it easy for guests to share their episodes by providing direct links and images. As a host, please don't rely solely on guests to promote their episodes; it's not guaranteed. Offering your guests clear and simple promotional tools can encourage them to share your interview. Please tell your guests when their episodes will be released to help them prepare to share. As a guest, promise to promote the episode to increase your chances of being invited back. If you want them to share, the interview should be different than previous interviews.
