Podcasting is having a moment

Be the guest worth booking. Host the show worth staying for.

If your business, your book, or your message depends on what you say in front of a microphone, you can't afford to wing it. There's a playbook. It's the one network television has used for decades. Now it's yours.

Sides of the mic, one playbook

Most people walk away from the mic with nothing.

The guest gives "good" answers, posts the episode on LinkedIn, and hears silence. No book sales. No clients. No momentum. The host presses record, asks the questions everyone asks, and wonders why episode 40 has the same downloads as episode 4.

The mic isn't the problem. The edit isn't the problem. The interview is the problem, on both sides of it, and it's the one part of podcasting nobody teaches.

There's a different way. It's the craft used inside network broadcast every single day, and it's never been packaged for podcasters until now.

"Casting is having a moment. The people who capture it won't be the loudest. They'll be the most prepared."

Choose your side of the mic.

Most people eventually take both.

For guests

Podcast Guest Advantage

You're in the green room of someone else's show. In the next 45 minutes you need to be magnetic, quotable, and useful, and turn listeners into people who follow up. Without sounding like a sales pitch.

For authors, coaches, consultants, founders, and experts with something to promote.

For hosts

Podcast Host Advantage

You press record and ask the questions. The difference between a forgettable show and one guests beg to come back to isn't gear or graphics. It's how you interview. That's a skill, and it can be taught.

For new and existing hosts who want bigger guests, better episodes, and clips that travel.

Who's teaching

Jess Todtfeld

Thirteen years as a network television producer at ABC, NBC, and FOX. I sat in the seat where the decisions get made about who comes on, what gets asked, and which moment becomes the clip everyone shares the next morning.

Then I went to the other side of the mic and set a Guinness World Record for the most radio interviews given in 24 hours. 112 of them. I know what it takes to face a microphone again and again and deliver every single time.

Since 2007, I've trained executives, authors, and experts at the highest level of communication. Now that training is packaged for the people who need it most: anyone whose next opportunity depends on what they say into a mic.

What people say after training with Jess

"I went from dreading interviews to looking forward to them. The frameworks Jess teaches are the difference between sounding like an expert and sounding like a guest."

"My podcast episodes used to flatline at 200 downloads. After applying what Jess teaches about interviewing, three of my last five episodes crossed 5,000."

Common questions

I'm not on podcasts yet. Is this still for me?

Yes. Guest Advantage teaches you how to be magnetic when you do get on, which is the foundation everything else is built on. The workbook also includes booking strategies you can apply right away.

I host a podcast. Will Guest Advantage help me too?

Probably yes. Being a great guest makes you a better host, and the other way around. But if you mostly run your own show, Host Advantage is where to start. Most hosts eventually grab both.

Is there a guarantee?

30 days, money back, on every course. Go through the material, apply it, and if you don't see the difference, email us for a full refund.

How do the courses work?

Self-paced video lessons plus a workbook that lets you find what you need fast. Lifetime access. Come back whenever you have a big interview coming up.

Do you offer 1:1 coaching or team training?

Yes. Book a quick chat and we'll see if it's the right fit.

Stop winging it on the mic.

The podcast moment is real. The opportunity is real. The only question is whether you walk into your next interview prepared the way the pros are, or hope it goes well.
