The story for International Podcast Day

The services that run International Podcast Day

Each service is $500 a month a la carte. Run one or run the set.

  1. 1

    Media Placements That Build Authority

    Places you in features and interviews tied to the date, where the same story gets a second and third life beyond the first link.

    First move: Send the angle to shows recording two to four weeks ahead of the date.

  2. 2

    Become the Face People Trust Before They Buy

    Puts a named human behind the story. Journalists quote people, not companies, and a founder with a track record gets the callback.

    First move: Update the founder bio and headshot the press will use.

  3. 3

    Digital PR & Content Scripting That Strengthens Authority

    Owns the pitch. Turns your first-party numbers into a story an editor can run without calling you for more, then sends it to the outlets that cover this date every year.

    First move: Pull the one number from your own records that nobody else can publish, then write the pitch around it.
