This week’s Fame-Ready episode is a masterclass in landing top-tier podcast interviews — the kind that genuinely move the needle for your personal brand.

Katrina Owens breaks down the exact strategy her clients are using to get booked on top 1% and even top 0.5% global podcasts, including one client who just secured multiple major interviews using Katrina’s signature pitch-and-follow-up method. She walks you through how to research shows properly, avoid the biggest pitching mistakes, and position yourself as a must-have guest — no agency required.

Whether you're podcast-curious or ready to level up from beginner shows to high-authority platforms, this episode gives you the blueprint for booking bigger rooms, bigger audiences, and bigger visibility.

Key Takeaways:

• Why not all podcasts are created equal — and how to identify the ones that match your brand’s stage.
• The difference between high-volume pitching (for beginners) and high-frequency targeted pitching (for established brands).
• The exact process Katrina’s clients use: from researching episodes to drafting a pitch that actually gets opened.
• Why listening to multiple episodes is non-negotiable for a pitch that stands out.
• How to follow up without sounding corporate, desperate, or ignored — including when to slide into a host’s DMs.
• What top podcast hosts hate receiving… and why entitlement kills your chances instantly.
• How seasonality affects booking opportunities — and why November can secretly be a goldmine.
• The subject line mistakes that get your pitch deleted before it's ever read.
• Why developing visibility skills yourself is more powerful than outsourcing to mass-pitch agencies.

If you're ready to elevate your authority and land interviews on the shows your ideal clients actually listen to, this episode hands you the roadmap. Grab your notebook — this one’s juicy.
