Summary

I'm looking for an experienced podcast booking specialist to secure 100+ podcast appearances to support the launch of my nonfiction book, Choose Your Work: Redefine Success and Discover the Work That Makes You Feel Fully Alive. About the book: Choose Your Work is for professionals who are outwardly successful but quietly unfulfilled. It introduces original frameworks (the Curse of Competence, the Awareness Map, the Hour of Possibility, the 1-1-1 Rule) and has been endorsed by psychologists, HR leaders, university professors, and business executives. The cover was designed by the same designer behind Atomic Habits. 273 beta readers gave overwhelmingly strong feedback, with many naming specific people they planned to gift the book to. About me: I'm a Melbourne-based author and career coach with 21 years of experience and 50,000+ people coached. I'm a confident, engaging interview guest and happy to tailor talking points to any show's audience. What I need: - Research and pitch me to 100+ podcasts, with a strong emphasis on high-profile shows in the career, personal development, entrepreneurship, leadership, psychology, and burnout/wellness spaces - Prioritize shows with large, engaged audiences, but also include a healthy mix of mid-tier shows that are easier to book and still reach the right listeners - Handle all outreach, follow-up, scheduling, and coordination - Track all activity in a shared spreadsheet (show name, host, audience size, pitch status, recording date, air date) - Provide a one-sheet or media kit if you have a template you like (I can supply all content) Ideal candidate: - Proven track record booking authors or thought leaders on well-known podcasts (please share examples) - Existing relationships with podcast hosts and producers in the personal development, career, business, or psychology space - Familiar with tools like Podmatch, Podchaser, ListenNotes, or similar - Responsive communicator who provides regular progress updates - Bonus: Experience with book launches specifically Target podcast categories (not exhaustive): - Career change and career development - Personal growth and self-help - Leadership and management - Entrepreneurship and side hustles - Psychology, burnout, and mental wellness - HR, people and culture, coaching - BookTok/book review shows - Parenting (the book includes a bonus chapter for parents) To apply, please include: 1. 3-5 examples of notable podcasts you've booked clients on 2. Your typical process from research to confirmed booking 3. Estimated timeline to reach 100 bookings
