Shownotes
Dustin is discussing an increasingly popular topic of whether you should pay to be a guest on someone else's podcast. While many shows are starting to charge fees, he shares why he believes this is usually not a good idea. From his own experiences and insights from hundreds of clients, Dustin discusses how podcast guesting should be a win-win-win relationship between the guest, host, and audience, and how introducing fees can undermine this dynamic. I explore practical considerations and potential exceptions, but for most entrepreneurs, the answer is simple: Don’t pay to play.
