Today I’m talking with Ann-Marie Tamrowski, a podcast manager who specializes in podcast pitching. She shares with us some tools and strategies to make the process of podcast pitching smoother and less time-consuming. We discuss specific workflow and research tools, practical tips on how to make your pitches stand out, and how to research and find shows to pitch to.
Ann-Marie Tamrowski is a Podcast Manager and Guest Strategist that helps service pros and creatives build authority for their brand through podcast guest and media outreach. She does this by providing an aligned done-for-you podcast pitch framework that takes away the soul-sucking tasks so they can feel confident to pitch themselves with ease. When she’s not booking interviews, you can find her advocating for mental health, reading non-fiction, listening to podcasts, camping with family, and tap dancing for fun.
