Episode notes
Two Sides Of One Year
- Robert Glazer describes a year of heavy rejection while launching a book and pursuing podcasts and speaking gigs.
- He contrasts that with simultaneous wins like 50+ podcast appearances and strong book sales to show both sides of the same story.
Persist With Personalized Follow-Up
- Follow up repeatedly because many yeses come on second or third outreach attempts.
- Personalize messages rather than mass BCC pitches to increase response rates.
Six Emails Later, A Booking
- Mick Sloan shares an example of emailing a prior client six or seven times before getting a positive response.
- The client eventually replied that they'd kept the advanced copy on their desk for months and then booked a talk.
