Are you interested in recording your own interviews?

Here’s some expert interview tips and tricks I recorded for you – and please do let me know if you have any extra questions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myKV04QdBGk

And here’s a handy topic by topic guide:

Interviews

> 1-2 weeks before the call: a tech brief
_ the zoom + phone method

> Before the call: pre-interview
_ Priority: make the interviewee feel safe and comfortable
_ Brief (optional): before the interview proper, we’re going to get some stuff out of the way (name, title, what working with)
_ Is there a question you’d like to be asked? (also optional)

> Interview
_ Basics out of the way
_ Interview – have prepared questions
_ Follow-ups, heart of the interview
_ Self-insertions, depending on format
_ Common courtesy: ask for links (can be done during ‘basics out of the way’)

> Post interview-editing
_ Natural VS sleek (no breathing, no pauses), depends on format
_ Good practice: start with interesting snippets, hooks
_ Podcast/interview intro less than 10 seconds
