Event description (body)
I read the pitches. Here's what gets a yes.
Podcast guesting is one of the few kinds of visibility you can't buy your way into. Someone has to say yes — which makes the pitch the whole game, and most pitches lose it in the first line.
I've hosted more than a hundred conversations on The Motivate Collective and read the pitches that landed alongside a great many that didn't. There are clear patterns in both, and almost none of them come down to how impressive the person was.
What we'll cover
What hosts screen for in the first ten seconds, and the openers that end it there
Building a target list around your audience rather than your ego
Pitch structure, length, and what to attach
Preparing so you're the guest who gets asked back
Speaking in clips without sounding rehearsed
Making one appearance earn for months afterwards
What you'll leave with
A pitch email template
A one-page guest media kit template
A show research tracker
A clear sense of what to say yes and no to
Who it's for
Speakers, coaches, founders, practitioners and consultants building a brand who want earned visibility — and would rather be interviewed than advertise.60 minutes plus live Q&A. $35. TMC members attend and receive the replay at no extra cost.
Both September and October sessions — $60.

Event description (body)
Own the conversation in your market.
Most business owners have considered a podcast and decided against it — too expensive, too slow, and you'd need someone to run it. None of those hold up anymore.
There's a five-step stack that takes a show from nothing to published: booking, recording, publishing, distribution, and a pipeline that brings guests to you. Setup takes roughly three hours. You or your assistant can build it in an afternoon.
I've published more than a hundred episodes running this system solo, alongside two other businesses. Not because I had a producer — because the stack does the work a producer used to.
What we'll cover
The business case for a podcast over another content channel
The three-hour build, walked through live: Calendly, Riverside, Squarespace, AI-assisted repurposing, Threads
Threads as a guest pipeline — the part almost nobody sets up
Turning one conversation into a fortnight of content
Guests as your warmest business leads
What you'll leave with
The three-hour build checklist
A kit list with actual prices
A guest outreach template
The repurposing workflow
Who it's for
Business owners, founders, coaches and practitioners who want a marketing channel they own — without the budget or appetite for a production team.60 minutes plus live Q&A. $35. TMC members attend and receive the replay at no extra cost.
Both October and September sessions — $60. Pairs with Guest on Podcasts to Grow Your Brand (8 October).

Sept 2026 Online Workshop
Save Time and Money in Business — Systems You Can Get Now
with Robbie Mattei, Founder of Empire Ventures
Robbie Mattei arrived in Sydney with a one-way ticket and $3,000 to his name. Today, he owns multiple businesses, runs an AI incubator, and is building toward a mission of acquiring or building 10 companies in 10 years. His focus is on leverage — specifically, using AI and automation to break the link between your time and your income. In this session, Robbie shares the exact systems he uses to run his own businesses with less manual effort: what to automate first, how to spot the bottlenecks quietly draining your week, and how to build platforms and processes that work for you around the clock. No theory, no scripts — just what's working right now.
