[HOST NAME], I’d love to come on [PODCAST NAME].

Thanks for scanning the code. I hope you enjoyed the letter. I thought it might make a welcome change from the typical cold outreach.

The front of a real US one-dollar bill
From Philipp Humm

I wanted to get in touch because [a genuine reason for choosing this podcast]. In your conversation with [GUEST] about [TOPIC], [the specific moment that interested me and how it relates to my work].

Philipp Humm

I teach storytelling and communication, and I’ve worked with teams at Google, Oracle, Salesforce, Visa, and many others. I’ve also written three bestselling books.

Before that, I worked at Bain & Company and Uber, and earned my MBA at Columbia Business School.

Here’s an example of me talking about [RELEVANT VIDEO TOPIC]:

For your show, I thought we could explore questions like these:

  1. Why do we become less interesting the harder we try to sound professional?
  2. How do you get people to care about a good idea?
  3. What can you do when your mind goes blank halfway through an answer?

Those are a few possibilities, but you know your listeners best. If there’s another question or angle you’ve been wanting to explore, I’d be interested in hearing it.

If we do record together, I’d want to introduce my audience to your show as well. Over two million people follow my work, and I reach more than 50 million people a month. When the episode goes live, I’d share it with my audience and link to the full conversation.

I’m already planning the episode, and I haven’t even given you a chance to reply.

You can email me or give me a call. I’d love to hear what you have in mind for [PODCAST NAME].
