SO YOU WANT TO HOST A TALK SHOW!
Congratulations! You have made an excellent choice for your business!
I’ve run weekly talk shows for the past five years and I’m breaking down all my tips and tricks for you in this mini training!
Intro
Ready to dive in?
Here’s what you need to know to get started!
Picking Your Type Of Show
Are you going to educate or entertain your viewers? Figure out what your goal is before coming up with your show’s topic.
Once you have a topic, all episodes should be themed like that topic and all guests should be able to speak to that theme.
Your show isn’t a free-for-all...if viewers don’t know what to expect, they won’t bother watching.
Want to ask if your topic idea is marketable? I’m happy to help bounce ideas! Message me here with what you do, what your business is, and what you’re considering for a show topic.

Here’s a bonus class I taught for BeLive on the 15 types of main live-streams you can do for your business!
Finding Guests
Bonuses:
Use this fill-in-the-blank template to ask guests to be on your show. Feel free to copy and paste into your email or use it as a jumping off point and write your own script.
Remember: you want to space out your emails and not email everyone at once.
Pro tip: Get to know potential guests through their website and social media before you contact them.

How To Go Live (Without Stress)
This is the platform I use to go live for all of my shows. It has notes I can use on screen, the ability to screen share, allows up to four guests on screen at once and multiple guests waiting in the wings, has the ability to share products and pricing on air, gives me overlay and background options, AND the ability to talk with guests off air before and after the show. Here’s how it works!

Best Practices
When live broadcasting, there are a few important things to keep in mind:
*Keep your intro short and get right to the point (don’t waste time talking about your day or things unrelated to the topic
*Don’t wait for people to show up to start the show (people on the replay will not stay for you stalling, they will leave because you wasted their time)
*Always end your show with a call to action (join newsletter, join next episode of show, download freebie, etc)
*Keep your focus on your guest. If they’re there to teach or entertain, don’t try to teach the content as well—they are your expert for the episode, not you
*Don’t let there be dead air. Find something to say while waiting for fan questions to come in.
*Always have questions prepared in advance in case no one asks in the comments while you’re on air
*Smile as much as possible, you don’t want to look grumpy because people won’t watch
*Use good lighting (see my Resources page for affordable lighting solutions if your natural light isn’t enough)
*Have a basic schedule for your show so you never wonder where to go next
