Letting Your Inspiration Flow - Dave Will - Creating the Greatest Show - Episode # 002
Today’s guest is a serial Entrepreneur, an innovative leader, and an expert communicator. Host of Association Strong and for 7+ years EO 360 podcast, Dave Will is the Co-Founder and CEO of PropFuel. Dave joins host Casey Chesire to sit down and talk about how you can let your inspiration shine through in a podcast and be a good listener.
Takeaways:
- A podcast needs to be formatted like a face-to-face conversation over coffee or drinks. If it’s too highly produced it will lose the human element of the show.
- When listening to a podcast, you want to feel like you are sitting down with the host and being a part of the conversation.
- It is important to have people on the podcast that are easily found on Google to do background research so the host knows who they are talking to beforehand.
- Ask questions you can’t learn on the internet about a guest. Ask about their feelings and childhood experiences, it will help to develop a better relationship.
- Focus on the character, not the status of the person being interviewed. Oftentimes the character lies under the surface which can make for a great conversation.
- You want to keep your introduction to the guest short and to the point. That way they can talk about their own accomplishments and awards.
- It’s okay to not always hit every prepared question and only focus on two or three during the podcast.
Quote of the Show:
2:59 “To me a podcast really needs to be conversational, like a radio show. And I think if it's too highly produced or too structured, it loses the human element.”
