I signed up with RadioGuestList having no idea as to the quiality (or not) of the shows seeking speakers or if the subjects would even be relevant to my somewhat unusual niche.
I have been very surprised! I find the leads relevant and the presentation professional. I look forward to getting my email each day and seeing who is seeking my expertise. It’s a great community.

I pitched one of the Radio Guest List shows before Xmas and did an interview. It was great to use the audio as a Xmas gift to my email list. I also love the fact that opportunities are coming into your Inbox, a lot easier than chasing them!
This website has been a great source of ‘earthbound’ and internet opportunities.
I highly recommend it.
Thank you so much. I’ve used this and had great interviews.
