Here are some best practices for creating your script and talking points for podcasters. Please note you can send different shows different notes if you require.

Script

Intro: Begin with provoking questions or statements about your brand or product.

Talking Points: List key brand/product benefits + features.

Call To Action: State the clear direction you want the listeners to take, such as visiting your website or to use a special offer. (vanity links, promo codes, Text SMS, etc.)

Talking Points

Please list 5-10 bullet points that the host can touch upon in their read. Please include relevant product features, benefits or how to use your product of brand.

* Hosts will put your talking points in their own voice + personal perspective to help the ad resonate with their audience, alternating through talking points if they're doing multiple ads.

Promo Codes

A promo code will need to be created for each podcaster (we suggest doing the name of the show and discount. (For example - OSSA15)

For best results, we suggest offering podcaster listeners an incentive that is more attractive than any current website sales, email sign-ups, etc.

*Make sure the URLs or promo codes are set up to accept both lowercase and uppercase variations.
