Episode 317 - How To Be Memorable - Introduce Yourself as a Guest on a podcast or when meeting someone new



To make a memorable introduction as a guest on a podcast or when meeting someone new, consider the following strategies:

Key Elements of a Memorable Introduction


Start with Your Current Role:



  • Clearly state your current title and what you do. This grounds the listener in your expertise.

  • Example: “I’m a digital marketing strategist helping brands connect with their audiences through innovative campaigns.”


Highlight Your Experience:



  • Briefly mention how long you've been in your field or any significant experiences that shaped your expertise.

  • Example: “With over 10 years in the industry, I’ve worked with startups to Fortune 500 companies.”



Include Notable Achievements:



  • If applicable, mention any awards, recognitions, or publications that lend credibility.

  • Example: “I was named one of the top 30 marketers to watch by Marketing Magazine last year.”



Be Personal and Approachable:



  • Share something relatable about yourself to create a connection.

  • Example: “When I’m not strategizing marketing campaigns, you can find me hiking with my dog or experimenting with new recipes.”



End with Enthusiasm:



  • Conclude your introduction with excitement about the conversation ahead.

  • Example: “I’m thrilled to be here and can’t wait to dive into today’s topic!”



Structure for Podcast Introductions


When introducing yourself on a podcast, consider this structure:



  • Greeting: Start with a friendly hello.

  • Your Name and Role: Clearly state who you are and what you do.

  • Key Highlights: Mention your experience and achievements succinctly.

  • Personal Touch: Add a relatable fact about yourself.

  • Transition to the Topic: Express enthusiasm for the discussion.



Example Introduction

“Hi everyone! I’m [Your Name], a digital marketing strategist with over 10 years of experience helping brands connect with their audiences.


I was recently featured in Marketing Magazine as one of the top marketers to watch.


Outside of work, I love hiking and trying out new recipes. I’m really excited to discuss [Podcast Topic] today!”


By following these guidelines, you can create an introduction that is not only informative but also engaging, making it easier for others to remember you.
