The Ultimate Showdown: Hosting vs. Guesting on Podcasts

In this episode of the Cashflow Fight Club podcast, we dive into an exciting debate on whether it's more beneficial to host your own podcast or be a guest on others.

On the guesting side, we have Trevor 'the podcast guesting guru' Oldham from Podcasting You, who has booked thousands of podcast interviews and champions guest appearances for brand exposure.

The discussion covers key aspects like reach and exposure, time and resource commitment, and the benefits each approach offers. Tune in to gain valuable insights and decide which strategy suits you best.
