Publicity Waves Emanating from Internet Talk Radio

By Theo McLanahan

If you turn on the television during the morning or late night, you will see celebrities on talk shows promoting their latest movie, television show or album. Talk shows are a great way to promote their product. The celebrity has a chance to be interviewed and show the audience a sneak peak at their new release. If the audience likes what they see or hear, they will buy the product.

An individual working as an Internet Marketer is probably not going to be interviewed by or allowed to advertise on any big time, network produced talk show. They can still get a message about their business out to more people by being booked for an Internet talk radio show, which many websites now run with the help of podcasting.

The site owner's guests join the site owner via telephone and the conversations are recorded and uploaded to the site for download. The interviews may be conducted one on one or over a conference line full of live listeners.

Internet talk radio shows are easier to produce, since available technology makes the recording process quite simple. In fact, a Google search for "Internet talk radio" produces over 190,000 results.

The recordings can be accessed at any time, so listeners can listen when it is convenient for them. Some websites may charge a fee to access the recordings, but many of the Internet Talk Radio shows are free to listen to.

Finding an Internet talk radio show that will appeal to your target customers is not difficult, since there is such an abundance of them online. Use a search engine to find the talk show that will most appeal to your market.

When you find a radio show that you are interested in being a guest on, send the host a press release. A press release is a document containing your contact information and some general information about your business and any special events or offers that you are promoting.

An Internet talk radio show is one excellent place to promote your products or services. You can promote anything that your business sells, tangible or otherwise, by being a guest on an Internet talk radio show. - 16747
