# Unlocking the Secrets to Securing Media Interviews for Your Business
Written on
Chapter 1: The Value of Media Interviews
Securing media interviews can be a game-changer for your business. They not only enhance your visibility on search engines like Google but also establish you as an authority in your field. Furthermore, these interviews can serve as a powerful tool to attract traffic to your website.
I have successfully participated in various formats, including television, radio, and podcasts. By generating numerous interviews, I have been able to avoid spending on advertising for my PR business. Most of my clientele comes from referrals or individuals who have encountered my work. This demonstrates the immense potential of media exposure.
When approaching media opportunities, it’s essential to broaden your understanding of what constitutes "media." Many individuals limit their perspective to traditional formats like television and radio. In today's landscape, digital magazines, podcasts, blogs, and independent video shows play an equally vital role. Always maintain an open mindset and don’t get preoccupied with metrics such as views or downloads; every appearance contributes to your visibility. I've participated in podcasts that were newly launched, and I always give them my utmost effort, regardless of their audience size.
Section 1.1: Defining Your Media Angle
A crucial step is to identify your unique media angle. In my work with clients, we focus on what makes them compelling. I adopt the perspective of reporters, podcasters, and interviewers to craft an angle that resonates with them and their audience.
For instance, my journey from being a high school and two-time college dropout to earning a PhD is a central theme in 95% of my interviews. This is what we refer to as "life experience." Other engaging angles might include live demonstrations, expertise in a specific subject, or notable achievements.

It's equally important to be a good guest after the interview. Share the content once it’s published, direct traffic to it, and ensure that the interviewer recognizes your efforts. This practice can significantly increase your chances of receiving repeat invitations for more interviews.
