Behind the scenes: Podcasts

Here is an inside look at the copy we typically use when someone asks us for me to be a guest speaker on their podcast.

This will help you structure your podcast and be prepared. Offering up my Personal Brand Manager will assist with topics and questions, and give an extensive background to the interviewer. Make sure to read up on your guest as much as possible before any interview.

We’re setting up everyone for success.

“You have an interview with Dennis Yu coming up very soon and we want to make sure that everyone is as prepared as possible.

First, if you could send us questions/topics that will be discussed to help prepare Dennis that would be very much appreciated.

Second, here is Dennis’ bio:

Third, Here is a copy of Dennis’ Personal Brand Manager, so you can get a sense of who Dennis has interviewed and the topics discussed. 

If you have any further questions regarding the podcast interview, please don’t hesitate to ask.

When you’re clear about the types of questions you’re going to ask, the cadence and length of the interview, and perhaps one or two questions that you’ll ask every guest, it helps you be more prepared and also gives your listeners an easier time because they’ll know what to expect.

And make sure to record your interview so you can rewatch and take notes of yourself. There is always room to improve.


Consider making some canned notes for your podcast and interviews in order to let your interviewees be as prepared as you are.

Set yourself and others up for success.

I'm a member of Blitzmetrics Academy and a friend of Dennis to boot. Not only is Dennis highly intelligent and full of great and creative ideas, he's also incredibly generous with both his knowledge and his time. Success couldn't come to a better guy. Thank you for all that you do for the world, Dennis! 🙏

Working with Dennis has been a delightful experience. After meeting him in 2015 I got to collaborate with him on countless occasions. His understanding for state-of-the-art marketing, his implementation, and his leadership put him into the top 0.01% of marketers and mentors.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Dennis for my podcast in 2021 and since then we have maintained a friendship that grows with each interaction. I have seen Dennis' devotion to his friends and clients firsthand, and our conversations often result in us talking about how we can provide more value to the people around us. He is someone whom I can ask questions on a technical level, and look to on a personal level. If you have any hesitancy about hiring him, get over yourself and do it!

Geez, where do I start recommending Dennis? First, he is an absolutely brilliant marketer who understands where marketing is today and where it's going tomorrow. He also has an incredible passion for the International Worker community. The lessons he has taught me from his almost 20 years of experience hiring International Workers have been immense. Most importantly though. Dennis Yu is someone who wants the absolute best for you and is willing to tell you the truth. Dennis sat with me at a point in my business where I was floundering but did not want to admit it. He asked some very straight forward questions to get me to admit my issues, highlighted the issues, and then helped me create a roadmap to success.
