How the guest process works
Please listen to a few episodes before reaching out. Every podcast and audience is unique, and we want to make sure the conversation is a good fit for everyone.
Start with an email
Introduce yourself, your proposed topic, and why it would be useful to ABA business owners and leaders. Email podcast@3piesquared.com.
Confirm alignment
If the topic aligns with our audience, we will send you the podcast release form and podcast guest information form.
Schedule together
After the forms are complete, our team will work with you to choose a recording date and prepare for the conversation.
Prepare for your recording
We record with Riverside. Review the requirements before your scheduled session so your audio and video are clear and your recording uploads successfully.
Riverside technical checklist
- Join from a computer using the latest version of Chrome, Edge, or Safari. Do not use private or incognito mode.
- Use a stable internet connection with more than 10 Mbps download and 5 Mbps upload. A wired Ethernet connection is preferred when available.
- Have at least 5 GB of available browser storage.
- Use headphones and an external microphone or a quality headset microphone to reduce echo and background noise.
- Choose a quiet space with a professional background and place your strongest light in front of you.
- Close unnecessary applications and browser tabs, especially anything using your microphone or camera. Disable VPNs or blocking extensions if they interfere.
- After recording, leave the Riverside tab open until you see the upload-complete confirmation.
What to expect during the podcast
- Guest introduction: approximately 2–5 minutes.
- Conversation: We schedule up to 2 hours for each recording. Some conversations finish sooner, while others naturally continue depending on the topic and how the discussion develops. We let the guest and the conversation help guide the length rather than rushing a strong discussion.
- Implementation guide: Before we wrap up, we will ask you to help us outline a free implementation guide based on the episode. Think about the checklist, worksheet, template, action plan, or key takeaways that would help an ABA business owner put your advice into practice. Our team will use your recommendations to create a polished resource for our listeners.
- Guest call to action: You will have time to share your website, social media, resources, or anything else you would like our audience to know about.
Presentations, visuals, and references
- Most episodes are conversational, and we rarely require guests to prepare a presentation.
- If you have slides, a research paper, a worksheet, or another resource that would help explain your topic, we are happy to include it during the recording.
- If possible, please provide us with a copy that we can share with our viewers. A shortened or simplified version is completely fine if the full version cannot be distributed.
- If you use our presentation template, please keep its colors and theme consistent.
- If you will demonstrate a website, platform, application, or other visual, let us know in advance.
- Please provide citations or references for research discussed during the episode so we can give appropriate credit in the podcast notes.
- If a topic needs more time, we may divide it into multiple episodes.
