How do you know a medium has reached critical saturation?
Once again that answer is found in the crowd.
What is the crowd doing, what are they reading, and what advice are they ALL following?
I don't think a week goes by when I don't receive an email solicitation to be on some podcast.
It seems everyone today has a podcast promoting some cause or another.
I mean EVERYONE. Well, everyone but me.
And because these podcasts are everywhere, they need guests.
So someone wrote some book somewhere and included some boilerplate PITCH template-- the one I receive practically every week, sometimes every day.
I’d be thrilled to have you on my podcast show XXXXX recently ranked top XXX iTunes and is exceeding XXX downloads per month in addition to my blog which has over XXXX views from over XXX countries.
I'd be happy to share some of that traffic with you to help expand your audience and brand to thousands of new ears.

I understand that you have a busy schedule, and that’s why i've developed an efficient, 45 minute audio interview over Skype. If interested, let’s arrange an appropriate time together.

And this tired template which I've read dozens of times-- is a shortcut.
</ End Rant.
