RAVE REVIEWS
“When Bart asked me to read his new book, HOW TO PREPARE, PITCH & BECOME A TV GUEST, I had no idea what I was in store for. I’d been working in the TV industry for big named companies for going on 20 years. As I read every page, I said to myself, ‘Bart, how do you know all this?’ Seriously, he said everything I’d tell a potential client, but with more detail and tips that even I would never think of or even suggest. For example, having a TV guest conduct a website + sales/selling system + merchant account audit to be sure they were prepared to handle any potential bandwidth limitations or a spike in sales activity from a single TV exposure so their website or merchant account company didn’t shut down their account for false flag activity! WHO would know to tell them that? My friends in the business wouldn’t. As I kept reading, Bart covered what most TV industry professionals might know, but with one big difference, they don’t know the first thing about how to write a book, let alone write one as FAST as Bart wrote this book … in ONE WEEK! So, all I can say is, ‘Congratulations, Bart! Great job, and thank you, for writing what we all want to tell potential TV guests, but you did it so succinctly inside this book.’ What a primer for anyone wanting to be on TV and how to best prepare for a successful TV guest appearance. If you plan on being a TV guest or you’ve been one already, keep this book by your side and review it often. There are tons of great ideas in it for you to help improve your TV guest performance, hands down!”

“ Having been on TV before as a TV guest, had my own guest appearance on reality shows, and given tons of interviews over the years, as an author, I still learned a lot from Bart’s book, HOW TO PREPARE, PITCH & BECOME A TV GUEST. He confirmed what I know works and doesn’t work and he opened my eyes to areas that I never would have thought before. I know Bart and his work and training in many areas of business and marketing is beyond anyone I know. Anyone who reads this book is definitely in store for some serious TV guest appearance training.”

“ I’ve known Bart for more than 20 years. I remember when he came up with the idea for TVGuest.com back in 2004 . While he kept that marketing card in his back pocket, I watched him help and train so many people over the years with their books, websites, marketing and so much more. Bart cares and gives his all no matter who they are. Now that Bart has finished writing his books, I can see why now is the time to bring TVGuest.com and TVRadioGuest.com to life and to help everyone get heard, seen and become a guest on TV to help accomplish their goals. I know he’ll pour every ounce of energy he can into helping his clients and TVGuest.com members achieve success. Having been on TV talk/news shows before, I can tell you Bart’s book on how to become a TV guest is spot on and should be required reading for anyone wanting to become a TV guest on any TV show!”

It’s very interesting how I decided to write this book. Normally, you have chapters or sections, but in this case, I thought it best to list about 25+ of the most frequently asked questions you might have, forgot to ask, don’t know to ask that relate to your becoming a TV guest on a TV show.
I cover how to prepare to be a TV guest, what TV shows look for in the perfect TV guest, ways to maximize your time on TV as a TV guest and so much more.
In my own way, experience, thoughts and marketing wisdom, here are those questions and how I have answered them. Read through them all. When you do, I known you’ll absolutely be that much more prepared and informed on specifically how to market yourself as a TV guest and attract TV shows to invite you to tell your story, share your expertise and more. Isn’t that what it’s all about?
So, check it out and I hope this book helps you just as much as it’s helped me – become a TV guest on TV shows!
