Anatomy of a Great Intro

• Hook (first 15 seconds): Grab attention. Start with a question, surprising stat, or bold statement. NOT your show name.
• Show Intro (15-30 seconds): Your name, show title, what listeners will learn.
• Guest Intro (if applicable): Guest name, credibility (title/company), and specific topic.
• Episode Tease (remaining time): Specific things discussed (but don't give away the punchline).

Anatomy of a Great Outro

• Summary (15 seconds): Recap the main takeaway or next steps.
• Guest Thanks (if applicable): Where to find them (website, social media, company link).
• Call-to-Action (30 seconds): Subscribe, leave a review, join newsletter, visit website.
• Sign-Off (5 seconds): Consistent catchphrase or thank you.

Delivery Tips

Read scripts naturally, pause at commas, breathe at periods, vary inflection. Don't rush. Record your intro/outro separately in a quiet space and add them to your mix in post-production for maximum quality.
