A plain-English breakdown of every feature, booking commitment, and discount inside Basecamp, Trailblazer, and Summit, so you know exactly what you're getting before the call.

Basecamp
Foundational Presence for leaders building their first wave of podcast authority.
Feature # 1
Basic Onboarding
A structured intake process that captures your story, expertise, target audience, and offer positioning. This becomes the source material every pitch and placement is built from. No scrambling and no guessing.
Feature # 2
Target Scout™ Precision Vetting
Our proprietary vetting system blends AI matching with manual review to confirm each podcast actually reaches your buyer, by topic, audience size, host alignment, and listener intent. We don't book "any" show.

Speaker Digital Press Kit
A professional designed media kit hosts love receiving: headshots, bio variations, topics or angles you can discuss with actionable takeaways, suggested intros, sample interview questions, links to your top past appearances, as seen on banners, and speaking testimonials. Treat it as your guest "press pack."
Feature # 6
Strategic Guesting Blueprint
Everything you need to shine as a podcast guest including a handy guesting checklist, podcast speaking best practices, technical setup guidelines, how to convert the audience into leads, and more.

Premium Onboarding System
An expanded intake that goes beyond the basics with narrative coaching, signature-story development, niche message mapping, and audience-specific hooks. Your positioning shows up sharper on every podcast you join.
Feature # 2
Social Media Content Promotion Package
We turn each recorded episode into a repurposable promotion package containing quote graphics, audiograms, and post copy so the appearance keeps working on your social channels long after the recording ends.
Feature # 3
Content Strategy Session
A dedicated working session focused on which themes, stories, and offers you should lead with on podcasts, and which to hold back. Aligns your appearances with your business priorities.

Guest Performance Evaluation
Structured feedback on how you're showing up as a guest, pacing, clarity, hook strength, and CTA delivery, so each appearance gets sharper than the last.
Feature # 5
Priority Episode Tracking
We monitor publish dates, track release across your booked shows, and alert you when episodes go live so you can promote, repurpose, and engage in the comments at the right moment.
Feature # 6
B2B Strategy Logic Mapping
For B2B leaders: a mapped logic of which podcast audiences correlate to your sales motion (deal size, persona, geography) so booking decisions are grounded in pipeline outcomes, not just downloads.
Feature # 7
4 Bookings / Month
Same booking volume as Basecamp. The upgrade isn't more shows, it's higher-quality positioning, distribution, and feedback around each one.
Tier 03
Summit: Executive Influence
Everything in Trailblazer, plus the elite-level audit, integration, and producer-relations layer reserved for executives who treat podcasting as a category-leadership channel.

The features below are the additions unique to Summit.
Feature # 1
PodScout IQ™ Post-Record Audit
After each interview, our PodScout IQ™ system analyzes the recording for filler words, pacing, tone confidence, narrative flow, and authority signals, then returns specific, coachable feedback. This helps you move from sounding like a salesperson to a trusted partner.
