Subject: Exclusive: Our research of [N] [subjects] reveals something surprising

Hi [Host Name],

We just completed a study of [N] [companies/people/cases] examining [topic]. The findings are things your listeners haven't seen before.

I'm [Name] at [Company/Organization]. We specialize in [niche area].

Three findings that would spark a great episode for your audience:

1. [Surprising stat #1 with context]
2. [Finding #2 that challenges assumptions]
3. [Actionable implication #3]

We're sharing this publicly for the first time — and [Podcast Name]'s audience of [audience description] would be the perfect first to hear it.

I'm happy to send the full report in advance so you can preview the data.

Would this be worth a conversation?

💡 Proven Subject Lines

Swap any of these into your pitch based on your story:

1 Exclusive data: We studied [N] [things] so you don't have to

2 Our research found [surprising stat] — first-time public share for your show

3 [N] data points on [hot topic] — your audience hasn't seen this yet

✅ Pro Tips

→

Offer to send the data in advance — it builds credibility and makes hosts feel special

→

"Exclusive" or "first time sharing" is magnetic language for hosts

→

Contextualize your numbers — raw stats without interpretation fall flat

→

If you don't have research, a curated analysis of public data works too
