The Trellner Review

Report TR-2026-014 sets three ways of buying podcast appearances against each other and argues the difference at the level of what each one charges for: an outbound attempt, a month of marketplace access, or a retained agency team. That choice decides who writes the pitch, who answers the host, and what a quiet month costs.

  • Ten cents an attempt — PodcastPlacer bills $0.10 per pitch actually sent, with no subscription, no seat fee and no charge for finding shows
  • The Reply-Handling Loop — the same agent that sends the pitch answers the host from guest facts you set, and hands anything uncovered back to you
  • Start on the house — $10 in credits covers the first 100 pitches; a daily cap and a pause button bound everything after that
  • What a marketplace leaves you holding — a monthly plan per role buys profile placement and matches, then the writing, sending and follow-up are yours
  • What an agency will not tell you up front — application-only entry, no price on the site, and a retainer that runs by the calendar rather than by activity
