Nationwide — Dr. Catrise Austin, award-winning podcast host, CEO of Celebrity Branding, LLC, and nationally recognized branding, PR, and media visibility strategist, will take the stage at Podfest Multimedia Expo 2026 to share proven strategies that help podcasters turn content into visibility, authority, and revenue.
Dr. Austin will present “7 PR Strategies That Work for Podcasters” on Thursday, January 15, from 9:00–9:30 AM, offering podcasters and entrepreneurs a practical framework for earning media attention, building credibility, and monetizing their message beyond downloads.
A recipient of the 2025 Best Podcast Host Award at the Dental Socials Awards, held during The Dental Festival in Delray Beach, Florida, Dr. Austin brings more than 25 years of national media experience to the Podfest stage. She is the host of the Let’s Talk Smiles podcast and the founder of Celebrity Branding, LLC, where she helps podcasters, authors, speakers, executives, and healthcare leaders become the most visible and in-demand voices in their industries.
“Most podcasters focus on producing more episodes, hoping visibility will eventually come,” said Dr. Austin. “The truth is, visibility is built intentionally. PR, positioning, and credibility signals—like awards and media features—are what create momentum, demand, and opportunity. In this session, I’m showing podcasters exactly how to make that shift.”
Unlike traditional PR or AI education that focuses solely on tools and workflows, Dr. Austin’s work sits at the intersection of AI, marketing, publicity, media, and leadership positioning. Her proprietary framework, The Fame Formula™, integrates five core pillars: Position, Publish, Promote, Publicity, and Profit. Now enhanced with AI systems and AI voice cloning, the framework allows leaders to scale influence and authority without scaling their time.
At Podfest, Dr. Austin will break down how podcasters can:
• Build authority without chasing downloads
• Use PR and awards strategically to stand out
• Attract media, speaking opportunities, and partnerships
• Convert visibility into revenue and long-term brand equity
Podfest Multimedia Expo is one of the largest podcasting conferences in the world, known for its tight-knit creator community and hands-on education for podcasters, content creators, and entrepreneurs.
