What It's Like Interviewing The Biggest Influencers for Forbes with Tom Ward

IMG_8512.jpeg

I got the opportunity to sit down with Tom Ward for my podcast Becoming an Influencer. Tom is mostly known for his Forbes articles recapping his interviews with the biggest influencers in the world.

He has his own podcast and YouTube series, The Tom Ward Show. I have kept up with Tom ever since I found his interview with Tana Mongeau about Tanacon.

Tom is a role model for me, as he is the only person I know of that sits down with internet celebrities! He gets the inside scoop of their business and personal lives.

In my podcast episode, Tom and I talk about how he got started, how he ended up writing for Forbes, sobriety, and his advice to smaller content creators.

We talk about his most recent interview with Addison Rae that went viral! Plus, his previous interviews with people like Bella Thorne, Erika Costell, David Dobrik, and so many more.

Some of my favorite key takeaways from this interview with Tom are:

  • Get started NOW

  • Be consistent

  • If people are not hating you, you are doing something wrong

  • Be polarizing

  • Make good content and people will find you

  • How he gets his guests on the show

I could go on, however, to find out more of what we talked about and Tom’s industry experience, stream the podcast now!

Thank you all so much for your support.

Best,
