Keys to Helping Podcast Clients Look and Sound GREAT!
SEP 13, 2024
Keys to Helping Podcast Clients Look and Sound GREAT!

Are your podcast clients getting bad audio and video from themselves or their guests? We share tips on how to address the issue, whether you're there to help them or not.

Episode Notes: https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/episode/keys-to-helping-podcast-clients-look-and-sound-great


We're sharing some of the keys to helping your podcast clients sound and look great. It might feel uncomfortable initially, but it offers great benefits for your clients, their audience, and you.

We'll explore how to help them create a good recording space for success, whether it's an audio studio or a video set. Then we'll talk about the thing we ALL love to obsess over - the GEAR!

Of course, it doesn't stop there, because having a great studio with great gear won't get the results your clients are looking for if they don't use it right. Or if they let their guests set the standard for what should be considered "good."

Editors can assist by encouraging clients to speak up if guests aren't performing well or by stepping in for the host during live recordings.

We're diving deep into the business side of podcast editing—the gritty, no-nonsense reality behind the glamorous facade. Carrie Caulfield is sharing advice on how to attract the perfect, slightly nerdy but passionate client who wants to learn about podcasting. She's no fairy godmother; think more hard work, less magic formula.

We remember what it was like starting between 2015-2017, share a few technical challenges we're psyched to have tackled, and chat about the struggles of staying on top of our games. Oh, and we can’t forget Daniel’s absence—he’s busy, but we miss him tons.

Stick around as we share some laughter, business insights, and heartfelt moments, all while being exceptionally thankful for you tuned-in masterminds. Ready to boost your podcasting prowess? Let’s get into it!
