From recording (with video too, if you'd like!), to editing, mastering, and publishing across major platforms, we make the process effortless, polished, and true to you.

Optional: Branded Assets

Allow yourself to shine!

Want your content to stand out visually? We can create branded thumbnails, reels, and social-ready clips to help you share your work and grow your audience.

Do I need experience to start a podcast or audiobook?

Not at all! We’re here to guide you through the process. From recording and setup to editing and publishing, so you can focus on your voice and message.

Can you record both audio and video version of my podcast?

Yes. We can capture clean audio and crisp video simultaneously, perfect for sharing on YouTube and social media.

Where do you publish the finished podcast episodes?

We publish our podcasts through a service called Podbean, which distributes your podcast out to all the major podcast platforms such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Audible, etc. It is part of your podcast package, when you hire us to produce your podcast.

How long does editing take?

It depends on episode or chapter length, but most projects are delivered within a week or two after recording. For our podcasts, we often like to work four episodes in advance, so we've always got your episodes ready to go on your publishing day of choice.

Can you help with music or intro/outro branding?

Yes, we know people who can create musical intros and outros. Then, we mix those branded intros/outros to give your podcast or audiobook a polished, professional sound.
