Professional Podcast Production, From Idea to Publication
Your podcast could be a key part of your business marketing, a way to share your expertise, or simply an opportunity to talk about a subject you're passionate about.
Whatever your starting point, our podcast production services can take you from the initial idea through to a professionally produced podcast that's ready to be heard.
Imagine hearing your podcast on Spotify, Amazon, or Apple podcasts knowing it can be listened to from anywhere in the world.
How does podcast production work?
It starts with the idea
We'll help you refine your idea, think about who you're creating the podcast for and develop an approach that gives you plenty to talk about beyond episode one.
Already got everything planned? Great. We'll pick it up wherever you are.
Time To hit record
Whether we're recording face-to-face or remotely with guests anywhere in the UK, (or the world) we'll help make sure everything is set up properly and sounding as it should.
You concentrate on having a great conversation. We'll worry about the technical bits.
Turning the recording into a finished episode
Once the recording's in the bag, we get editing.
We'll clean up the audio, balance the levels and make the edits that help the conversation flow.
Giving you professional, radio-quality sound without taking away the personality that made the conversation good in the first place.
The aim isn't to make it sound over-produced. It's to make it sound like you, on a really good day.
Adding the finishing touches
Music, voiceovers and sound effects are a bit like the salt and pepper of a podcast, used well, they bring everything together and give your show its own identity.
We'll help choose and add the right elements for your podcast, from the intro and outro music to professional voiceovers and sound design, without drowning out the bit that actually matters: what you've got to say.
Getting your podcast out into the world
Once your episode is finished and you're happy with it, there's still the small matter of actually getting people to hear it.
We can take care of podcast hosting, publishing and distribution, getting your show onto the major listening platforms without you having to figure out RSS feeds, hosting platforms and all the technical faff that goes with it.
You make the podcast. We'll help get it where it needs to go.
Need help with just one part?
You don't have to hand over everything
Perhaps you've already launched your podcast and just need someone to take care of the editing. Maybe you're happy recording but don't want to deal with publishing. Or perhaps you've got an idea and simply want some advice on the best way to get started.
That's absolutely fine.
1386 Audio can support with as much, or as little of the podcast production process as you need.
Not sure what equipment you actually need?
Don't assume you need to spend thousands on microphones and studio equipment before you can start a podcast.
We love talking about great audio, so we're always happy to chat through the setup that will work for your budget, environment and ambitions – and you don't need to be a client to ask.
Sometimes, what you've already got is more than enough to get started.
