Join us for a half-day workshop and 1 hour 1-2-1 with podcast executive producer Christopher Phin
19 April, 9.30am-1.30pm GMT, with 1 hour 1-2-1 follow up at a time convenient to you
About the course
You shouldn’t have a podcast “because everyone has a podcast”, but there are countless reasons you should add one to your publishing mix: they turn fans into friends, find new audiences, and deepen the duration and quality of the engagement with an existing audience – and all for an investment in time and kit that’s dwarfed by the money so many sank into the ill-fated pivot to video.
Plus, whisper it, they can actually make money.
In this half-day course, you’ll get an overview in how to plan, record, edit and distribute your podcast to an eager public, and you’ll also get a 1-2-1, hour-long follow-up with the trainer to review your own podcast launch or development plans.
You’ll see how achievable a podcast is, and skip ahead in your podcasting journey, avoiding the common rookie mistakes.
