FAQ

We’re all about giving your show a top-to-tail scrub, then a lather, and it’s out on the town to strut your stuff!

  

We unpack your audio with an ear for crisp pro sound that’ll make your listeners sigh in relief and ease into whatever’s to come.

 

With stories, well, we are masters! We can weave a story arc into anything.  When the audit is done, you’ll be weaving fiber into every part of your podcast. And there’s nothing like spinning a good yarn!

 

So finally, there’s the genius bit where we tug on your creativity using research for inspiration and show you how to turn a story  until your audience is rapt around your show and you’re at the top of your game.

 

It’s how it works. We’ve been there and seen it often — still, we’re always surprised– and it’s so much fun!

Sure, we’re a bit out there, but so is everyone ahead of the pack. That’s what out there means.

But we come with a sh-tload of degrees, a ton of time in the field, in related fields, in creative fields — and we’ve got peeps to work with where it’s needed.

And we know research. That’s what a Doctorate degree gets’ ya. Basic research. Applied research. Critical thinking. Analyses. Enuf said.

Look, we know one size doesn’t fit all.

If you’re just starting out or you’re well seasoned, you’re going to get an analysis and action plan that’ll knock your sox off — so don’t worry, whatever your background, tribe, and aims, we’ve got you, your podcast (and your toes) covered.

I’m not gonna josh ya. It will take work. And some time.

 

The good news is that you’re going to save time elsewhere, which means you’ll re-allocate your time and energy resources, which means you’ll be more efficient and effective.

 

Your starting point will shift. You’ll have a slam-dunk plan to keep you going. You’ll get savvy. Your skills will hone. Where you end up will be really different from where you are now.

 

So get used to the idea of getting where you want to be — better and quicker.

Cuz we’ve answered all your questions candidly. Cuz we’re really really good at what we do. Cuz we’re funny, creative, analytic and talented.

 

 

Mostly, because we’re humble.

 

 

Ok. Ok. Because we know podcasts and podcasters can do better. 

 

Because we know podfade (podcasting burnout) is a real thing. Getting you aligned again with your aims and values is our aim and an important part of the audit process. We re-energize.

 

 

And the industry has matured and it will take better skills, a pro-like sound, incredible storytelling, and balls –innovation balls — to stay among those who cut it.

 

 

We have what it takes to get you there. With our breadth and depth of know-how, we can get you there. We will get you there.

 

 

It’s time to step up or get left behind.

We want you to be fully satisfied. It’s how we sleep at night. When you’re happy, we’re happy. It’s that simple. Here’s how we reset the happiness meter:

  1. We need to talk. You’ll go over expectations, objectives and strategies with us, working collaboratively.
  2. We try again with a free reworking of the areas you specify. We do this with an agreed upon time frame of 2 weeks max.
  3. If the happiness meter won’t budge, we will give you money back for what’s not working. 
We value open and candid discussion to work through whatever needs to be done to budge that darn meter. It’s how we both succeed.
