Podfuel does all the annoying work that you the creator shouldn’t worry about.
Your Podcast Assistant
Upon onboarding with Podfuel, you’ll be assigned a direct / single point of contact with our staff. That person will oversee the entire production process for you, from editing, visuals, branding, release schedule, etc. You will have a regular weekly call to check in, and we use Slack for faster daily communication.
Launch Your Show
Podfuel gets your new show off the ground and into the ears & eyes of your niche audience. We’ll consider the exact type of content you’re making and present you with platform options that best suit your needs. We’ll also make sure you look and sound great, providing you with advice on best recording practices.
Audio Edits
We get obsessed with making sure the conversation is clean and audible. Our editors use industry standard tools on every file we export. We’ll pre-process all files you send, making them cleaner and louder than what you recorded. Then once its dropped into the episode, it gets exported using more audio processing and metering to ensure we’re at the correct level for whatever platform you’re using.
Video Edits
Getting your style right is super important for brand recognition. We want to use your colors & fonts in every video, to make your impression memorable. We’ll advise you on how to shoot a great video including angles, lighting, file types, resolution, etc. Once we get all your files into an episode edit, we put a few final tweaks onto your already excellent-looking video, ensuring its centered with balanced color and lighting.
Content Edits
Podfuel’s editors have worked on TV, radio, podcasts, recording studio productions, so we will help you make your content smooth and concise. If you prefer that raw, um, uh, unfiltered, uh, organic [pause] feel to your podcast, we won’t fight you on that. But if you like a crisply edited episode that puts as much meat on the bone as possible, we really know how to get that done.
Shorts & Reels
While working on your full length episodes, the editor takes note on the very best moments that will be reused in your social media posts. Use these as teasers, announcements, and reminders to promote your full episodes. All of these moments get logged, so at the end of the season we can quickly make your “best of” content into a playlist, or a longer compilation episode.
Syndication
This might be the single most annoying step of the process. It seems easy, but if you screw this up your podcast will not find its way to your audience. Let our team handle the releases for you – we’ll upload & schedule each episode to the audio / video RSS feeds, and ensure every platform you use is covered. We can even pre-schedule your social teasers via Buffer.
Per-episode Elements
We know how to tailor titles, description, show notes, etc for each platform. Your text won’t be some AI-generated garbage, but words written by real humans who speak English. We also have Photoshop experts who can make you a great thumbnail. Of course, these will all be customized and branded to capture your unique look and feel.
