Ash and Kane talk about how to work successfully with a team in podcasting. They discuss the importance of processes, and systems and how to prevent things from going wrong when working with other people on your podcast. They also talk about the pros and cons between in-house staff, agencies and freelancers.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Processes are important if you have multiple people working on your podcast.
- Working with the same systems can help prevent problems, such as everyone using google drive. Agree this at the beginning of any working agreement.
- Try and prevent issues by being prepared, for example, having content ready ahead of time so there is time to proof it and things aren’t rushed.
- How you communicate is also key, whatsapp can be useful to speed up communication.
- A final sign-off by one person with authority is the best way to avoid too much creative debate as well as catch any errors.
- Using an agency means less management by you. Multiple freelancers working on your podcast can become difficult.
BEST MOMENTS
"Stop using just ‘drive’ as a word”
“It doesn’t matter who you are working with, there will always be mistakes and things that go wrong”
