"Do I really need to hire a podcast editor? Or can I get by with one of those AI podcast editing tools and call it a day?"

This is a question I get asked all the time by people who value their time, and there's no shortage of opinions on this topic. But if you’re a coach, consultant, or online business owner and your numero uno goal with your podcast is to drive more leads to your business, there are some pros and cons to consider.

That’s why I invited 2x bestselling author and award winning host Shawn Shewchuk to join me inside this episode. He’s helped more than 12,500 entrepreneurs learn to do more in less time — not by managing time, but by thinking about it differently.

We're breaking down why podcasters need to answer this question based on your current stage in business, size of your team, unique business goals, and goals for your podcast.

So, should you edit your own podcast? Hit play and let’s make your business bingeworthy.
