Podcasts are popular with both users and content creators. The possibilities are almost endless. With manageable effort and minimal equipment, you can reach a broad audience, particularly young listeners. Whether in the realm of news, advice, entertainment, or as a PR format: for your podcast to be a hit, it must stand out from the crowd and find its specific niche amid all the variety.

In our training, you’ll learn how to produce high-quality podcasts, which formats are suitable for which content, and how to strike the right balance between professionalism and a touch of authenticity. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll be able to test the impact of different approaches.

 

After the two-day training, participants will be able to

  • assess key success criteria for podcasts,
  • identify specific target audiences and market gaps,
  • use the necessary equipment with confidence,
  • apply the basics of writing and speaking for audio formats,
  • conduct professional interviews,
  • realistically estimate the technical and time requirements,
  • develop a concept and strategy for the right podcast.

 

We tailor the training to your personal preferences and needs and accommodate your preferred schedule. Please feel free to email us or give us a call:
