Wow your colleagues, clients and learners with professional podcasts that get results

Podcasting was such an amazing phenomenon that in the year it was created, the Oxford American dictionary declared podcast “word of the year”.

But many people still fail to understand the secrets behind terrific podcasts.  That’s probably because many people still see podcasts as a technical innovation.  It’s not.  Podcasting is a communication innovation.

And seeing podcasting as a technical innovation probably explains why so many podcasts are stuck at the bottom of podcast listings, where no-one scrolls down to listen.

Here at Talkshow, we approach podcasting from the content angle, not the technical angle. 

First, learn the psychology of audio

Sure, to be good at podcasting, you have to know which buttons to press and where to plug in your microphone.  But we believe the real secret to phenomenal podcasts lies in the psychology of audio. 

Success doesn’t come from pressing the right button.  It comes from a powerful, well crafted message that plays to the strengths of its medium. 

Just as the secret to writing a great story doesn’t come from knowing how to use Microsoft Word, podcasting is about content, not software or plugging microphones into your computer. 

Of course, understanding the psychology of audio isn’t all you need to produce phenomenal podcasts and make them work as part of your business strategy. 

Then, learn professional editorial and production techniques

You also need to learn professional production techniques that make podcast production less time consuming.

Some of those techniques are technical which involve learning how to use equipment  and exploit all the advantages modern technology offers. 

Others are editorial such as  writing audio scripts that are quick and easy to understand.  And to remember.  And you need to learn creative techniques that make your content stand out.

You’ll leave with all the skills to make podcasts

In Talkshow Media’s workshops and media labs, you’ll learn all this:  the psychology of audio, and professional production techniques to speed up your content. 

You’ll leave with all the skills you need to create basic podcasts that will impress your colleagues, peers and clients.
