What people have been saying
“Between the incredible service, fast turnaround time, and consistently high-quality deliverable, it’s obvious why I – and every single podcast host I know – use TPC.”
“I shudder to think of the amount of time it would take to do this without TPC.”
“This is an uncompensated volunteer role. This is in my sixth year of doing it. If it had become a nuisance, I would have given it up a long time ago. TPC is a big reason why I keep doing this.”
“In the often unseen world of podcast production, TPC's work shines brightly, setting a gold standard in the industry. It's an honor to collaborate with such a talented team.”
“We have been very satisfied with the quality and level of service we get from TPC. They always go the extra mile to make sure that the product we get meets the expectations of our guests.”
“The Podcast Consultant has been a great partner since we launched our podcast in 2021. They helped us get started on the right foot, and have been with us as we expanded our production from publishing audio-only to now video too. TPC’s team and process help us make running our podcast a smooth experience.”
“TPC has been an invaluable partner for our podcast production. We've been able to trust TPC's expertise as our podcast has expanded into new show formats, and their team understands the unique style and tone of our content.”
“There are compliance hurdles in our industry that you have to be very aware of. Missing — not removing a sentence that we asked to be removed from an episode — it's not just that it could sound funny, but it could actually cause an issue with regulators. Making sure that our partner pays as close attention to details as we would in those situations is super important.”
“We can count on them being there for us. There have been a couple of times where we have had to do last-minute episodes and they have always delivered our product on time and sounding professional.”
“TPC is an 11/10. So responsive to email, insanely helpful, and very patient with my many questions and mistakes starting out.”
“The team at The Podcast Consultant have been a critical part of our podcast team. They are informative, efficient and responsive, which enables us to focus our time on production and other important aspects of creating a podcast. The team at TPC are experts in their craft.”
“Working with TPC has been amazing and really helped us elevate our podcast to sound completely professional, though none of us do this as a day job!”
“The Team at TPC is incredible! They've been with us since day 1 of our podcast, making our podcast and video production a breeze. They go above and beyond to meet tight deadlines and they're highly responsive. I would emphatically recommend them to anyone looking to level up their podcast production.”
“There's value in longevity. You should think about it like a long-term partnership because there's compounding that will happen.”
“TPC is a real pro in the space. They are highly responsive, detail-oriented, quick and consistently deliver high-quality work and counsel.”
“Our experience with TPC has been exceptional. The team consistently exceeds expectations, providing invaluable assistance with production needs, including live podcasting equipment and setup. We couldn't be happier with their support.”
“TPC's newsletter has become a very important curated, consolidated list of podcast updates — a trusted source of industry intelligence.”
“Extremely responsive and adaptive to the needs of the podcast. When I needed advice (general and specific) the team was extremely helpful.”
“TPC has a clear understanding of the industry and technical aspects of producing shows. They consistently bring high-quality ideas and execution to each episode and are an integral part of our team. I trust whenever I have a question or thought about the podcast, they know the answer better than anyone else.”
“Working with The Podcast Consultant team is a dream. Their editors go above and beyond to bring our show to life.”
“TPC has been a great partner to On The Brink dating back to when we launched in 2019. The team is responsive, accurate and thorough. We highly recommend TPC!”
“TPC continues to improve and enhance the services and also the ease of working with. I'm amazed with how TPC uses AI to handle episodes where I'm using the Zoom file instead of my microphone because of some sort of issue.”
“TPC is always able to turn around our recordings quickly, helping us address any issues with background noise or uploads and making our podcast sound like the real deal. We've even been able to produce special episodes that we turn around really quickly, where there is a time critical message to get out.”
“When I (recently) started to explore moving the show from audio-only to audio and video, they made the conversion as seamless as possible and have been a source of both technical and 'common sense' support.”
“The team at The Podcast Consultant have been extremely helpful. I am multiple years into podcasting. We are 5 episodes away from 100 and they had their ears on every single one. In addition to high quality and quick audio editing, the TPC team goes above and beyond to teach me about extra things like microphones, recording devices, and software. A couple years ago, we hired a separate marketing firm to help with our podcast. One of our first conditions was that they had to work with The Podcast Consultant and we wouldn't sign up if that meant we would lose them!”
“The Podcast Consultant was essential to helping me launch my show and continues to play a key role in the show’s growth. I can’t imagine working with anyone else.”
“TPC never fails to produce a clear final version that makes both my guest and me sound far better than we really are. Nothing is too much trouble, the staff are always charming, helpful, highly competent, quick to resolve issues and a delight to deal with. They really listen to how I want my podcast to come across and adapt accordingly. I cannot recommend them highly enough and anyone who uses them is lucky indeed.”
“Very patient with my requests for edits. Very accommodative in making changes even after an episode is published, when I made some mistakes.”
“I have been working with The podcast consultant since 2016 and they have been instrumental in helping me build a successful podcast. Their editing is always professional and extremely timely. The team goes above and beyond, and if I ever have a question they are always quick to reply with a helpful answer. I always recommend them when asked for a podcast editor/producer.”
“The time savings is indescribable.”
“What I like most is what is being lost in America these days — good client service. It's something we pride ourselves on at 55 North to have that Ritz Carlton anticipatory service, and I think you guys exhibit that as much or more than any vendor I've ever dealt with.”
