HOST PREPARATION 

WHAT WE DO TO PREPARE FOR YOUR PODCAST?

 

• Zoom will be our platform to record, it will be just like a conversation

• If you have a vendor/customer/friend/family who would like to add a commercial to your podcast, please let us know and we will reach out.  Our sponsorship levels are here https://womentalkconstruction.com/sponsorship we can record the promotional ad with 60-75 words submitted to our team or the sponsor can record it and send us the audio.

• Your podcast will be approximately 20 minutes long

• Only the audio will be used for your podcast

• We can remove your words/statements, just pause, say remove that, then start again with your sentence

• Your podcast will be sent to you a few days before it is published - We do not schedule a podcast until we have your guest information filled out

• We will raise our hand ½ way through the podcast for a short pause (3 seconds) this just means finish your thought and take a breath

• We will raise our hand with 5 minutes left so that we can wrap up the podcast and make sure our audience knows how to reach you if that’s something you would like to share.
