Do Podcast Editors Need a Portfolio to Wow Prospective Clients?

Hey there, fellow audio wizards! Get ready to have your mind filled with golden nuggets of podcast editing wisdom in this latest chat we stitched together for you. Jennifer and Bryan have been in the trenches, debating if the magic of our editing hands needs a showcase or if word-of-mouth does the trick. Spoiler alert: we don't exactly hear ear-to-ear on this (see what we did there?). While Bryan is all for flaunting your audio flair, Jennifer’s got a point — some clients care more about the whisper of a solid testimonial than a flashy edited collage. We’ll dive deep into the world of demo reels, those pesky legal bits to think about before using your work as samples, and that headache-inducing task of updating your website. We might even shed light on why you should swap that "Hire me!" page for Jesse McCune's suggestion for something different. So buckle up, pour a fresh cup of joe, and let's chop it up, editor to editor. And as always, we've got some laughs in store because, let's be honest, life's too short for dull conversations. Let's hit play on this treasure trove of insights! SHOW NOTES PAGE: https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/episode/pem089-portfolios LISTEN TO DISCOVER __ __ LINKS AND RESOURCES __ __ And while we waxed poetic about demos, portfolios, platforms, and the cheeky antique key conundrum (got any ideas on that?), we didn't dive into a long list of tools this time. We focused more on the "how" and "why" behind showcasing your mad editing skills. If you're hyperventilating because you expected some software name-dropping, don't fret! A previous brain-picking might have just what you need – check out our episodes archive https://podcasteditorsmastermind.com/ or our Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcasteditorsmastermind/ for those nitty-gritty details. Keep those ears sharp and your sense of humor sharper, and remember to only share the work you have rights to. Legal oopsies are no joke!

How to Talk About What You Do as a Podcast Editor - Workshop Edition

Freedom is great. And it can be overwhelming. When you're talking with prospective clients, you have incredible freedom in how you describe what you do. But with that freedom also comes the challenge to make sure you cover things in a way that will connect with your ideal client and give them confidence. And, if we may be so bold, quickly filter out the working relationships that might not be the best. Let's be clear - we don't have it all figured out. But we're committed to working on this together. Listen to hear us workshop our elevator pitches and service descriptions. And maybe even some input from the PEM community.

How to Talk About What You Do as a Podcast Editor

One of the great things about podcasting is that there aren't really any "rules." Sure, there are principles that often apply. But no rules. However, there's a downside to that in that sometimes the words we use mean something different to prospective clients or employers than what the mean to us. Like the word, "podcast editor." What does that really mean? Listen to learn more about the different kinds of editing. Along the way, you might find out something about a new way you want to grow as an editor. And you'll likely gain some insight into how to describe what you do so that you can create differentiation and clarity in the minds of your customers and potential customers.

What if a Prospect is Talking with Other Editors?

Has this ever happened to you? You're on a sales call and everything is going very well, and then you discover that your prospective client is interviewing multiple editors. If this hasn't happened to you yet, it very likely will at some point. And if you've never considered it as a possibility, it could come as a shock. When that happens, you could find yourself thinking things like, "Should I just end the call now?" Or, "Should I share lower rates than usual so that I'm seen as more competitive?" We aren't here to tell you how you should feel or what you should do, but if we take the time to think this through together, you can come up with a strategy and position that will give you confidence.

How to Get the Support Your Editing Business Needs

If you're struggling with whether you need a bookkeeper, accountant, or lawyer - or how to decide who to work with - this is for you! As an independent podcast editor, whether you're running an agency, working with a small team, or a freelancer, a few things will need outside support. Normally, we might think of needing administrative support (like a virtual assistant), and that's often true. But there are some other service providers you might want to consider. Professional service providers like bookkeepers, attorneys, accountants, financial planners, and more. Of course, that can be easy to say and a little of a difficult pill to swallow when determining who you want to work with. Not only do you need to make sure you're finding someone who's competent, but also someone you're comfortable working with... and can afford. In this episode Stephanie Spires of Spires Strategies (Jennifer's business coach) about what we should look for, where we can look, and what we should consider before deciding to work with (or to NOT work with) someone.

Closing the Sale as a Podcast Editor

If you're an excellent podcast editor who delights your clients, it might seem like new clients should be beating down your door because of all the amazing referrals. Often, that doesn't happen....

Even if you're the very best at what you do, your customers are happy, your sales machine is working overtime, and you have consistent sales calls, you will not be able to grow your business if you don't do this one thing. Close. The. Sale. Listen as we talk about closing the sale - what it is, why it's important, what we do well, and where we struggle.
