DIY vs. Hiring a Podcast Agency

You’ve got that fire in your soul to start a podcast—HELL YES! But now you’re wondering, “Should I produce this myself or hire a team?” Let’s break it down.

DIY Podcasting: The Hustle & Grind

Look, producing your own podcast is SO  totally doable. All you need is your phone, some basic podcast equipment (or not), and the grit to figure it out. It’s a great option if you want to stay super hands-on and control every piece of the process. Plus, it can be budget-friendly if you’re podcasting on a budget.

There are [several platforms] that make uploading, editing, and distributing your podcast is easier than it’s ever been before. You can literally record from your living room, do some minimal editing with basic podcast editing software, and call it a f*cking day. 

If you love learning new tech, are comfortable with a little trial and error, and have the time—then you have EVERYTHING you need to start your podcast on your own.

But here’s the thing: DIY podcasting requires a serious f*cking amount of time. I’m not going to sugarcoat it. From recording to editing, promoting, and managing a podcast hosting platform, you’re juggling a lot. Sure, you’re saving money, but it can become a second full-time gig if you want to do it right.

Hiring a Podcast Agency: Someone else does the heavy lifting

You’re a f*cking boss running your business, maybe even a multi-passionate creative who’s doing all the things. I SEE YOU! Sometimes, you just don’t have the capacity to figure out every tech detail or become a podcasting expert overnight. 

That’s why your podcast is still on the shelf. This is an uncomfortable truth, but it doesn’t have to be where you live long-term! 

That’s where we come in….

Imagine having a high-quality team of geniuses who are invested in getting your voice out to the masses! You get to stay in fun creator mode, while our team of experts focuses on the details of producing, branding, and launching your podcast. We literally do the f*cking work for you (!!!!), while you stay in your genius and just hit record! Did you just take a big sigh of relief? I hope so!!

When you hire a team, you’re investing in yourself and your vision. And you’re worth it, Queen! 

So, Which Route Should You Take?

It depends on your goals and time. If you’re just starting out and want to test the waters, DIY the f*ck out of your podcast. If you know in your full body that you are meant to start a podcast, JUST START DOING IT!

If you want to build a podcast and following FAST, then hiring an agency can save you a ton of time and headaches.

No matter what path you choose, the bottom line is this: your voice needs to be heard

And whether you decide to hustle it out on your own or hire a team, you’ve got a message to share, and a soul family out there just waiting. 

You are UNSTOPPABLE and CAPABLE of way more than you think. YOU ARE F*CKING READY!
