It all starts with a plan...
I began by selecting platforms for both podcast (anchor.fm) and webinars (crowdcast). Then I sat down and mapped the editorial calendar. From there it was time to reach out to talent. Luckily with Harbor’s name recognition, recruiting was easy.
#2
Scripts & Rehearsals
For each recording or live event we did, there was a process behind it. First, I would outline a script and get the team’s input. After iterating the script, I would share it with the guest(s) and we would have at least one rehearsal.
#3
Audio Assets
I oversaw the creation of an introduction to the podcast and an outro. I also initially contracted to have help editing the audio. Eventually I learned how to do this and did it myself.
#4
Recording
A seamless recording takes a thourough rehearsal and a bit of coaching for the guests, as well as tech troubleshooting on the fly!
#5
Live Virtual Events
For live virtual events, building audience was critical. This required planning and creating ad, social and newsletter campaigns for each event well in advance.
#6
Disseminating The Final Product
We announced the release of podcasts and webinars through newsletter and social campaigns.
