Life As A Podcast Editor With Michael Jerry
There isn't a lot of real talk about what it's like to work as a podcast editor. In this video, Michael and I talk about some of our experiences as editors. We talk about:
• The journey of transitioning from audio editing to running a podcast editing business.
• Challenges faced in learning the technical and business aspects of podcast editing.
• Importance of user experience and client communication in business.
• The value of contracts and setting clear expectations with clients.
• Learning from difficult client experiences and setting boundaries.
• The emotional impact of client relationships and handling client departures.
• The importance of honesty and transparency in client relationships.
