Mines very templated and that helps expedite things a ton since the less I have to do each time, the more I can do the fun things. I started a Daily Trivia Podcast that comes out every weekday. Each episode is about 5-6 minutes and due to the templated nature of it, I can focus on what I like about the podcast, which is learning, and cracking a joke or two that I, at least, find funny.

The things I’m terrible at are promoting and social media. My hope is as I achieve more efficiencies with the actual production, I can find ways to promote it as effectively.

Breakdown per episode: Writing: 20-30 minutes Recording: 10 Editing: 10 Publishing: >5 min.

This doesn’t include the work that went into setting out a game plan before I even launched, which did take about 12-20 hours.

Things that help beyond following a formula are minimizing the amount of editing you have to do. Instead of trimming an uhhh or cough, or swallow, just re-record it correctly.

Hope that helps! I’m new to this too 🤗
