This 2 hour bootcamp is a one-stop-work-shop on Podcasting.

You’ll find out why you need to be using this medium, and learn everything you need to do to get started.

Not only that, we’ll show you how to design your show so that it has the best chance possible for success.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a complete plan for your first season, and you’ll have the skills to record, present and edit it. You’ll be working with every bit of the equipment and the software needed, and walk away as a confident podcasters.

Here's the detail on what we’ll cover:

• Why is Podcasting Effective for Business? This is all about WHY you NEED to be Podcasting right now.
• Your Podcast Strategy – Finding your PAPA We'll go through the 4 Pillars of podcast strategy – Purpose, Audience, Promotion and Approach. At then end you'll have a design for your own show.
• The Non-Techie Guide to Podcasting Equipment This includes a run-through of all the kit needed to create a podcast, from the most simple setup to more advanced methods. Don't worry, this is much easier than you think!
• Audio Editing for Dummies A very simple, light introduction to editing, and when you need to use it. Hint: you can get away with very, very little!
• Podcast Publishing Made Simple We'll show you how to get your podcast out into the world, from Podcasting Hosting platforms to the best directories.
• Launch Promotion Strategy We’ll discuss a range of ways to promote your show, before and after launch, so you're ready to start attracting listeners.

We aim to have everything in place so that you have everything to launch your show.

But, for the best possible launch, it can be a good idea to prime your audience. So, it may be that you'll simply have everything in place, and a plan to follow once you leave.

Let's be clear – here's what you're going to leave with:

1. A podcast strategy – what you're creating, and why you're doing it
2. Equipment skills – experience in using audio recording equipment
3. Editing skills – the knowledge to edit your own show
4. A Launch Strategy – a starter plan to market the show, and find your first listeners

You can launch right away, or you can send the first announcement to your network. OR, you can leave with a plan to gather further recordings, and launch at a later day. We love people who plan to launch on the day, but it's up to you.

Many people leave the session with their first few episodes in the can, ready to release, so it's entirely possible.

Here's what you need to bring:

• Any equipment of your own that you'd like to learn more about
• A laptop on which you can install editing software (if you can't bring a laptop, let us know)
• Enthusiasm!
