Content

Most podcasts don't make it past episode seven. Not because the host ran out of things to say, but because nobody planned the show concept, production workflow, or growth strategy before hitting record. We make sure your show is built to last.

Sound Familiar?

Your Podcast Idea Is Stuck In Planning Or Stalled At Episode Five.

  • You've been "planning to launch a podcast" for six months but the logistics feel overwhelming.
  • Your show launched with energy but lost momentum after a few episodes because there was no sustainable production process.
  • Episodes publish inconsistently because editing, show notes, and distribution take too long for one person to manage.
  • Your podcast exists but downloads are flat because nobody built a growth strategy around distribution and promotion.

That's exactly what a structured podcast program fixes.

The Sidekick Approach

How We Help

Video Coming Soon

Podcasting services cover everything from show concept to ongoing production: naming, format design, production workflow, editing, distribution setup, show notes, and growth strategy. Whether you're launching a new show or leveling up an existing one, we build the systems that make consistent publishing sustainable.

Sidekick's approach starts with the show concept. Who is this for? What do they get from listening? How does this fit into your content strategy? We answer those questions before touching a microphone. Then we build the production workflow, handle the editing, set up distribution, and create a growth plan.

George has been podcasting since he created the first HubSpot-specific podcast. He knows what makes shows last and what kills them before they gain momentum. Your show gets built on experience, not guesswork.

Show Concept Strategy

We define your show's audience, format, and positioning before you record a single episode.

Sustainable Production Workflow

Recording, editing, publishing, and promotion are systematized so your team can maintain consistency.

Is This Right For You?

Is Podcasting Right For You?

This Is For You If...

  • You want to launch a podcast but don't know where to start.
  • Your podcast published a few episodes and then stalled.
  • You're podcasting but downloads are flat and you don't have a growth strategy.
  • Your team doesn't have time for editing, show notes, and distribution.
  • You want podcasting to be part of a larger content strategy, not a standalone experiment.

This Isn't For You If...

  • You want to record but don't have a clear audience or purpose yet. We'll help define that during discovery, but commitment is key.
  • You're looking for a quick, DIY podcast setup guide. We provide full-service support, not tutorials.
  • You want to outsource the host role entirely. Your show needs your voice; we handle everything else.
