Podcasts are one of the most effective marketing tools for personal brands, solo entrepreneurs, and small businesses — but only when they're done right. I make sure yours not only sounds professional, but also gets found: through clean technical setup, clear workflows, and SEO-optimised content.

With my own podcast project Fielou I built all the technical workflows. That gives me a solid understanding of what really matters when producing a podcast.
