Podcasting is impact
and impact starts with a story
Podcast: it all starts with a story. With a good story you arouse interest, with an interesting story you make contact, impact. People who recognize themselves in your story feel connected. With you as a person, as an artist or as a company or brand.
Since journalist Ben Hammersley introduced the term “podcasting” in 2004 and Adam Curry, now also known as “podfather”, embraced the medium and made the medium great, it has become extremely popular especially in the last ten years. Many companies and organizations have also discovered the power of Podcast.
Daily, weekly and monthly thousands of podcast creators reach their mostly subscribed followers with their stories, conversations, interviews and even documentaries. They even form communities, “friends of the show” and strengthen engagement with their audience.

studio:
with you or with us??
Whatever setting you want to record your podcast in, whether this is a 1 on 1 conversation, or a round table discussion with 5 people, in a podcast studio two things are important:
- The space and the equipment are suitable for optimal sound recording. Everyone who speaks in the podcast must be clearly intelligible and appear pleasant to listen to.
- Atmosphere sets the tone. The better the ambiance in the studio, the more comfortable guests feel to tell their story. The right atmosphere, whether that is an intimate setting or a cozy regular table, brings out the best in those present.
FlexPodcasting offers the best possible solution for every occasion. To discover what we can realize for you, please contact us, without obligation.
Each voice has its own track. Conversations via telephone connection, Zoom or Skype separately, audio fragments, design and music separated from the voice. This way we get the most out of every element in the recording. For example, we can also “save” the conversation if the quality of a Zoom connection is poor.
With decades of experience in broadcast and multimedia production, we know how to optimally translate the ‘feel’ as it was present during the conversation to the listener. The right tempo, the right balance between speech, music and noise.
How do you edit a conversation without hearing that it has been edited? Where is the balance between “raw” and “clean”? After all, you can make a faltering narrator speak completely fluently, but what does that do to his or her characteristic?
Audio editing is our profession. We make your podcast sound the way you intended.
AUDIO
design
Just like with Radio and TV, audio design also has added value for Podcasts. It brings recognisability and it sets the tone for the experience.
A catchy intro (“opener”), an atmospheric background music (“bed”), the announcement of a special section. These are all elements that – in addition to the personality of the moderator – characterize a podcast.
If you have a company or organization, this way you can also translate your company branding to your podcast.
Since Flex Media Factory has just about everything under one roof, we also provide jingle packages for podcast makers. Below the title of this chapter you will find some examples from previous work.
There are many platforms available for the publication of podcasts, the best known of which are: Apple Podcast, Spotify and Soundcloud. But there are several. Obviously, the more of these platforms your podcast can be found on, the more audience you will reach.
Once your Podcast is on such a platform, listeners can subscribe to it and you can share your podcast via your Social Media channels.
In addition, the FlexPodcast service offers other services to promote your Podcast, such as creating a promo spot, a trailer and of course the cover image that makes your podcast visible on the platforms.
