What can we do for you?
|
Build your podcast to your organisation's goals and objectives
Experience in working with the strategic aims of financial service organisations and educational establishments means that we can discuss how best an audio podcast can support your messaging. |
|
Plan themes to align to your brand
This includes:
|
|
Draft interview questions and episode series structure
Clients often have a great idea for a podcast but can struggle with how best to serialise the message and content. We have vast experience in that field, and provide consultation on how best to approach this. |
|
Provide expert audio recording and post-production services
Recording, editing and mixing content is the area in which we are most in demand for. Listen to the Half Hour Mentor series for the best showcase of our work. We can support you in quality on-site or online recording using our state-of-the art mobile recording equipment. We also have a dedicated production suite to support mixing and editing of content, working with you to 'sign-off' the final product, including effective Show Notes. |
|
Working with your communications team to provide top quality artwork
This is often something that is done in-house by organisations due to corporate branding standards; however, we can advise on the appropriate requirements for podcast publishing and social media marketing. |
|
Support publication and promotion
This often depends on organisational requirements, but if you need guidance, support and implementation, we can help. |
Podcasts for Primary Schools
We are currently piloting an innovative new project in which we work with Year 6 primary school classes to allow them to produce their own podcasts. The content, subject matter and show ideas will be created by the class and teachers, with consultative guidance from our team.
The recording, direction, co-ordination and post-production - including launching onto all worldwide podcast platforms - will be managed by Karona Sound.
This initiative has been piloted with St Thomas The Martyr CE Primary School, Up Holland, Lancashire with superb results.
‘Well done again on such a beautiful job of the podcast. It has a depth and richness to it that can never be captured in videos and photos. A lovely keepsake for the class to take on!’
(Angela Lake, Y6 Parent)
The benefits for the children, teachers and school are:

Customer testimonials

Professor Hannah Holmes, Dean of Manchester Metropolitan University Business School (2023)
'The podcast series was extremely well-received by students who found the content to be insightful and inspiring. The comments received about the quality of the series cited the ease of listening and authenticity of the conversation and how this then supported their own professional and personal development, as it demystified some aspects of career journeys and challenges. Overall, after listening to the podcasts, students reported feeling more confident about achieving their own ambitions, which is fantastic! We were very impressed by the quality of the production and the professionalism of Ian throughout the sponsored project.' |
