Create & Launch is a one-day workshop that will show you everything you need to take your podcast from idea to launch.

Launching a podcast successfully is really hard stuff! We get it. First, you have to figure out what you’re going to say and how you’re going to say it. Then comes the technical stuff and questions about equipment and editing and software and.... It can be overwhelming.

This workshop cuts through the noise and shows you everything you need to know to CREATE, PRODUCE, and LAUNCH your podcast. You will learn how to:

  • • Pick the perfect topic for your podcast
  • • Create content people will glue their ears to
  • • Use production techniques to make your show sound professional


Please note: This is a hands-on workshop, and it's limited to 20 participants.

The day is split into two segments. In the morning, you’ll cover all the bases of creating and planning your podcast:

  • • Voice processing tips that make you sound like a professional
  • • How to edit your recording, and cut in with music and interviews
  • • Finalizing your podcast show and exporting into a final MP3 file

Create & Launch 2017 Instructors

This workshop is a PodSummit production. It has been designed and developed by Roger Kingcade and Ernest Barbaric, who have a combined broadcasting and podcasting experience of 35 years. Yes, we are old.
Roger Kingkade
Roger Kingkade is a veteran broadcaster and podcaster of 18 years. He has hosted shows in Vancouver and Calgary and launched his first (of many) podcasts in 2005.

Roger will share lessons learned over the better part of two decades in this very competitive environment. You will learn to prepare and organize your podcast workflow to set yourself up for success, why your audience is already anxiously awaiting your podcast, and the “golden triangle” of engaging with your audience.

Connect with him on Twitter or LinkedIn.
Ernest Barbaric
Ernest Barbaric is a seasoned podcaster with 6 shows under his belt, and downloads numbering into hundreds of thousands. His obsession with quality translated into countless hours of research, courses, and of course a lot of wasted money and time.

Drawing from those lessons, Ernest will teach you how to get incredible sound without breaking the bank, and how to make a podcast people will want to listen to.

Connect with him on Twitter or LinkedIn.

FAQ

Will there be coffee?

Yes. There will be plenty of coffee.


Is there parking?

There are plenty of spots at the front of the building, and you will be able to park there for the day. For free.

How about food? Will you feed us?

Negative on that one. Roger and I are strict pastafarians and didn’t want to impose our eating habits on you. There is a Taco Time across the street, McDonalds a block away, a sushi place downstairs. There is even a 7-11 if you really lost all respect for your body.
