Professional Podcast Production Services
Pro Podcast Solutions offers the most robust selection of services that you will find, delivered by a team of audio-production experts. If you’re looking for audio editing and production for your weekly podcast, our podcast production packages are perfect for you. We offer six tiers of podcast production: Starter, Starter Plus, Starter Advanced, Pro, Pro Plus, and Pro Advanced. In addition to our podcast-production packages, we offer many of our services a la carte. This means that you can add any a la carte service to an existing package to create a custom package (see pricing below), or you can purchase a la carte services as stand-alone items.
Additional Services
Audiogram
Audiograms are short videos that combine a snippet of audio from your podcast with a graphic stylized with your branding. Unlike plain audio, these videos are sharable across all social media platforms and help create engagement.
Image Pack
Our episode image pack includes 3 images for social media sharing, formatted to fit the social media networks of your choice. We also include a featured image for the episode page on your website, that includes your colors and branding.
Intros & Outros
Our Intro & Outro service combines the voice of one of our professional voice artists with royalty free music. If you need assistance writing the script, we can assist with that too. Once the project is complete, you own the full rights to the completed Intro & Outro.
$400/up to 80 words. Additional words $0.75

Editing Service Descriptions
OUR PRO PODCAST EDITING INCLUDES:
- Editing out “ums,” stammering, long or awkward silence, heavy breaths, smacking, background noise, “you know,” and other crutch phrases. We go through every second of audio and pull out as many of these phrases as possible. In some instances an um is blended in with another word so much that it’s not possible to remove it. In other instances it is best to keep a stutter in so that there is context. That is, to remove it would cause a sentence fragment or a sentence to seemingly come from nowhere. Our goal is to create a polished, smooth flowing conversation and listeners will not be able to tell that any edits have been made.
- Audio-production enhancements, including vocal balancing, vocal compression, noise reduction, hiss/hum removal, and equalization.
- Mixing in any intros, outros, commercials, or music bumpers.
- Mixing down to -16 LUFS audio standard.
