It's time we tackle a topic that can be a bit daunting – getting ready to work with a new podcast production partner. Whether you've been DIYing your podcast or working with another team, there are some crucial things you need to have in place to make the transition smooth and successful.

Here's the thing: we've onboarded clients this year who fell into two camps. Some were convinced they needed way more than they actually did, which delayed them from getting the support they needed. Others worked with production partners who were less than willing to hand over what rightfully belonged to them. Sound familiar?

In this episode of The More Profitable Podcast, I'm breaking down the four essential items you need to have ready before you start with a new production partner. Trust me, having these sorted out will save you a ton of headaches and help you hit the ground running. We're talking podcast host credentials, website access, music files, and all the creative assets that should belong to YOU.
