Your Branded Podcast Starts With These 3 Questions

Getting thoughtful answers to these three critical questions is the first step in our Podcast Jumpstart program. We created it to ensure that together, we make the right podcast for your audience, that it aligns with your purpose and achieves the outcomes you’ve defined as most important for your brand.

Answers to these questions will become the North Star to your podcast production and will guide the decisions that go into every episode for the life of your podcast. (no pressure!)

How the Jumpstart Works

Your brand has a unique story. Our expert story tellers at Larj will help get it into your customers earbuds and onto their playlist.

  • Red circular graphic with a navy blue arrow and the words "Concepting + Format" in white text

    Weeks 1 & 2

    There’s a lot of work to be done before we hit the record button! In this phase we’ll start with your key message, do a deep dive on audience and a competitive analysis and settle on the name and format of your show.

  • Flowchart with a large orange circle and dark blue arrows, labeled 'Production + Work Flow'

    Weeks 2 & 3

    Next we’ll develop a content plan, and the workflow and timeline to produce your first 10 episodes. At the end of week three you’ll have a roadmap for a sustainable production.

  • Logo for "Sound Brand + Episode 1" with a yellow circular background and a dark blue arrow curling around the top right of the circle.

    Weeks 3-5

    It’s time to hit record! Now that your roadmap is in place we’ll get into the studio (or capture sound in the field) and record. We’ll also provide coaching behind the mic for hosts and guests, and create the feel of your show with music - intro/outros and transition styles.

  • Teal circular graphic with the text 'Audience + Growth Plan' in white.

    Weeks 5-6

    In the final phase we’ll set you up with a strong publishing infrastructure, marketing strategy, metrics and launch plan. That’s all there is to it!

Bad podcasting is easy (I tried to go it alone before I met Larj), and great podcasting is hard. Highly recommend.

The Larj team got us up and running. We have a season under our belt and are plunging ahead.  It was a great way to leverage their expertise to build those skills internally.

Larj provided the production and creative spark that made our podcast really sing- music, format, it all works thanks to their experience, creativity and wisdom!

The team is incredibly knowledgeable and capable and there’s someone to oversee each aspect: producer, editor, creative, sound engineer, etc. Soup to nuts, they took care of everything!
