How many times as editors do you hear from a client, “I just want to record”? As podcast editors we have the unique job to take something that is rough around the edges and make people sound better and elevate their brands. But let’s face it, creating a business as an editor has its high and lows and many lessons to learn. 

Like most things in life other people have gone before you and you just need the right friend to help point you in the right direction.
