Work with me
We make 
our podcast – or we make it with you
Either we produce a podcast that belongs to your company and runs in your channel. Or we make episodes together that appear on digital kompakt – in front of an audience that has been listening to us for years.
Two routes
The question is: who owns the 
hannel?
With a commissioned production it belongs to you. We build and run it, but it goes out under your name, in your feed – and it reaches the people you want to reach yourself: customers, applicants, your own staff.
With a co-production it belongs to us. In return you get something you could not build yourself in two years: an audience that is already there and already listening. You buy the one because you lack the craft. The other because you lack the reach.
Podcasting as a Service
Your podcast. Our craft.
We develop, produce and publish a podcast that belongs to your company: strategy, format, editorial, recording, editing, cover, feed. The whole chain if you want it, or only the parts you are missing.

Co-production
Our podcast. Your voice in it.
We develop a series together that appears regularly on digital kompakt. You are there as a co-host or you back it as a sponsor – in front of an audience that is already listening.

- Co-productionyour topic is only interesting for your product
And if you do not know: we sort that out in a first call. Usually three questions are enough to see which of the two routes it is.
Route 1
Podcasting as a 
ervice
We build and run the podcast that belongs to your company. You decide how much you do yourself – we take care of the rest.
Strategy & goal
What the podcast is there for, what it should achieve and how you measure whether it does.
Format & concept
The recurring frame: mechanics, length, rhythm, roles, name.
Editorial & guests
Topic planning, research, guest selection, briefings.
Recording & direction
Remote or on site, with our setup.
Editing & mastering
A sound that stays the same across every episode.
Cover & show notes
Cover art, descriptions, chapter marks.
Publishing
Hosting, feeds, platforms, reporting.
No ad slot with us
With a commissioned production nothing runs through the channels of digital kompakt. If you want our reach, route 2 is the one – or podcast advertising.
With or without Joël
Joël can host, and in some productions he does. In most he does not, and for good reason: a company podcast works better when the voices come from inside the company. So we teach the hosting instead of replacing it. If you want Joël to host, say so in the first call – that is a building block of its own, not the standard.

Route 2
o-production on digital kompakt
Here you do not get a format of your own, you get a place in ours. We only do this with a few partners – and only when the episodes would be good for our listeners even without your logo.
Co-hosting
Someone from your company sits at the table regularly and helps lead the conversation. The strongest form: your people become visible as experts.
A series of your own
A recurring topic across several episodes, edited by us, carried in substance by you.
Sponsorship
You back a series, are named as the sponsor and are present around it – without sitting at the microphone yourself.
Partners in our co-productions
And what is the difference from podcast advertising?
Advertising is a spot in an episode that would exist without you – booked by impressions, 40 to 60 seconds long. A co-production is the episode itself. You are not buying a place in the programme, you are part of it.
If for now you only want attention, podcast advertising is the faster and cheaper route. A co-production is worth it when your topic is interesting to our listeners anyway.
Why us
We have already made the 
istakes
We have been making podcasts for over ten years. In that time we have seen just about everything there is in podcasting – and made just about every mistake once ourselves.
The format that nobody cared about after eight episodes. The recording where only one track was running. The approval loop that cost three weeks because nobody had spoken to the legal department beforehand.
We do not say this out of modesty, but because it is the actual value: you do not have to make these mistakes again. Anyone who has seen a company podcast fail plans the next one differently.

Enquiry
Let us talk about your podcast
Write briefly what you have in mind: your own podcast or an appearance with us, who should host, from when and how often. We will come back with a suggestion for which of the two routes is the right one for you.
The third route
Or you do it yourself
Not every company needs a production. Sometimes the people who could host are already there, and all that is missing is the craft around it: which format? How often? Which microphone? Who sorts out the approvals?
That is exactly what Joël built firmenpodcast.de for – a course that makes you ready to launch in a few weeks. The same ten years of experience, just passed on in the other direction: you do it, we show you how.
Coming soon firmenpodcast.de goes live shortly.
