As an avid listener of podcasts, I’ve always wondered how content creators were able to produce several high quality, professionally edited episodes each month.

With more than 700,000 podcasts online, the potential market of people looking for help in this industry is massive!

That said, this is a new niche skill I’ve recently learned about and want to share everything I currently know about it with you.

If you’ve been looking for a new service to offer in your virtual assistant business, or you’re just looking for a fun side gig, keep on reading! 

Want to become a podcast virtual assistant? Keep on reading to find out what a podcast VA is, what services they offer, and what they usually charge.

What is a podcast virtual assistant?

A podcast VA is the guy or gal behind the operations of a podcast. The person who handles the pre and post production tasks of a podcast, while working remotely.

What services can you offer?

A podcast virtual assistant can wear many different hats depending on what they decide to offer in their service menu.

Essentially, you could be responsible for the prep work of the podcast by doing things like tech setup or guest outreach. Or you could work on post production tasks like editing an episode’s audio file or creating detailed show notes.

Here are other popular services a podcast VA can get paid to help clients with:

  • Episode distribution
  • Podcast project management
  • Content repurposing
  • Marketing and promotion
  • Consulting

If you’d like more details on what kinds of tasks you would be completing for each of these services, definitely grab your free copy of this workbook!

How much can you charge?

Depending on what services you decide to offer, you can earn anywhere from $30 to $100 per hour.

For simple tasks that are easier to track, you may find yourself charging anywhere from $30 to $50 per hour. While for more complex tasks, it may make more sense to package them and charge a larger one time fee.

It’s all up to how you want to structure your business. Pricing podcast services is something that is discussed in more detail in the Podcast Assist course. 

Where can you learn these skills?

Gina, Hailey and Melanie have teamed up to create a step by step training on how to become a successful podcast VA. 

Enrollment for their new course, Podcast Assist is set to open again early 2020. Jump on the course waitlist here to be notified when enrollment opens!

Their mission with this course is to help students go from no podcast experience to a full fledged podcast virtual assistant!

They’ll take you by the hand with in-depth tutorials and templates so that you can have the highest chance of success with your new business.

The content generally takes about a month for students to complete. However, the course is self paced and available 24/7 so you can go through the content at whatever pace works for you.

When purchasing the course, you’ll also have the option of joining a private community specifically for podcast VAs. If you decide to join, you’ll get access to tech help, client leads, and personalized help when you need it for the fair price of $49 per month.

The additional support and help with client acquisition are a godsend for anyone new to this field. So if you do decide to invest in the course, I think it’s definitely worth considering joining the private community as well.
