How to find or become a Podcast Editor
Are you looking for a Podcast Editor? What if your next Podcast Editor had a podcast instead of just being a random name on a discount services site? What if you could hear examples of that Podcast Editor before you reach out, and before you sign a contract or hand over your hard earned money? But I am "just" a hobby podcaster, I don't have a big budget like the bigger shows do - I am a one person operation!! Maybe you want to work with a Podcaster Editor that could teach you from the very basics to the more indepth - go from zero to hero with tips, tricks and tools and do it yourself!
