Episode 59 - How Podcast Editors Get Paid - Key Considerations When Setting Rates
Proper pricing ensures sustainability for podcast editors while providing clarity and value to clients. Whether charging per episode, hourly, or via monthly retainers, aligning pricing models with client needs and editor capabilities is key to building a successful business.
Monthly Retainers
- Overview: Clients pay a recurring monthly fee for ongoing editing services.
- Benefits:
- Predictable revenue and workload for editors.
- Stronger client relationships due to consistent collaboration.
- Higher customer retention and increased opportunities for upselling services
How to Invoice Clients
- Payment Timing Options
- Upfront payment: Ensures commitment and avoids chasing payments later
- Post-production invoicing: Preferred by some editors who value being paid for completed work
Key Considerations When Setting Rates
- Calculate expenses: Factor in software subscriptions, equipment costs, and personal/business expenses
- Research market rates: Understand pricing trends based on experience level (e.g., $50–$200/hour for experienced editors)
- Define value: Highlight expertise, certifications, and portfolio samples to justify premium rates
