If there's one thing I could shout from the rooftops about hiring an editor, it might be, "Don't hire just any old editor to get a seat filled. Make sure it's one you actually WANT to work with." In fact, that's what this whole show is about.

What if there was one question you could ask that would give you confidence, help you understand whether they are a flake or a solid performer, and whether their style matches yours? Whether you even want to work with that editor.

Listen to discover that question and how you can leverage it to make a great decision when looking for a professional podcast editor.

Find a great podcast editor (for you) doesn't start with where you're looking. It starts with knowing what you want and need. That's why we started with that. But where you look is INCREDIBLY important.

If you've been following the process we've talked about in the previous episodes, you already know what you want and need, what you can pay and what you'd prefer your budget to be, and even whether you want to work with an individual, a team, or an agency. Knowing that puts you WAY ahead of the game when you start looking. But where should you look?

Listen to discover 4 general places - or categories of places - you can look.
