It’s difficult to give an exact time frame because how long it takes for a podcast to make money depends on many factors. Some niches are easier to make money in than others. It also depends on the quality and reach of your podcast. It also depends on how you want to earn money. (Advertising, sponsorships, affiliate marketing, or Patreon.) In general, it can take several months to years for a podcast to make significant money.
You and good mood. The better prepared you are, the more comfortable it will be for you to be natural and relaxed in front of the camera. It’s completely normal to be nervous, so we’ll take you by the hand so that you have a great experience and are happy to come back.
Of course, just hit the keys, chat into the microphone and your first episode is ready!

A good podcast has various characteristics.
Here are a few points you can keep in mind.
- Are you covering a relevant and interesting topic for your target group?
- Is your content well researched and are your statements well-founded?
- Does your podcast offer your audience added value? (informative, entertaining or inspirational?)
- Does your podcast have a common theme?
- Is your speaking pace appropriate so that you are easy to understand but do not lose the attention of your listeners?
- Do you have noise, annoying noises or long pauses in your recordings?
Questions about service

We would be happy to support you in publishing your podcast on all common platforms.
The production time varies depending on the scope and complexity of your project. But don’t worry, we are busy bees and work efficiently to present you with your high-quality result as quickly as possible.
The recording usually runs once. But it’s completely normal for you to make promises from time to time, to muddle things up, or to want to word something differently. Don’t worry about it! We cut out slips of the tongue and unnecessary material for you, up to an hour’s worth of work. And if you ever need a short break, that’s no problem. With us you are queen or king, so that your performance is the very best.
It depends on your format, but here are a few guidelines:
- Solo episodes can last between 10-20 minutes.
- Co-host podcasts can also be between 10-30 minutes long.
- Most interviews are between 30-90 minutes long.
Note that short episodes are ideal for topics explained simply and concisely. Shorter episodes are also suitable for listeners: commuting or generally in everyday life.
Long episodes are well suited for topics that require a lot of detailed knowledge, as well as for in-depth analyzes and discussions. However, be careful not to make your audience lose interest.
