The Level Up: Podcast Appraisal & Coaching

Find out exactly what’s holding your podcast back – and what to fix first. This is a complete professional appraisal of your show from people who’ve spent thirty years in national broadcast radio and television.

It’s not a failing – it’s what happens when you’re too close to your own work. You stop noticing the wording in your intro that makes listeners switch off; the interview questions that close guests down instead of opening them up, the audio issues that fatigues a listener before they’ve reached the halfway point. You stop questioning whether the title is doing its job, whether the show notes are pulling anyone in, whether the episode is actually the length it needs to be.

We notice. It’s what thirty years in national broadcast radio and television trained us to do.

The Podcast Level Up is a complete, honest review of your podcast – every dimension of it. We listen carefully, we assess what’s working and what isn’t, and we tell you exactly what needs to change and why. Not a checklist, not automated. A genuine professional appraisal from people who present daily shows on the UK’s biggest commercial radio brand and have worked in studios alongside some of the biggest names in UK broadcasting. We also have a lot of experience designing and producing successful podcasts.

What we review

Our Podcast Level Up covers every dimension of your podcast:

Content and editorial – Editorial structure and pacing, intro and outro effectiveness, episode length, call to actions.

Host performance – Delivery and presentation, interview technique, energy and pacing, listener connection.

Technical and production – Audio quality and sound design, guest audio management, mixing and mastering.

Distribution and visibility – Episode titles and show notes, platform and distribution basics, release consistency, promotional clips and social content.

How it works

Send us three recent episodes and a short brief about what you’re trying to achieve with the show. We do the rest. Within seven working days you receive a written report – direct, specific and prioritised so you know what to tackle first.

Level Up Report + Coaching — £950

The full written report plus two one-to-one sessions with a member of our team.

The first session walks through the findings and works on delivery and presentation techniques in real time – because some of what we find around host performance is easier to understand when you can hear it demonstrated and practise it with someone in the room.

The second session, a few weeks later, reviews a new episode to assess your progress and lock in what’s changed. It’s also a chance to ask questions and work through anything specific to your show.
