All-inclusive pricing
There is never a mystery to cost when we produce your podcast. We charge by the per-minute finished running time of an episode, period. Here are our three price packages:
$22.00 per finished minute of an episode $39.00 per finished minute of an episode $51.00 per finished minute of an episode Irrespective of the chosen price tier the result will be the same professional-sounding audio program. Which package is for you? In short, you pick the price tier based on how many of your elements are already good-to-go. Some clients have |  |
in-office segments written and recorded before they ever contact us. Others require that we assemble their podcasts from scratch. Here's the skinny on our three price packages:
BASIC - $22.00 per finished minute
Send us all of your written and recorded elements and we’ll assemble the podcast for you. You’ll get a professionally-voiced intro and wrap up (over music) to open and close the episode plus any segue or transitioning audio your project requires. For the body of the program you may choose to have us voice it or we can draw from audio you send in (or a mixture of the two). Prior to recording our proofreader will check your text for any grammatical errors. In post-production we’ll clean up all client-provided audio and add equalization/audio enhancing where needed. The result is a professionally-crafted podcast ready for the Internet. The BASIC plan is our most popular because of its cost effectiveness. If your project merely needs our know-how gluing it all together BASIC is a potential money saver for your organization. It's podcasting power without the powerful price.
BASIC PLUS - $39.00 per finished minute
This is the BASIC plan but with an added writing component. We will write the entire podcast using information supplied by you. Our staff writers are quite podcast-centric and promise to make Shakespeare want to subscribe to your RSS feed. Take our completed script and narrate it at your end or have us professionally voice it for you. If your work-in-progress is 'suitable' yet needs a jolt to make it sizzle, BASIC PLUS transforms flat into full and clutter into clarity. Applications include e-Learning, audio success stories, and the wide range of more 'structured' podcasts.
PODCAST COMPLETE - $51.00 per finished minute
This is our turnkey podcast package. If you are starting from nothing and just want to drop the project off on our doorstep with a love note reading, “Just make us a podcast, ok?”, no problem. We'll work up a treatment for your podcast and submit it for your approval. From there we move into what we call "research and creative" mode prior to actually writing the copy. TPR will arrange and conduct any and all phone interviews your project requires. Your office is in full control of content from start to finish. We require several extra days to construct a turnkey podcast but we promise to make it worth your while.
