About My Friends In The North
PR and Management consultant Sarah Waddington wanted to start a podcast to both showcase the vibrant business community in the North East of England and also provide a platform for her clients.
Sarah was confident in sourcing guests, writing and conducting interviews and recording material, but wanted support and guidance in production and distribution.
We assisted with sourcing music and voice overs and produce and mix the podcast each month. We also set up hosting, an RSS feed and pushed out to all major platforms.
