  • We take the faff out of making a podcast for the busy social impact sector. We have oodles of experience working with social impact organisations from NGO's to universities, delivering our podcast production and training services. “MIC allowed Co-op to create an authentic podcast. It certainly wasn't something we could have done internally." Together let's change the world, one podcast episode at a time. DM us to have chat about your 2025 podcast plans.

  • Lots of podcasters tell us that they feel the pressure to constantly book guests for their show. What with juggling schedules, doing the research, prepping questions - it can be a lot! But not every episode needs a guest! Some episodes could just be you or your team sharing opinions, stories and experiences that link back to the theme of your podcast. If you're feeling the stress of finding and booking guests, take your foot off the guesty pedal for a bit! #podcasts #communications #podcasting #GrabTheMIC

  • "The first 30 seconds of your speech determine whether the audience will listen to the rest of it." Public speaking principles apply to podcasting too! Your intro should give listeners a clear idea of what your podcast is about and what they can expect. They've clicked 'play' for the value you promised, so deliver it promptly. Don't make them wait, or they'll likely turn off - maybe never come back! #podcastproduction #audiotraining #MICmedia ------------ We're a podcast production and training agency for the social impact sector. We can help you to plan, record and get your podcast live. DM us for more info and how we can help you to Grab The MIC and get podcasting!

  • Mass appeal isn’t the goal for your podcast. Plus mass appeal is super, super difficult. For us lot in the social impact sector it’s about connecting with the right people. Those who either a) care about what you do and will take action b) those who will really take some value from what you have to say. It’s so tempting to cast that net wide. But as the old saying goes, ‘if you speak to everyone you speak to no-one’. So which ears will truly love your content? Who aligns with the ultimate goal of your podcast? Make your podcast for them. By reaching the right ears, you can drive real impact. -------- #podcasting #impact #audience #marketing #value #grabthemic

  • If you've ever filled in a funding application, or bid for money, one of those questions you get asked again and again is, ‘How are you going to ensure the legacy of this project?’ A podcast can be a great way to achieve this. Podcasts offer you and your project unique opportunity to capture and share knowledge, stories, and experiences in an easily accessible format. Unlike written reports or events, podcasts can be accessed and listened to repeatedly, long after a project has ended. This creates a lasting archive of information that can continue to educate, inspire, and inform future projects and organisations - even beyond your postcode.  You could have a podcast that features interviews with project participants, featuring their challenges, successes, and personal growth. Or a podcast series that delves into the research and findings of your project, ensuring that those valuable insights are not lost.  By creating a podcast, you can make sure that the legacy of your project lives on, reaching a wider audience and making a lasting impact. And if that’s not a brilliant example of legacy I don’t know what is! ------------------------ Hi we're MIC, we're a podcast production and training agency for good eggs.
