Proven Show Results

Trusted by Independent Show Hosts & Top 1% Podcasters

Real feedback from show creators and hosts who reclaimed their creative voice and release consistency with SageDoer.

"I was spending 14 hours every single weekend editing raw WAV files in Descript and writing show notes. Our SageDoer VA took over our entire post-production pipeline: cutting dead air, drafting SEO show notes, and slicing 4 viral reels per episode. Our show downloads grew by 42% in 90 days."

Brian Carmichael
Host, The Modern B2B SaaS Podcast (Austin, TX)

"Guest coordination used to be an administrative nightmare. Chasing headshots, bios, and signed media release forms took days. Our assistant manages our PodMatch pipeline and prepares 1-page pre-interview dossiers. My guests constantly remark on how professional our show runs."

Tanya Castiglione
Creator & Host, Creative Minds Audio (Los Angeles, CA)

"Having a free dedicated Project Manager who reviews audio LUFS levels and double-checks Buzzsprout chapter markers before publishing is incredible. She caught an unsynced sponsor promo code before release. It feels like having an agency executive director at zero extra charge."

Marcus Ledbetter
Founder & Host, Velocity Podcasting (Denver, CO)

"We were paying over $28/hour locally for an audio coordinator who constantly missed episode drop deadlines on Spotify. At $6/hour on full-time, our SageDoer specialist coordinates 3 weekly podcasts, manages YouTube video uploads, and saved our studio $38,000 this year."

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions from Podcasters & Creators

Everything you need to know about raw audio editing, guest scheduling, multi-directory RSS compliance, and dedicated project manager supervision.

Yes, with seasoned editing fluency. Our podcast virtual assistants are experienced in text-based and multitrack editing tools like Descript, Audacity, and Adobe Audition. They clean up dead air, cut out false starts, remove repetitive filler words ("um", "ah", "like"), insert your intro/outro theme music, normalize audio levels to industry standards (-16 LUFS for stereo, -19 LUFS for mono), and prepare master MP3 and MP4 files for distribution.
Your assistant manages the entire guest journey end-to-end: they scout prospects on PodMatch or LinkedIn, send personalized pitch invitations, coordinate calendar booking via Calendly or SavvyCal, send automated Riverside/SquadCast prep kits with recording guidelines, collect high-res headshots and bios, and assemble a 1-page host briefing sheet with key discussion topics before the interview starts.
Yes. A single corrupted feed tag can pull an entire show offline. Your assistant uploads master audio files into your host (Buzzsprout, Libsyn, Transistor, Megaphone), formats SEO-rich show notes with clean markdown, enters clickable chapter timestamps, adds proper ID3 metadata tags, verifies explicit content flags, and confirms scheduled release dates across Apple Podcasts Connect and Spotify for Podcasters.
Podcasters spend their working hours recording, strategizing, and negotiating sponsorship deals. You don't have time to micromanage every audio export. Your dedicated Project Manager (provided at $0 extra charge) acts as your operations producer: they conduct audio quality checks, audit sponsor read placement and affiliate links, monitor publication deadlines, and deliver consolidated weekly production digests.
Zero hidden fees. We operate on flat, transparent hourly rates ($7/hr Part-Time or $6/hr Full-Time) with no onboarding costs, no agency membership charges, and no long-term contracts. You can easily ramp up support before launching a new season or scale back during holiday hiatuses. You pay strictly for productive hours worked.
