High-profile podcasters are very hard to convince to switch to renting a studio because they probably already have a studio at home or are renting at someone else’s studio. You need to offer them something they don’t have and convince them that you are a better solution for them. Here’s how to attract high-profile podcasters to your podcast studio.
To provide a premium podcast studio experience you need to invest in top-of-the-line equipment, such as high-quality microphones, soundproofing, lighting, and multi-camera setups. You need to provide them with the set-up that they otherwise couldn’t afford. With that comes a service you will need to provide them during the filming of a podcast. Offer them, staff, that will be present on set to handle all of that gear and that will pay attention to details and adjust filming accordingly. This way you are making high-profile podcasters feel valued with personalized attention and seamless support.
The space is also one huge thing they will look for when choosing a podcast studio. Create a space that has a comfortable and stylish environment that reflects their status and appeals to their audience. Make sure it is easily changeable as they might want to give it a personal touch to make it more of their own. Those things could be prompts that are branded with their logo, maybe a screen behind them showcasing their trademark or some other furniture changes.
The service doesn’t stop after you are finished filming a podcast for them. Offer professional-grade editing and post-production services to save them time and effort. Create promotional materials they can use on social media to promote their episodes. That way you are showing that you understand their business and can anticipate their needs. You position yourself as someone making their job easier, less time-consuming, and ultimately cheaper.
Everything you have to offer, no matter how good or premium it is, will not be sold if your clients aren’t aware it exists. Showcase any standout amenities like teleprompters, green screens, or live-streaming capabilities. Offer add-ons such as catering, private meeting rooms, or valet parking for added convenience. Promote features that high-profile podcasters value, such as privacy, flexibility, and reliability. The best point is sales is to offer them these additional services at the check-out. Remind them at the exact point of buying that they can upgrade for an exceptional experience at just a small increase in price. Integrating platforms like Podyx allows you to have an intuitive platform where studios can list and manage all available add-ons, such as teleprompters, additional cameras, sliders, editing services, or social media content creation.
Admins can customize which add-ons appear for specific bookings or packages, tailoring offerings to meet client needs. Podyx integrates add-on suggestions directly into the booking flow, allowing clients to select extras like extended session time, additional equipment, or post-production services before checkout.
Automated prompts ensure clients are aware of these options, increasing the likelihood of upsells.
Work with previous clients to create testimonials and use it on your website and social media to showcase your services. If you have some high or middle-profile clients create success stories and show how you’ve helped them elevate their content. Create case studies that demonstrate how using your studio enhanced the quality or reach of a podcaster's content. In agreement with them, share photos and behind-the-scenes videos of influencers or well-known podcasters using your space on social media. Ask them to promote your studio on their social media to increase visibility.
When tiering packages make sure to offer exclusive tailored packages that cater specifically to high-profile podcasters, including bundle deals for multiple bookings or additional services. Offer exclusive incentives, such as a free trial session, discounted introductory rates, or personalized consultations.
Attend podcasting events, expos, and meet-ups to connect with high-profile podcasters directly. Join podcasting communities to connect with creators in the industry and offer them services. Build relationships with podcasting agencies or talent managers who can recommend your studio to their clients.
Run digital ads on platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn targeting podcasters and influencers. Try to use SEO to rank for keywords like "premium podcast studio rental" or "professional podcast studio for influencers” on your website and social media. Post tips on how to elevate your podcast or increase revenue to show that you are an expert in the industry and can offer them valuable advice as you know what challenges they are facing. Collaborate with niche content creators to promote your studio to their networks.
