"Do I really need to hire a podcast editor? Or can I get by with one of those AI podcast editing tools and call it a day?"
This is a question I get asked all the time by people who value their time, and there's no shortage of opinions on this topic. But if you’re a coach, consultant, or online business owner and your numero uno goal with your podcast is to drive more leads to your business, there are some pros and cons to consider.
