Invoice clients for podcast production, episode editing, and show management. Get paid on time with Tidybill.
A podcast producer invoice documents fees for producing, editing, and managing audio content for podcasts. Podcast producers may handle the full production pipeline — from guest booking and script preparation through recording, audio editing, show notes writing, and episode distribution — or may focus on specific phases such as editing and audio mastering only. Clients are typically businesses running branded podcasts, individual hosts who want professional production, or media companies with multiple shows. Pricing models range from per-episode flat rates to monthly retainers covering a set number of episodes. The recurring nature of podcast production makes it well-suited to retainer arrangements, which provide the producer with predictable income and the client with consistent quality.
| Service | Typical Rate | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Podcast Episode Editing (per episode) | £80 - £250 | per episode |
| Monthly Production Retainer (4 eps/month) | £300 - £800 | per month |
| Show Notes Writing | £30 - £80 | per episode |
| Podcast Launch Package | £500 - £1,500 | per project |
| Podcast Trailer Production | £150 - £400 | per trailer |
| Audiogram / Video Clip for Social Media | £30 - £80 | per clip |
For retainer arrangements, invoice at the start of each month for the upcoming month's episodes. For per-episode pricing, invoice after each batch of episodes is delivered (e.g. weekly or bi-weekly for shows with high output). Podcast production is a recurring service that works well with Tidybill's automated recurring invoices. Net 7 to Net 14 is appropriate given the ongoing nature of the work. Set up a recurring invoice schedule to match the podcast's publication cadence.
