108: Producing a Podcast with Kelly St. Clair

Producing a Podcast

Kelly St. Clair of St. Clair Productions

Producing a podcast is not a time consuming process surrounded by a  technology minefield. Not when you know a podcast producer like Kelly St Clair.

Having spent years honing skills in customer relations and client management in corporate America, Kelly realized her penchant for organization and direction could be paired with her love of internet radio. A longtime friend asked her to partner as a radio producer of her very successful radio program and a new business was born. Kelly has booked very high profile guests for her clients including Arun Ghandi, Lisa Williams, Dr. Lissa Rankin, Chris Hogan of the Dave Ramsey company, and many Hay House authors, to name a few. She has since launched her own production company, St.Clair Productions, and continues to make show hosts’ lives easier with her show production and promotion so all the host needs to do is show up!

Full disclosure, Kelly is the producer of ACT LOCAL Marketing for Small Business and The Boomer’s Ultimate Guide Podcast.
