– TAMING THE FERRETS –

Podcasts

THE POD HUB’s portfolio originally began with one production, their very own ‘Taming the Ferrets’ featuring Tony Snow and Emil Verster.

 

In this BOP business series, which soon earned the tag New Zealand’s most awarded podcast, the THE POD HUB team previously known as THE POD HUB went behind the scenes to talk to some of the Bay of Plenty region’s most interesting personalities. Take a listen.

 

Since Taming the Ferrets the THE POD HUB studio has never looked back – their portfolio continues to grow by the week.

Taming the Ferrets

Taming the Ferrets shares and dissects the stories behind local founders, entrepreneurs, leaders, figureheads, operators and employees.

“WTF has exploded onto the scene and disrupted an entire industry. Every business should be talking to their customers and employees. Which means EVERY business needs to talk to WTF first”

Bay of Plenty Business News

 

“We felt a podcast would be a fresh way to engage the isite network, but we had little idea of what was involved. ThePodHub team helped shape our thinking, recorded multiple contributions from around the country and turned hours of content into a coherent, entertaining 8-episode series.  Feedback has been positive, and we are already talking about the next stage.  If you or your organisation wants to test the podcast waters, I recommend contacting ThePodHub team to get started.”


iSite New Zealand

David Craig, Commercial Manager

‘I had no idea how to start a podcast, and working with ThePodHub team, I realised I didn’t even have an understanding about the audience or purpose!   Going through the process was so enlightening and put me on the path to making succinct, direct content and being excited about the podcast! The planning and production has been so easy, they helped me with each step in a friendly relaxed way … and I am up on Spotify!”

Enjoy the success that comes with your ideal clients approaching YOU, because of your position of influence.

Increase employee engagement, reduce absence and attrition

HR directors describe podcasts as the ‘secret weapon’ to build employee engagement, connection and trust. This is especially powerful for remote workers and teams who are not office-based.

Promote your culture

Authenticity sells. Podcasts are a window into how your business operates and the people making the magic happen behind the scenes. This is the most powerful way to inform people who you are, what you stand for, and what they can expect.

- WHY US -

Having your own podcast sounds great.

But the reality can be painful.

When you’re forced to wrestle with complicated planning processes, expensive production equipment, confusing and time-consuming editing, dealing with hosting and platform uploads every single week … and that’s before you even start to worry about how to ensure anyone actually LISTENS to what you have to say.

 

That’s why so many businesses say, “Maybe we should record our own podcast”, then – after hitting obstacle after obstacle – give up and miss the opportunity to become the leading authorities in their industry.

 

But with podcasting the fasting-growing media channel in New Zealand, businesses owners risk missing out on the ‘Audio Gold Rush’ and being left standing on the sidelines in an increasingly competitive landscape.

 

Now, for the very first time, THE POD HUB allows businesses to own the narrative, grow their revenue, accelerate their impact, and build meaningful connections by creating extraordinary podcasts and experiences

 

THE POD HUB represents the disruptors, the innovators, the free-thinkers and those who want to be heard above the crowd.

We do things differently.

We take the pain out of podcasting by collaborating, challenging and confidently building our clients’ ability to establish their position as thought leaders, entertainers, thinkers and motivators.

 

The unique advantage of THE POD HUB lies with our ability to give businesses all the guidance, support, strategy and tactics they need to create a massive positive impact.

 

THE POD HUB provides local, on-site studio facilities that combine audio and visual equipment crafted in the German and Swiss workshops; Production expertise honed in internationally, and; Marketing strategies tried and tested in London, Sydney and Cape Town… all delivered with a unique Kiwi twist.

 

We work with our clients to take an idea and transform it into an award-winning, chart-topping, customer-winning, employee-engaging product.

 

This can also include video production for YouTube, photoshoots, Instagram and TikTok content creation.

All YOU need to do is show up and talk about what you do best.

 

THE POD HUB covers all the rest.
