Spotlight — Weekly Video Show

Podcast Monkey
The Spotlight Plan · Done-for-you weekly show

You record.
We run the rest.

Spotlight is the fully hands-off plan. You hit record and send us the file, and we edit it, cut the clips, design the thumbnail, write the notes, and publish it everywhere. The next thing you hear from us is one email saying your show is live.

What actually happens each week

Four steps. Exactly one of them is yours.

Step 01 · You
Record
Riverside, Zoom, your phone, however you already record. Drop the file in your dashboard. That's your whole job.
Step 02 · Us
We build the episode
Video and audio edit, the 30-second opening teaser, four short-form clips, the thumbnail, the title and show notes.
Step 03 · Us
You approve
It lands for a look. Want something changed? Tell your account manager and we re-cut it.
Step 04 · Us
We publish it
Scheduled and live across YouTube, Shorts, Spotify and Apple. One email: it's out.

The Monthly Show Report

Once a month, you get a straight read on how the show is actually doing, and what we're changing because of it.

Not a meeting you have to schedule. A written report from your account manager that tells you what happened, what it means, and what we're doing about it next month.

How every episode performed
Views, watch time, and subscribers across YouTube and the podcast feed, in plain English, not a dashboard screenshot.
What the clips are telling us
Which shorts travelled and which didn't, so the next month's clips are cut toward what your audience actually stops for.
Titles & thumbnails, read back
Which packaging earned the click. We adjust the approach going forward. You don't have to ask for it.
What we'd do next
A short list of recommendations. Topics that are pulling, formats worth trying, anything holding the show back.

Read it in five minutes and get on with your day. Want to talk any of it through? Reply to your account manager and we'll get on a call.

What makes it yours, not generic

The four things a cheap editor or an AI tool can't give you.

🎙️
Real editors who keep your voice
A human cuts your show, never an AI tool that flattens how you actually talk. Your personality stays in. That's the whole point.
✂️
The Clip Engine
Every episode becomes 4 short-form clips built to grow you. Captioned, on-brand, post-ready for Shorts, Reels, and TikTok. One of them is your opening teaser, cut vertical.
🎬
Built for YouTube
Click-worthy thumbnails, packaging, and a teaser that earns the first minute. That first minute decides everything.
🔑
You own everything
Your feed, your channel, every file and clip. Always yours, whatever happens next.

01
Reserve your spot
A short agreement and the first invoice. We onboard a limited number of new shows each month, so the slot is held on purchase.

You'll get a Podcast Monkey login with a quick onboarding form. Brand assets, show links, how you like things done. It goes straight to your team.
03
Kickoff call
Meet your account manager and the editors on your show. We take down your vision, your style, and anything you want handled differently.
04
Send the first recording
3–4 business days later it's finished, packaged, and scheduled, and you find out by email.
