The process
Five parts, from raw recording to a reviewed batch
This is the same workflow taught throughout the masterclass, laid out here in full detail so you know exactly what each stage involves.
Source intake and permissions
Before any editing starts, you confirm what the source material actually is, what rights apply to it, and organize it so it is ready to work with. This step protects both you and the client.
- Confirm the recording or article is client-owned or properly licensed
- Note any usage restrictions or required credits upfront
- Organize files and naming so the batch stays easy to track
Transcription and content mapping
Spoken or written source material is converted into text, then mapped into themes, sections, and standout passages that will shape the finished deliverables.
- Produce or review a transcript of the source material
- Identify recurring themes and the most quotable or useful passages
- Flag anything unclear that needs a second listen or read
Show notes, summaries, and articles
This is the drafting stage: turning the mapped content into the actual deliverables clients receive, written faithfully to the original source.
- Draft structured show notes with timestamps and highlights
- Write a concise summary that captures the core value of the source
- Produce a derivative article suited for blog or newsletter use
Attribution and factual quality assurance
Before anything goes out, every quote, link, and credit is checked — this is where accuracy and rights compliance are protected.
- Verify quotes against the original transcript or article
- Confirm links, references, and media credits are correct
- Check that attribution matches any licensing terms
Batch planning and delivery
Finished pieces are organized into a clear, reviewable batch. Publishing itself remains the client’s responsibility.
- Package deliverables with clear labels and version notes
- Prepare a short review summary for the client
- Hand off the batch with any open questions flagged
