Podcast & video production support for technology companies

By Zack Pennington, CEO Updated

Technology companies increasingly use podcasts and video content to build thought leadership, attract developer communities, and explain complex products to non-technical buyers. But producing consistent, polished episodes takes hours your engineers, PMs, and founders don't have. A Nacho specialist handles the production workflow so your team stays focused on the work that actually requires their expertise.

Tools we work with: Descript Adobe Audition Buzzsprout Opus Clip

Can a Virtual Assistant handle podcast & video production for tech companies?

Yes. Nacho matches tech companies with a vetted, 100% US-based Specialist who owns podcast & video production week after week, not a one-off task. Onboarding starts with a $300 Delegation Strategy Plan, your Talent Budget starts at $1,000 a month, and matching takes about a week.

How it works

How your Specialist owns podcast & video production for tech companies

A Nacho EA steps into your existing production workflow: whether you're recording in Riverside.fm, Zencastr, or a local studio setup, and takes over the post-recording tasks that eat up your team's time. That means downloading raw audio and video files, running them through tools like Descript or Adobe Audition for cleanup and editing, syncing with your video editor or handling basic cuts in CapCut or DaVinci Resolve, and exporting finished files formatted for YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever your audience lives. They'll also write SEO-optimized show notes, pull timestamps, create transcript summaries, and schedule uploads through Buzzsprout, Transistor, or your preferred host. Your role is to record and give a quick approval, the EA handles everything in between.

Off your plate

What your Specialist takes off your plate

Before your first session with an EA, record a short Loom walking through one completed episode from raw file to published post: show exactly where files live, what tools you use, and what 'done' looks like for your show. The most common mistake tech teams make is handing off production without documenting their quality bar, then spending more time on revision feedback than they saved by delegating.

  1. Raw File Management and Edit Prep

    Download and organize raw audio/video files from Riverside.fm, Zencastr, or Dropbox, then prep them for editing with consistent naming conventions and folder structure.

  2. Audio Cleanup and Episode Editing

    Remove filler words, silence, and background noise using Descript or Adobe Audition, then assemble the final episode with intro/outro music and any sponsor reads.

  3. Video Formatting for YouTube and Social Clips

    Export edited video in platform-specific formats, create short highlight clips for LinkedIn or Twitter/X, and add captions using Descript or Rev transcripts.

  4. Show Notes and SEO Metadata Writing

    Write keyword-optimized episode summaries, guest bios, chapter timestamps, and resource links tailored to a technical audience searching for your topics.

  5. Scheduling and Publishing Across Platforms

    Upload finished episodes to your podcast host (Buzzsprout, Transistor, or Anchor), schedule YouTube uploads, and coordinate publish dates with your content calendar in Notion or Airtable.

Client proof

Trusted by tech companies

The model

What delegating to Nacho actually looks like

This is ongoing delegation to one vetted, US-based person, not a task posted to a marketplace.

  1. Start with a Delegation Strategy Plan

    A one-time $300 onboarding fee pairs you with a Client Success Manager who maps what to hand off first. See the full process.

  2. Get matched in about a week

    We match you with a vetted, 100% US-based Specialist in your time zone. If the fit is not right, the Nacho Guarantee re-matches you free.

  3. Set a monthly Talent Budget

    Budgets start at $1,000 a month and draw across Executive Assistants from $40/hr, Specialists from $65/hr, and Fractional Executives from $125/hr. Up to $200 of unused budget rolls over each month. For marketing-led work, that senior seat is usually a Fractional CMO. See pricing in detail.

  4. Three months, then month to month

    The initial term is three months so the working relationship has time to compound, then it rolls month to month. Book a discovery call to size yours.

Good questions

Frequently asked questions

We record technical deep-dives with engineers and developers, will an EA understand the content well enough to edit and write show notes?
Your EA doesn't need to be a developer to produce your episodes well. For editing, the job is pacing, clarity, and removing mistakes, not understanding every line of code discussed. For show notes, they'll work from your transcript and any reference docs you share, and you can flag any technical terms that need specific phrasing before they start.
We don't have a consistent publishing schedule yet. Can an EA help us build one?
Yes, this is actually one of the more common starting points for tech companies. Your Client Success Manager will include a content cadence discussion in your onboarding Delegation Strategy Plan, and your EA can help map out a realistic publishing schedule based on your recording frequency and backlog.
How does billing work if some months we record four episodes and other months just one?
Nacho bills by the hour, not by the episode, so lighter production months simply use fewer hours, and up to $200 of unused budget can roll over to the following month. This makes it a practical fit for tech teams whose podcast output varies with product launch cycles or conference seasons.
