Free Podcast Producer Service Agreement

When a client spikes the podcast after you’ve already paid the voice talent and locked the studio time, you aren't just losing future profit; you are eating hard, immediate cash you already spent. You delivered the masters, but if they never paid the final invoice, they just stole your labor and walked away with your intellectual property for free.

Pro Contractor Tip

You absolutely must bake a bulletproof 'Kill Fee' clause into your Statement of Work that kicks in based on the stage of production, not just the final delivery date.

Why use a written agreement?

Handshake deals are risky. As a Podcast Producer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.
