Getting more transparent with my audio creation process, do you care?

Happy new year! I wanted to let you know what I have coming for you this month and give you a breakdown of the data behind it (if you like this sorta thing lemme know)

So I've been tracking my idea/process for years on trello but midway through last year I decided to start time tracking how long each idea takes to make it's way to you and it's been really eye opening to me at what takes me the longest to do and it has helped me to figure out how much work I can actually get done in a month and to set realistic goals for myself.

Here's what I having coming to you this month, when the idea first entered my trello board, and how long I have spent on each part of the process.

  • [GFE] off [Birth Control] and hormonally uncontrollably h-word+ sfw
    Entered Trello board life July 31 2023 ( I KNOW, some of these ideas are OLD and they just hang out on the board forever lol)

    Brainstorming: 8m
    Writing: 1h 30m
    Recording: 32m
    Editing: 48m
    Scheduling: 1h 28m (may still go up)

  • [Boss x Employee] can't offer a raise but can offer [Free Use] + sfw
    Entered Trello board life March 19 2024

    Brainstorming: 5m
    Writing: 0m (this one was an improv)
    Recording: 46m
    Editing: 1h 16m
    Scheduling: 1h 16m (may still go up)

  • Ghost of [GFE]s past teach you to love current [GFE] [Makeup S*x] +sfw
    Entered Trello board life August 10 2024 onto my "cursed ideas i will not do (maybe) with the title of "A Dickmas Carol" lol

    Brainstorming: 24m
    Writing: 2h 19m (I spent ALOT of time writing this one lolol)
    Recording: 54m
    Editing: 2h 54m
    Scheduling: 1h 59m (may still go up)

  • [Friends to Lovers] [Ski Vacation] collab + sfw
    Entered Trello board life June 12 2024 (I can't remember if this started as a collab idea or not but by the time I started writing it September 11 2024 it was)

    Brainstorming: 49m
    Writing: 7h 24m (collabs take alot alot of time to write because honestly when I am writing for myself I will shorthand alot and leave room for improv)
    Recording: 54m
    Editing: 8h 30m (she's in the edit process now bb)
    Scheduling: 0m (will go up obviously lol)

  • Get that work done now [Work Along]
    Entered Trello board life November 7 2024 (when recorded)

    Brainstorming: 0m (obvi)
    Writing: 0m (obvi)
    Recording: 42m
    Editing: 1h
    Scheduling: 23m

  • Helltaker [Let's Play]
    Entered Trello board life November 8 2024 (when recorded)

    Brainstorming: 0m (obvi)
    Writing: 0m (obvi)
    Recording: 1h 1m
    Editing: 0m (the editing actually goes in the scheduling portion of this one because it is video based and not just an audio)
    Scheduling: 1h 12m

Interesting right?!

Scheduling take the longest pretty much across the board and it's kinda surprising to me.

Also, I don't track my "admin" time so this does not include that, this is simply how much time it takes me to make audios and get them to you. I would suspect I spend about 10hrs on "admin" tasks (like writing this post lol).

Let me know if you like this sorta peek behind the curtain and are interested in more creator content like this I am happy to share. ♥

At the moment I just found you, and looking to join this month hopefully but I will say this is interesting to see and gives me a deeper appreciation for what you do. I can’t remember which one, but I saw your name attached to a collaboration and thought your audio was amazing. So I found you here. Thanks for your hard work.

I know it’s quite different but if I had to do this much planning and editing and organization to write scripts I would’ve quit writing so much faster lol Hats off to you, this looks like hard work

That is very interesting to see indeed, thank you for providing this insight :D I'm curious though, what exactly does Scheduling entail?

it's everything to get the audio to its audience after the audio is finalized and edited so like drafting the posts, making the vid or preview vid, adding visuals, all the stuff that you actually see and interact with from me for the audio apart from the actual audio
