A few things that can change the price
An outro on the same melody
Many shows close with the intro's melody in a calmer version, and that can add to the price.
Music for the rest of the episode
Quiet music under segments and short cues between them can be priced in the same project.
A spoken line
If the intro speaks the name of the show, booking and recording that voice is priced on top.
A sonic logo, editing, or the whole show
A sonic logo, editing, or a whole production can come with it (podcast branding). For anything else around the show, request a proposal.

Some things to weigh before you buy
Stock intros turn up everywhere
Stock and free intros are used by many podcasts, and listeners may know yours from another show.
Written for your host
We write the intro around your show and its host. If the show also needs an outro, a trailer, or something else, ask for it in the same proposal.
How it works
Step 1
Describe the show
Send a few lines about the show and its host, and we send back a proposal with the price.
Step 2
A first version
You hear a first version of the intro and tell us what to change.
Step 3
Ready for every episode
We finish the intro, mix it with the voice if there is one, and you get final files in every format you need.
