Speaker: Is it hard to build a team?
Speaker: What are your experiences?
Speaker: Miko, we are going to be back.
Speaker: Mahira pero maganda rin kasi yun sa technology natin.
Speaker: So I use Slack.
Speaker: I use Airtable.
Speaker: Nag-try ako pero nawindang ako.
Speaker: Sabi ko balik na lang tayo sa Trello.
Speaker: Nawindang ako doon kasi pinag-aralan ko hindi ko maintindihan.
Speaker: So yun.
Speaker: Yung sa communication tool.
Speaker: So ginagamit ko yun yung WhatsApp for security to urgent communication.
Speaker: Yun.
Speaker: Yun yung...
Speaker: It's just challenging for you to see the difference between the time difference.
Speaker: Because there are different times, then there are deadlines.
Speaker: And communication is urgent.
Speaker: Because if it's delayed, if the show notes delay, the editor has already edited, it's been added to the show notes.
Speaker: It depends on whether it's delayed, then the show notes will not do anything.
Speaker: So, that's just the challenge I've seen.
Speaker: But so far,
Speaker: God bless technology unless walang internet or nag-outbreak sila or yan ang problema.
Speaker: See, dahil walang lagi si Miko, hindi siya nakapag-roll the ball.
Speaker: Si R.A.
Speaker: Sa akin naman, siguro yung quality assurance.
Speaker: Although trusted naman yung quality sa team, pero syempre, ikaw pa rin yung direct na...
Speaker: Contact client and they will be able to meet you all.
Speaker: There are times when you serve multiple clients and the episodes you need to be able to meet.
Speaker: You are a QA, you are going to review.
Speaker: So, it's all the tasks.
Speaker: It's the quality of the audio, the show notes, the audiograms, the social media.
Speaker: So, you need to check each other, so you can pass it to the client so you can less back and forth of the review points of the client.
Speaker: That's it.
Speaker: You, Se.
Speaker: For me, more than the tech and QA, when I started to delegate, I was a problem with trust issues.
Speaker: Because, of course, coming from a one-man agency handling multiple clients.
Speaker: Because, since I was so lunatic at work, I handle 10 shows by my own.
Speaker: And, no, I didn't have a feeling.
Speaker: Parang ako lang yung marunong dito.
Speaker: Pag ipinagawa ko ito sa iba, magkakamali sila, let's mawala yung client.
Speaker: Alam niyo, yun yung parang naging struggle ko nung una na hindi ko siya mapakawalan yung task kasi natatakot ako na mawala yung client.
Speaker: And then, it was a trigger for me.
Speaker: I had time with my kids.
Speaker: My first time I had school, my kid was not a kid.
Speaker: So, I had a kid.
Speaker: I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: I h ad a kid with my kids.
Speaker: I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I h ad a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I h ad a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.
Speaker: So, I had a kid with my kids.

Speaker: So, I had a kid.
Speaker: So, I had a kid.
Speaker: So, I had a kid.
Speaker: So, I had a kid.
Speaker: So, I had a kid.
Speaker: So, I h ad a kid.
Speaker: Pasaway kasi ako nung mula.
Speaker: Wala talaga yung process.
Speaker: But eventually, I needed to step up and do delegation.
Speaker: Ayan.
Speaker: Ikaw ating Eloy.
Speaker: The challenge is probably the same.
Speaker: Like RA, QA.
Speaker: The CCE, the trust.
Speaker: In my case, the most important thing is the delegation.
Speaker: I'm hard to identify where he's going.
Speaker: So you have to let me know if you're already struggling.
Speaker: Well, ano ako, hindi, kumpaga, bigay lang ako ng bigay unless you tell me something na merong mali.
Speaker: Saka lang ako mag-i-step back and then I will, ano, parang o-audit ko nga.
Speaker: Teka nga, oo nga, ano, baka binibigay ko sa kanya to.
Speaker: Hindi naman pala ito yung, ano niya, core skill niya.
Speaker: Kaya parang, ano, revamp ako ng revamp.
Speaker: I've been looking for it because I didn't identify myself that I was going to say, this is what I was doing.
Speaker: I gave everything to them.
Speaker: And then, I said, I should know what I'm doing.
Speaker: Because I know that I was doing it.
Speaker: If she's doing trust issues, I can give it.
Speaker: I gave it.
Speaker: And then...
Speaker: I expect a hundred percent results like mine.
Speaker: That's what I was doing.
Speaker: Which is, I think, a very bad experience.
Speaker: So I'm sorry.
Speaker: Forgive me for what I'm talking about.
Speaker: You, Kai.
Speaker: Okay.
Speaker: So, for me, maybe...
Speaker: The advantage is that I have a group that I teach.
Speaker: One of my strategies is to teach and to filter what I can get to be with me in the agency.
Speaker: So the challenge we made for podcast editing before.
Speaker: It helped me filter who I can trust because you will be able to see a preview of who the action takers, who the performers.
Speaker: So, the preview I saw there was like, at some sort, my trust was advanced.
Speaker: So, okay, I can try this.
Speaker: So, I think that's the advantage.
Speaker: But as we go along, of course there are roadblocks and such.
Speaker: I think my struggle is that there are certain things that you can see, but you can't put it into words.
Speaker: So you need to construct it.
Speaker: I have understood that it should be different.
Speaker: kahit ikaw minsan lito ka, paano mo i-explain?
Speaker: Ganon.
Speaker: So, ayun, ginagawa ko ng loom, tapos minsan kinakausap po yung sarili ko, paano ba to?
Speaker: Paano kayo i-explain?
Speaker: Like, for example, sa editing.
Speaker: Sa editing kasi, kung bagay yung sa audio-wise, yung sa loudness, ganyan, basta yung sa audio-wise, ano yun, that's another thing.
Speaker: Pero yung content-wise, for example, may part na kailangan kang i-cut, pero kailangan complete yung thought, that's another skill, eh, of a podcast editor, na...
Speaker: I think, ano, yun pa yung isang kailangan kong tulungan yung mga editors ko ngayon.
Speaker: Pero so far, they're doing great naman.
Speaker: So, yun, siguro yun yung, ano ko, yun yung isa sa mga, ano ko ngayon, challenges.
Speaker: Ayon.
Speaker: Okay.
Speaker: This is really good, no?
Speaker: Kasi for those who are really thinking about, you know, leveling it up after you know the ideas, parang, ano ka na eh, yun na yung kasunod mo, yun na yung next talaga sa level mo.
