We worked with Create Video on a recent listings. Anthony took care of the video and made sure everything stayed on track, while Jan handled the photos, floor plan, and virtual staging. They were super easy to communicate with, quick to reply, and delivered everything fast. I’m so happy with how it all turned out. The listing looks great. Thanks you guys!

I run a detailing shop and needed an instagram video done for the business, didn’t really know what to expect but Create Video made it easy. I’m not great with cameras or any of this stuff but they explained everything and were super straight forward to work with. They showed up, got the shots, and didn’t waste any time. The video came out awesome, looks clean and shows off what we do. Got a couple new customers already. These guys know what they’re doin.

Audio production agencies create radio, streaming, and podcast commercials, including scripting, casting, voice-over, recording, mixing, and mastering.
In the United States, audio is now a mass-reach channel, considering 79% of Americans age 12+ listen to online audio monthly, according to Edison Research.
Podcasts have become mainstream, according to research that shows 55% of Americans listen to podcasts monthly, and 40% weekly.
The demand for audio services is growing rapidly.
According to IBISWorld, the United States alone has more than 25,000 audio production studios. It generates roughly $1.8 billion in annual revenue, while the broader professional audio market exceeded $12.5 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach over $17 billion by 2030.
Globally, the audio recording services market is projected to exceed $4.3 billion, reflecting growing demand for high-quality studio production.
This growth is also driven by the expansion of podcasts, streaming music, video production, branded content, social media marketing, and feature film production.
Podcast ads can drive unusually strong brand lift. Namely, Nielsen reports aided recall of 71% for podcast advertising vs 50% for people not exposed to them, and brand awareness lift of 13 percentage points in podcasts.
The IAB's FY2023 study reports $1.9B in U.S. podcast ad revenue in 2023, projected to exceed $2B in 2024 and reach nearly $2.6B by 2026, which is a strong signal that businesses keep investing in the channel.
The global audio post-production services market was valued at about $9 billion in 2024 and is growing at nearly 6.9% annually, driven largely by the film, advertising, gaming, and music industries.
The best audio production companies create reusable brand elements for branded content and social media, such as:

Some studios also offer daily rates. Mid-range professional studios often cost $500-$1,000 per day for recording sessions.

Simple projects like podcasts or social media audio may be completed within a few days, while larger projects such as feature film soundtracks or music albums can take several months.Â
Large productions such as feature films, documentaries, or television series require more time because they involve extensive sound design, dialogue editing, Foley recording, and multi-channel mixing.Â
