**How many clients can one editor handle?**

Question

Accepted Answer

With good tools and templates, one experienced editor can manage 8-12 active clients producing weekly content. That's roughly 35-50 episodes per month, generating 300-500 clips.

**Should we specialize in a niche (e.g., only podcasts)?**

Specializing accelerates your learning curve and lets you build better templates. Agencies that focus on B2B podcasts, fitness content, or educational channels build deeper expertise and can charge premium rates.

**What's the minimum viable team to start?**

One person can run a clipping service for 3-5 clients using AI tools. To grow beyond that, you need at minimum: one editor (production), one account manager (client communication), and one QC reviewer (quality).

**How do we handle clients who want unlimited revisions?**

Define revision scope clearly in your contract. Include one round of revisions. After that, revisions are billed hourly. Most clients self-regulate when revisions have a cost.

**Is video clipping a good standalone service or only an add-on?**

Both work. Standalone clipping agencies exist and are profitable. But the highest margins come from bundling clipping with services you already offer — social media management, podcast production, or video editing.
