3 tips for converting onboarding docs to podcast

Field-tested patterns from teams already shipping audio with Sprep.

1

Lead with the company mission in the first 60 seconds โ€” new hires retain it 4ร— better than when it's buried on slide 12.

2

Split each module into 5โ€“8 minute episodes that match a commute or coffee break, not a 90-page wiki.

3

Use a Q&A format for policies and SOPs โ€” spoken dialogue activates memory better than bullet points.
