Our Story

Built for Founders

Who We Are

The Club MCR

We built The Club MCR because we saw too many brilliant business owners with powerful stories struggling to produce content that matched their calibre.

A great podcast shouldn't require a production degree. It should be as simple as showing up, having a conversation, and walking away knowing everything else is handled.

That's what we built. A fully managed studio in the heart of Manchester, designed specifically for founders, entrepreneurs, and business leaders who want professional content without the complexity.

Our Mission

"To make professional podcast production as accessible as booking a meeting, so every founder with a story worth telling can tell it properly."

Who We Work With
  • Business owners & entrepreneurs
  • Corporate teams & brands
  • Coaches & consultants
  • Thought leaders & speakers
  • Charities & non-profits
How We're Different

Not Just a Room to Rent

🎬

An on-site team handles everything: setup, recording and delivery. You just show up.

📱
Social-First Editing

Every edit is optimised for LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok — not just YouTube.

🏙️
Manchester-Based

We're rooted in Manchester's business community. We know your audience.

📊
Distribution Support

We help you publish to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and everywhere else.

"We went for a taster session with Stefan around two months ago, and if I’m honest, the girls and I were not exactly comfortable being in front of the camera! … Stefan made the whole experience so much easier. The studio itself came out really well on camera, and the editing was fantastic. We enjoyed the experience so much that we’ve since signed up to work with Stefan regularly over the next six months."
