Bottom Line
Our podcast show engages listeners in a way that traditional media simply can’t, nor ever will.
When we speak in a listener’s ear, it feels as if they’re being spoken to more directly, and your brand message is meant for them. Audience members form relationships with us and those who advertise their brand message on our platform. Unlike traditional media, our show goes ANYWHERE the listener goes.
As a result, many listeners say that our podcast becomes a part of their routine, whether it be their commute, exercise regime, housecleaning or other rituals. Because they can listen while doing other things, they consume more of the content. They are engaged intellectually and emotionally with the content, not just flipping through a magazine at the page after page of glossy mind-numbing ads.
