How can audio & podcast advertising help your business?

Are you looking to reach a wider audience? Audio advertising might be the perfect solution for your business! We can insert your message before or during streaming music, news, and podcasts. Whether your ideal customer is listening to music on iHeartRadio or Sirius XM, or tuning into a podcast on Apple Music or Spotify, we can reach them.


Audio advertising is a powerful tool for businesses to reach potential customers and increase brand awareness. The rise of smartphones, as well as advancements in audio quality and marketing techniques means that more and more people are turning to podcasts, music, and other digital media formats while they commute to work, take care of housework, or get ready for bed.


Audio advertising is ideal for creating a targeted message that can be customized to each individual listener, and can be used in many different situations. In order to be effective, audio ads should be engaging, memorable and easily understood.

What content should be on a Programmatic Audio Ad?

First and foremost, audio ads should be no longer than 30 seconds. The shorter the ad, the more likely the listener is to retain the information and not skip the ad!


When creating content for audio advertising on multiple platforms like Spotify, iHeartRadio, and Pandora, it is important to consider the medium in which the ad will be played. This will have an impact on the length of the ad, the type of language used, and any additional audio elements that can be used to support your message.


A strong message and an enticing offer are important pieces of audio advertising, but it’s also vital to consider the audience. Creating an ad that resonates with your target demographic takes into account everything from their interests to their mood. It’s important to create content that is both entertaining and informative so that people want to listen, learn more about your company, and possibly make a purchase because of your ad.

  • I have a website and Google Ads already. Why do I need to invest in audio advertising?

    Audio ads are different from traditional web and Google Ads, as they are designed to capture the attention of the listener and create a connection with them. 

    Audio ads are also effective for businesses looking to increase brand loyalty. Audio advertising allows businesses to create a consistent message across multiple platforms, creating multi-dimensional campaigns that are more immersive for the listener. This helps to build trust and familiarity with the brand and its products or services.

  • Should I hire a marketing company to create and run my audio ads or do it myself?

    Many programmatic advertising options are only available through an agency. We have years of experience and can broadcast your ad quickly because we know what we're doing! This means your audio ads will reach your ideal client sooner than if you tried to do it yourself, increasing your brand awareness.

  • Is there a better way to increase leads for my business than audio advertising?

    We are firm believers that coupling a website & lead generation strategy with programmatic ads can help ensure you’re interacting with your target audience wherever they are in their research phase. While audio may be the best programatic ad choice for you, it doesn’t mean it’s right for everyone.
