How Brand Advertising Is Growing in Podcasting

Radio INK examines advertising trends in podcasting in a recent article. Things are positive for podcasters. We've discussed this before, but the connection between advertisers and podcast listeners is a strong one.

Case in point, in the research mentioned in the article, 61% of listeners tended to form a more positive perception of a podcast sponsoring brand. That's sizable.

What's the takeaway? If you're a niche podcaster who can form a connection with a sizable brand, you're in luck. A smaller takeaway is the fact that listeners clearly connect with podcasts. That's really good news for creators.
​

DESIGN OF THE WEEK

Analysis: Let's just start with the regal purple that serves as the background of a podcast design that features The Royals. The crown is a nice touch too. The design is straightforward, but the font adds an air of extravagance. The mention of Newsweek, Royston covers Windsor Castle for the magazine, adds a touch of credibility for those unfamiliar with the podcast.
