Discover podcasts that align with your target audience, and be discovered by potential advertisers.
What is Advisor?
Advisor is a free matchmaking tool, available to publishers and advertisers, that uses machine learning to match podcasts to audiences and can be found within the Discover tab of your dashboard. Advertisers can use Advisor to discover new opportunities in podcast advertising in order to drive performance across campaigns. Advisor helps brands and agencies navigate 700+ podcasts based on audience data that matches either their industry or their past website visitors. With Advisor, you can also tap into third-party integrations with trusted partners like Nielsen and Experian to refine your target audiences even further.
Answer questions like:
- Where am I most likely to reach Males 18-34 who are interested in fitness?
- Which podcast has an audience that is already engaging with my website?
- Which podcast will deliver new reach for my brand?
- Which industries does a podcast perform best against?
How it works:
Podcast publishers opt into Advisor to feature their shows for discovery. Advertisers can then sort and filter results based on audience attributes, such as:-
- Third-Party Audience Data
- Publisher/Network
- Radio Markets
- Audience Overlap
- Industries and more
- For each show, an Affinity Score is calculated to help identify relevant shows for your brand. Affinity Scores are unique to your brand, calculated using machine learning as an aggregated comparison between a podcast's listeners and the brand's pixel data (website visitors).
- You can also evaluate which shows will garner New Reach for your brand, a number estimated based on the brand's pixel data (website visitors) and the podcast's listeners.
