Sounds Profitable - 27 February 2024: *AM/FM Radio And Podcasts Deliver Decision Makers For Business-To-Business Advertisers by Pierre Bouvard - An important aspect of business-to-business marketing is not creating demand out of thin air, but getting a company’s name out in hopes of “being known before they are needed.” In a report focusing on the B2B side of audio, Bouvard points to some of the most successful AM/FM radio and podcast advertisers being B2B brands like Staples, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter. According to Magellan AI data tracking podcast ad spend, B2B brands have spent $182 million in the past 14 months. And podcasting proves to be a well-stocked pond for B2B. Edison Podcast Metrics for Q4 of last year found 53% of weekly podcast listeners participate in purchase decisions at work, and 17% of weekly podcast listeners are business owners. [Source] / Media Buying in 2024—How TV Investment Strategies are Evolving by Parker Herren - As advertising evolves in the digital age, so do the mechanics of yearly upfronts. This year’s TV upfronts are expected to focus primarily on audience data and programmatic buying, with the actual content of the TV shows involved taking somewhat of a back seat. There is also further discussion of the ongoing question: in a world where massive deals can be made with the click of a button, is there utility in the industry getting together every year for expensive, elaborate upfronts? Regardless of the future of the practice, currently programmatic and audience data are king. Which is good news for podcasting, an industry with a burgeoning programmatic sector and where first party audience data is plentiful. [Source] / Online advertising spend reaches $14.7 billion in CY23 - IAB Australia has published the 2023 edition of their Online Advertising Expenditure Report, made in collaboration with PwC Australia. Total advertising spend for the country increased 3.7% year over year. Less than the projection of 9.1% from late 2022, but still a positive number in a rocky year for advertising overall. Digital audio outpaced every other digital ad format with a 21% increase. Narrowing down to just podcasting, investment increased 21.7%, bringing in $99.1 million AUD. [Source] / …as for the rest of the news: The Media Leader and AdTonos CEO Michal Marcinik examine what audio advertising can learn about audibility from Michael Jackson’s Thriller, a song famously mixed with cheap speakers to ensure it sounded good on any device. / PodBible has launched a monthly Industry Spotlight column where Acast CEO Ross Adams goes behind the scenes on the podcast industry.

StarDate - 26 February 2024: *Adaptive Optics - Sirius, the brightest star in the night sky, is in the south at nightfall. If you keep your eye on it for a few seconds, though, you’ll see that Sirius isn’t steady. It twinkles fiercely. It gets brighter and fainter, and it changes color rapidly — from red to blue to pure white. / The twinkling is beautiful — unless you’re an astronomer. Twinkling blurs and distorts the view of stars and other objects. That makes pictures of the universe look fuzzy — not good if you’re trying to see the smallest possible details. But astronomers have found a way to overcome the blur — a technique known as adaptive optics…

Sounds Profitable - 28 February 2024: *Radio on the Move - Not-for-profit Canadian radio trade association Radio Connects has published new 2023 data on the audio industry’s growth in the country, created in partnership with Signal Hill Insights. Of Canadians aged 18+ surveyed, 14% spend their audio listening time with podcasts, edging out music streaming (which sits at 11% of time listened). When narrowed down to adults 18-49, podcasting accounts for 23% of audio time, a 3% year-over-year increase from 2022. [Source] / Listeners say: Keep audio ads simple and not too loud by Brad Hill - Veritonic and AI firm RealEyes have partnered to create the Veritonic Audio Attention Report. The survey filmed respondents as they listened to four sample ads, with each iteration adding more elements and louder volume. The experiment measured listener reactions to poor production quality. For the ad with the least volume, 32% of respondents found it less likable than normalized volume levels. 36% of respondents had the highest attention quality with the version of the ad containing the highest voiceover volume. Keeping an ad creative engaging, but scaling back complexity and layered audio elements boosts efficacy. A well-balanced, normalized ad is doubly important in podcasting, an industry with years of experience with show content clashing with high-volume ads. [Source] / How Criteo is playing within Google’s Privacy Sandbox by Ryan Barwick - Criteo, an adtech company that works on both the supply and demand sides of the industry with commercial and retail verticals, is not the most optimistic about Google’s upcoming post-cookie world. In a recent earnings call, CFO Sarah Glickman said the company expects signal loss to the tune of $30 million to $40 million in the back half of this year, in line with their 2022 predicted loss of $140 to $160 across 2024 and 2025 due to third party cookies being retired. Podcasting has been naturally insulated to the death of the cookie thanks to the industry’s focus on first-party data, instead of leveraging ad spend on third-party cookies. For more of a podcasting perspective, we spoke to Krystina Rubino, General Manager of Offline Practice at Right Side Up: “Brands are being forced to get more creative in their measurement approach to get over and around cookies, in a way that’s very familiar to those already investing in audio and offline marketing. Brands who have been active in podcasting will continue to see strong performance assuming they are running optimized campaigns. And, brands who’ve dabbled or stayed on the sidelines may look to the medium to diversify their media mix once they start seeing diminished targeting accuracy, and as their measurement is more and more impacted by the coming changes.” [Source] / 2024 Begins On An Upward Note, U.S. Ad Market Posts Best January Ever by Joe Mandese - Despite fears of macroeconomic change and a new recession, the U.S. ad market has yet to post a negative monthly change in ad spend since March of 2023. The Guideline US Ad Market Tracker has been updated to include January’s ad spend numbers and brings the count up to 10 months of positive change, ranging from the lowest point (0.6%) in April to July’s peak of 6%. This forward momentum last month is attributed to smaller ad categories, which rose an aggregate 5.3%. [Source] / …as for the rest of the news:

StarDate - 27 February 2024: *Canopus - When you’re headed toward the Moon or planets, there are no signposts to keep you on the right track. Fortunately, nature provides its own markers: the stars. Spacecraft orient themselves by sighting on the Sun and one or more other stars. In the early days of space exploration, the most popular of those stars was Canopus.

Canopus is a good navigational beacon because of a combination of brightness and location. It’s the second-brightest star in the night sky — only Sirius outshines it. And it’s far south in the sky, in a region with no other bright stars. That makes it an easy-to-find target…
