The WEI Podcast Is Available On Apple And Spotify

You’re getting ready for the workday, whether it is going to be spent at home or in the work office. You eventually get to your desk and engage with emails, answer IT support tickets, and correspond with colleagues on the group chat. The busy start does not go without your favorite podcast, however. You pop in your ear buds and continue the podcast series that expands on whichever niche topic that interests you. The episode holds your attention just enough to enable easy learning. Whatever the topic is, you are locked in and ready to support your IT team.

Does this scenario sound familiar? It should. 2021 served as a major springboard that lifted podcasts from a niche market to a mainstream media source. According to Demand Sage, there are over 460 million podcast listeners globally with 75% of Americans at least aware of the term podcast. In fact, the United States is home to the most podcast listeners with more than 100 million active podcast listeners predicted for 2023.

The average listener will subscribe to a variety of niche subjects such as pet care, mental health, personal financing, backyard barbeque recipes, gardening, parenting hacks, and even homebrewing. Listeners can remain actively engaged without the use of a screen, thus allowing them to listen and learn while going for a walk or putting in desk time.

The platform is a great opportunity for advertisers to make their presence known, but the differences with broadcast radio in message delivery are staggering. Podcast hosts often read the promos, thus immersing themselves into the product/service and giving their own personal twist. This person-to-person messaging not only gives the featured product/service more credibility, but it also serves as a nice substitute to the standardized jingles and messaging delivered by someone completely unrelated to the podcast.
