Getting advertisers, the agency, and the network back on the same page

An established, high-profile networked podcast was falling behind on ads and aggravating the people who paid for them. We put a strategy together, wrote stronger copy, and steadied the relationship between the ad agency, the advertisers, and the client.

The client

The situation

The show still had reach, but ad delivery and creative weren’t keeping up. Advertisers were unhappy. The network was feeling it. The ad agency was stuck in the middle. Without a clear plan, the podcast risked losing trust on every side of the deal.
