- Jul 17: Should you join a podcast network? Stephen Perlstein of Libsyn tells us how to vet any deal you're offered - as recorded in Podcast Movement last year.
- Jun 26: A new show has just started from a longtime contributor to NPR's Planet Money. Gastronomics, which has been signed by Libsyn, will focus on the business of food. In each episode, Alex Mayyasi talks with chefs, economists, and industry insiders to explore how economics shapes the modern menu. The first episode looks at Domino's pizza tracker - and why it's responsible for the way the Uber app looks.
- Jun 23: Does podcast advertising work for Dominos Pizza? Libsyn has released a case study detailing how they helped the chain improve awareness of the company’s specialty pizzas, drove higher purchase intent (by up to +15 points), and strengthened brand perception by 20 points. (Libsyn’s report doesn’t mention Dominos by name: but we used a top-secret piece of internet technology called a “search engine” to unmask them).
- May 29: "Advertisers run multiple attribution systems because media players won't align on how to measure ad response. We can't even agree on a shared definition of a podcast." So says the Alliance for Measurement in Podcasting (AMP) - launched to create "the first podcasting measurement framework". Brought together by Oxford Road, the group, including voting members from Spotify, United Talent Agency, SiriusXM, DraftKings, Libsyn and others, have been working in secret since last summer, driven by what it calls industrywide confusion: both a lack of standardized metrics and disagreement about where podcasts end and social videos (as well as other forms of video) begin. The group suggests that "a billion dollars of demand is sitting on the sidelines"; it plans to introduce a new unified framework for use across audio and video at Oxford Road’s upcoming CAO Summit on July 22nd-23rd at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes CA, USA.
