Audio advertising is a powerful driver of brand favorability and recall. In an era of screen fatigue, audio breaks through. Whether it’s radio or podcasts, audio reaches consumers in focused moments, driving impact across the funnel.
Audio advertising is a powerful digital format that delivers ads to listeners through streaming platforms, podcasts, digital radio, and voice-enabled devices. Unlike traditional radio, digital audio ads can be precisely targeted using real-time audience data—reaching users based on interests, behaviors, location, and more. These ads are typically delivered between songs or podcast segments and are designed to integrate seamlessly into the listening experience without requiring a screen.
Great storytelling doesn’t always need a screen. From the top of the funnel to the point of conversion, audio keeps brands present and persuasive. Through podcast and streaming audio, you can reach audiences in moments of attention where listeners absorb your message while commuting, working out, or relaxing. Quantcast makes audio measurable and actionable. We help brands deliver messages in contextually relevant audio environments through smart creative and clear calls-to-action, leaving a lasting impression with repeatable messaging.
