Media Voices is a weekly publication profiling the people and products powering publishing. We publish The Publisher Podcast and The Publisher Newsletter every Tuesday, featuring an interview with a leading publishing executive on our core subject areas; podcasts, newsletters, apps, websites, print, analytics, data and AI. Our focus is on the practical takeaways publishers can apply to their own products.
As well as the podcast and newsletter, we also run monthly online masterclasses, and an annual Awards and Summit programme dedicated to publisher podcasts and newsletters.
Podcast sponsorship is one of the main ways we fund our work and we carefully choose our partners to make sure they’re right for us and our audience. Our podcast options are below, but we also do Spotlight feature articles, newsletter adverts and reports as standalone products. Just drop peter [at] voices [dot] media a line for more information or if you’d like us to put together a proposal for you.
Season sponsorship:
For the first time, we’re opening up sponsorship across three seasons per year of 12 weeks each. Season sponsorship goes across the weekly podcast and newsletter, and includes:
- Podcast top and tail ads
- Logo/link/description on each episode page
- Newsletter top slot with image, message, CTA and link
- Website sidebar banner on voices.media
We can also add value to the above package by bundling with our regular sponsored episodes and articles.
Podcast sponsorship:
The Publisher Podcast has been the core of the Media Voices Brand since launching in 2016. Our podcast audience has built steadily since then and we are now known as one of the top media industry podcasts*.
We have a range of different podcast-only sponsorship options to help you reach our core audience of mid- to senior-level publishing executives in a style that is right for you, from short interviews to full podcast documentaries.
All our podcasts come with an 800+ word written Spotlight article to support promotion of the episode. Sponsored episodes feature opening and closing host reads of vendor promotions, as well as newsletter advertising. For more detailed descriptions of each podcast, please see our pack (below).
