Smarter Campaigns with Lasting Impact

When launching audio campaigns, it's essential to be as strategic as possible, focusing on audience-first targeting. Taking this step will help you create personalized messages based on advanced segmentation tactics, rather than taking a broad, one-size-fits-all approach. 

Using data, you can target your ideal customer on podcasts, terrestrial and satellite radio, and streaming platforms. This data will also aid in the creative development process, enabling you to tailor content to the listening environment. For example, comparing driving time, streaming, and podcasts. Consider variables such as distractibility, state of mind, and relationship to the content. 

You must then invest in performance measurement and attribution (especially in digital/programmatic audio).

How It Happens

(1) Run Terrestrial Radio Campaigns

This strategy involves placing ads on traditional, over-the-air radio stations — it is an affordable, established medium. If you want to reach a broad audience, this is an ideal start.

(2) Target with Streaming and Digital Audio Ads

You can target more specific audiences on platforms like Spotify and podcast streaming services. Placement and dynamic insertion are two areas to consider.

(3) Build Trust with Podcast Sponsorships and Ads

Create and launch engaging ads for niche audiences to foster trust and increase awareness. You can test and optimize to refine your approach.

(4) Optimize Spend with Programmatic Audio Buying

This data-driven, automated process can help you purchase ad space effectively. Symphonic Digital can help you navigate DSPs to target specific listeners and optimize real-time bidding strategies, ensuring budget efficiency and improving ROI.

(5) Personalize with Dynamic Creative

Take advantage of dynamic creative audio ads that automatically adjust based on factors like time of day, listener history, location, and even weather.
