How Brands Scale Their Podcast Influence with Todd Gallet

I had one of the most open and honest conversations with Todd Gallet, Head of Partnerships at Podcorn, about how brands (if they are strategic about it) can book tons of inventory on smaller shows and get better results than trying to run on one or two huge well-known shows.

"Not every brand is an excellent fit for the biggest shows. So if you're a new brand getting into the space and you're going to go after Joe Rogan, it could be a huge miss, quite frankly. You're going to get the audience, but it's not necessarily going to convert. You can move downstream to smaller shows for more inventory, and it also allows you to test more cost-effectively and then scale."

Todd and I discuss how he is helping smaller podcasts and brands find an easy way to connect and partner together, and how advertisers with larger budgets can scale with smaller shows.

Todd comes from an influencer ad sales background then successfully transitioned into podcast ad sales. "Influencer marketing and podcast advertising are almost an exact parallel. We were a marketplace for YouTubers, and all of that was about finding the host who had the right personality, the proper connection with your brand, and who could authentically deliver an endorsement. To me, podcasting is the exact same thing."

We also cover why setting expectations upfront is critical to campaign success, and also why no ROI is not necessarily a loss.
