Newsletter and podcast sponsorship
The highest-trust placements available, and the least measurable.
At a glance
What it is
“A host who will read anything is worth less than one who declines things.”
A principal, Kaelo Digital Marketing
What’s included
Four areas of scopeAudience fit over audience size
A small newsletter read by exactly your buyer outperforms a large one read by a general audience, and usually costs less.
Host credibility as the asset
In host-read formats the endorsement is the product. A host who will read anything is worth less than one who declines things — and the ones who decline are the ones worth buying.
Attribution that accepts the limits
Vanity URLs, discount codes, post-purchase survey questions and holdout testing. None is perfect. Deciding in advance what evidence will count prevents cancelling something that was working.
Commitment over one-offs
A single placement rarely reads. These channels compound through repetition with the same audience, which means a budget that cannot sustain a run should go elsewhere.
How the work runs
Shortlist by fit
Publications and shows whose audience is genuinely yours.
Evidence standard
Agreed before the first placement, not after.
Sustained run
Sized so that repetition is possible.
When to come to us
- 01 Your buyer has publications or shows they genuinely trust.
- 02 You can commit to a run rather than a single insertion.
- 03 You can accept imperfect attribution without cancelling on it.
What we do not do
- Buying a single placement and judging the channel on it.
- Requiring last-click attribution from a channel that cannot provide it.
- Scripting a host read so tightly that it stops sounding like the host.
