INSIGHT

Host Reads Command Higher Trust And CPM

  • Host-read ads deliver higher trust and about a $45 CPM because listeners are less likely to skip them.
  • Authenticity in endorsements matters more than squeezing every possible advertiser onto the show.
ADVICE

Vet Sponsors; Say No To Crypto And Gambling

  • Avoid sponsorships from crypto, gambling, and sketchy financial products that prey on young men.
  • Vet advertisers, prefer responsible firms like Vanguard or Public, and run a thumbs-up/thumbs-down review every episode.
ADVICE

Use Geographic Arbitrage For Work

  • Consider geographic arbitrage to chase tax-credit hubs like New Jersey, Georgia, or Canada.
  • Be open to relocating or traveling where production dollars concentrate to secure steadier work.
