Does your brand need a podcast?

Does your brand need a podcast??

Intelligent Squared is one of the world’s leading forums for live discussion and debate. We also make podcasts with brands including CHANEL, Y TREE and Sotheby’s. Pairing our team of award-winning, standout creatives with our own brand equity, we are uniquely placed to produce innovative, thought-provoking content for your brand.

Podcasting as a medium is uniquely placed to talk to your audience. A study commissioned by the BBC found that organisations with branded podcasts can see an 89% increase in awareness, a 57% rise in brand consideration and a 14% increase in purchase intent.

So why should your business have a branded podcast?

  • Podcast audiences actively want to hear from you: 93% of people who start a podcast listen to most or all of the episode. That’s their choice and we have to earn their attention. Capture their hearts and minds by creating content they love
  • Your brand is unique – take this opportunity to say so: 74% of podcast users listen to podcasts to learn something new. Your podcast will help tell your story to your audience – in your way. Connect with them when they are at their most engaged
  • Reach the audiences you care about: 7 in 10 Gen Z and Millennials are listening to podcasts. Your podcast will meet younger, affluent, engaged consumers when they are leaning in
  • Create a real connection: Three quarters of 13-35 year-olds feel warmly towards brands that promote their products on a podcast. Listeners are 22% more likely to remember a brand mentioned on a podcast versus an ad on TV. Podcasts are the ultimate close-to-me choice of media, meaning audiences have an unusually intimate relationship with podcasts they like – and the brands that support them

These might include: increasing awareness for your brand values, reaching a new target audience, increasing your social following or mailing list, winning awards, being recognised in press, or increasing traffic to a particular campaign. We’ll target our proposal to ensure it works with your goals. Get in touch now to get started!

Branded podcasts can come in many different forms. It’s all about finding the right one for you! But feel free to take a look at the huge variety of content we’ve made already for brands including CHANEL, Sotheby's and Selfridges.
Of course! We can make you a one-off episode that sounds incredible. However, we would usually recommend starting with a limited series. That way you can dip your toe in the water while giving your audience more of your content in following episodes. Get in touch to find out more about the difference between one-off episodes and a limited series.
