Add To Cart is hosted and distributed through Acast, the home of podcasting. It wasn't until I started this podcast that I realised how powerful podcasts are in creating real connections with listeners. I love when listeners contact me and speak to me as though we’re lifelong friends - and it's great! And I know this carries over to our advertising partners. My relationship becomes their relationship. And because I value my listeners above all - I only partner with brands I would recommend as a friend. It's kind of like influencer marketing without having to see me in a swimsuit. So, if you are looking to explore the power of podcast advertising for your brand, you should check out Acast.
