Jottings of note:
How many?
What is the optimal number of ads in an audio ad break? That’s what Ad Results Media (ARM) wondered, and the company recently completed a 14 month study of how podcast ads perform based on the number of ads in a commercial break. The analysis looked at over $80 million in ad spend and compared performance among different buckets of ad counts in a commercial break. The short takeaway: Two per break in podcasting gets better results than three or four spots. Five ads? Don’t do it. See the complete results HERE.
