Episode Show Notes

I am fascinated by internal company podcasts and how corporate companies are taking advantage of audio to distribute communications to their employees. I have been following Graham Brown, Founder, and CEO of Pikkal, a corporate podcast agency in Singapore, for quite some time, so I invited him to talk to me about the work he does and find out how companies benefit from branded podcasts.


"There's a big group of corporate people who have a significant need. It's not a content problem; it's a communications issue. So how do they speak authentically and communicate like humans? When you put it in the corporate context, a lot of that can be lost and obscured by the parameters of how companies traditionally communicate, through white papers or press releases or through the lens of coms, which tends to edit everything."


Graham and I discuss options for advertising and why corporate podcasts are a global phenomenon. We also talk about some of the challenges Graham sees the industry facing and how we should look differently at the data we currently get from podcasts. (Which was so interesting).

Most of the time, there are statistics that I am already aware of, but then there are some outliers that either bring me joy, or shock. This year, I am happy to report that I…

I loved chatting with Lindsay Smith from Ad Results about working with their clients on brand suitability, otherwise known as brand safety. "We like to focus on the term suitability because, as an agency, we don't want to deem what shows are safe or unsafe. Instead, we want to match brands with suit…

It is very hard for brands and indie podcasters to connect. Most of it is done manually with a direct relationship, network, or representation agency, like True Native Media.
