Hello!
I just finished up May’s letter (look for it Sunday!), but wanted to pop in to share the trailer for my new podcast, INSIDE | OUTSIDE! Take a listen on Spotify and Apple or wherever you listen to your pods. The trailer explains the premise of the show, so I’ll just let you listen to get the details (it’s only a minute long).
AND
I thought a lot about how I wanted to do ads for this first season. In the past, I was either working with an ad network who secured all my ads - or I would reach out to brands, who would buy the whole season. But for this first season, I wanted to do something different.
Because of our reader-submitted gift guide we do during the holidays, I know how many amazing business owners / brand managers are readers, so I’m opening up the ad spaces to subscribers here (paid and unpaid). You don’t have to be a big mattress or clothing brand, all products and services are welcome…no matter the size. With the caveat that it has be to be something I could/would use (to properly endorse it). For example, I couldn’t do an ad for beef jerky, because I don’t eat meat.
While this is a new podcast, it will be running on the One Part Podcast feed, so there is already a great built-in audience and your ad will be heard. Unlike social media ad buys, there is no algorithm to mess with people seeing it or not.
The cost of the ads will be $100 per episode. This is significantly less for a typical ad buy, but I can do whatever I want because I’m not with an ad network right now. I thought this price would be feasible for smaller brands or ones facing uncertainty right now (and obviously wanted to give a deal because you have supported me so much).
DETAILS:
• 90 second ad (although I generally go longer)
• Two-episode minimum (this season will have 10 episodes)
• For products, must send a sample (does not have to be the whole line, just something I can reference)
• Brand supplies two talking points they want covered in the ad
• Deadline to secure: May 30th
If you’re interested, reply to this email or get in touch at jess(at)onepartplant.com. If there are no takers, you’ll have to listen to me promote myself on every episode…
And look for this month’s letter coming to you Sunday!
Thanks!
Jessica
