According to a 2017 study, most people listen to the majority of a podcast and don’t skip the ads. The effect is essentially that of having an influencer whisper into your audience’s ear, “try this.”

In this Association Chat, we explore the business of podcasts – the marketing and the opportunities presented – and the way some associations use advertising to meet their goals.
