  • Creating an identity on social media is becoming increasingly important for brands, and leveraging popular trends like 'Brat Summer' and 'Demure' can be a quick-fire way of making headway in this respect. But it doesn't come without risk, particularly when investing in influencers and creators to send a brand's message out into the world.


    On this episode of the Performance Marketing Unlocked podcast, Ellie Hooper (16:00), Head of Client at The Goat Agency, outlines exactly how performance marketers can ace their organisation's influencer and social media marketing, whether that be organic or paid.


    Opening the episode, once again, is PMW's News Reporter Reem Makari (2:45), who has been working day and night to bring you up to speed with Google's latest antitrust trial against the US Department of Justice. Listen as Reem and Joe set the stakes, reveal the biggest takeaways from day one of the trial, and look to the future through some expert analysis.


    This podcast was hosted by PMW's Multimedia Editor, Joseph Arthur.

  • Is audio advertising a viable performance marketing channel? The millions of Brits listening to music and podcasts everyday tell us there is certainly an active audience ready to be leveraged, but UK adspend indicates that marketers aren't yet sold on the medium.


    To convince them otherwise, this episode of the Performance Marketing Unlocked podcast features Ed Couchman (20:19), Head of Sales for the UK and Northern Europe at Spotify. With over 626 million monthly active users, Ed believes Spotify represents why audio advertising is quickly becoming performance marketing's most underutilised advertising channel.


    Like any good salesman, Ed brought his pitch along with him. From the medium's success in the US to Spotify Ads Manager's litany of case studies, even the most sceptical performance marketer will be hard-pressed to ignore audio's potential.


    Opening the episode however, is PMW's News Reporter Reem Makari (2:56). Reem joined PMW from a podcasting background and famously adores the practice, so she jumped at the chance to go head-to-head with host Joe for some verbal jousting on why audio ads should demand more marketing dollars than alternative performance channels.

  • Maintaining brand safety in advertising is becoming increasingly difficult. From ensuring ads are placed within appropriate contexts to preventing wasted adspend caused by overzealous and outdated exclusion lists, modern digital advertising can be a minefield for publishers, advertisers, marketers and brands alike. And following news that X's lawsuit against the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) will see it close down the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM), brand safety just got even harder to secure.


    This episode of the Performance Marketing Unlocked podcast features PMW's Editor Robin Langford (2:29), who takes us on a whistle-stop tour of the latest stories from across our news desk, with brand safety a central theme throughout. Touching on Amazon's partnership with Pinterest and TikTok, whether or not Google will have to sell part of its adtech business, and much more.


    Also in this episode, Fiona Salmon (11:21), Managing Director of Mantis, joins us to discuss how X's lawsuit against the WFA led to the discontinuation of GARM and what the industry can expect with regard to brand safety and suitability going forward. In conversation with host Joseph Arthur, Fiona discloses why she thinks short-terminism isn't going anywhere, how Mantis is trying to help publishers get the most from their ad placements and why AI is the best path forward.

  • Who'd have thought you'd see Richard Hammond on a performance marketing podcast?


    The automotive industry – in some ways like marketing – is seeing more change than ever before which makes DriveTribe's role as content production company even more important.


    DriveTribe was originally founded by Hammond, James May and Jeremy Clarkson, but since being left by the latter two, it has transformed into an automotive media company, in-housing its content, publishing, production and marketing.
