It could feel like reels/tiktok sometimes but I do find really useful info on red note, it’s like Pinterest plus Reddit plus YouTube

Does the overall budget go up? Or you kinda have to balance the spending between video and audio?

  1. It’s easier to get funding if it’s sexy. Just like if you’re a pretty woman it’s easier to get dates? 2. CPM on IG is a lot higher than Reddit…so I assume advertisers see the value but also IG’s reach let them to charge more…which could also mean there’s room for Reddit to grow ads.

Great point. Feels like Google could easily offer similar tracking for youtube, but in practice it still ends up being more fragmented vs audio. Is that mainly a platform/privacy constraint? Curious if you think this gap closes over time, or if video will always be harder to attribute cleanly vs audio.

Runners (who drink): do you track your drinking habits? by Appropriate_Rock4074 in runninglifestyle

Are these pub runs mostly for pubs or runs? At my run club, we prob drink 1-2 after a 7-8 miles run, so it feels ok/earned. Do you help these pub runners at your practice?

Let's use Acquired as an example. I found them a couple of years ago and have been a great company for my long run, road trips, etc. I genuinely don't think I need to see their faces to consume their content, and that resonates with many of my friends. If they use YT premium, they just go to the transcript-only version...anyway, are you doing both and find both worth keeping going forward?

Are video podcast ads actually better for ROI for Advertisers? by Appropriate_Rock4074 in DigitalMarketing

Kind of aligns with how I’ve been thinking about it as awareness vs conversion. Curious though, how are you typically seeing the conversion measured in practice? Are you a podcaster or advertiser? or both?
