For podcasts, networks & the brands that back them

The podcast advertising agency that guarantees the numbers.

Podcast sponsorships are sold on guaranteed impressions, and organic reach alone rarely covers them. HYAD runs the paid social delivery behind podcast branded content for the biggest podcast network in the UK, from The Rest Is Football to The Rest Is History to The Rest Is Politics.

What we run for podcasts

Sponsors delivered, audiences grown, tours sold out.

The full commercial engine behind a podcast, run by the team trusted by Goalhanger and We Have Ways.

01

Sponsor campaigns, delivered on guarantee

Sponsor clips, announcement posts and host integrations carry contractual numbers. We put precisely-targeted paid spend behind them across Meta, TikTok, YouTube and Snapchat, monitored daily, so every impressions guarantee is met on schedule. The same engine that powers our branded content delivery.

  • Boosting and dark posts behind sponsor content, correctly tagged and compliant
  • Delivery pacing mapped to the campaign window
  • Reporting the sponsor trusts, so the renewal follows

02

Podcast marketing & listener growth

Between sponsor campaigns, the show itself is the asset. We run always-on listener acquisition and social growth behind podcasts, proven on the biggest podcast network in the UK. A bigger, better-defined audience makes every future sponsorship easier to sell and cheaper to deliver.

  • Listener acquisition across Meta, TikTok, YouTube and Snapchat
  • Clip and episode amplification that compounds the audience
  • Growth for the accounts brands actually check before they buy

03

Live tours & ticket sales

When a podcast goes on the road, we sell the seats. The Rest Is Politics toured the US on sell-out shows with HYAD behind the ticket campaigns, and We Have Ways runs its festival on the same engine. Explore conversion campaigns.

  • Ticket campaigns measured on revenue, not clicks
  • Announcement, on-sale and final-push phases run as one funnel

Questions podcasts and networks ask

Straight answers.

What does a podcast advertising agency actually do?

Most podcast advertising agencies broker ad reads. HYAD works the other side of the deal: the paid social delivery behind podcast branded content. When a show sells a sponsorship with guaranteed impressions on clips, announcement posts and integrations, we run the boosting, dark posts and precision targeting that make sure those numbers are met, proven on the biggest podcast network in the UK.

How is a podcast marketing agency different?

A podcast marketing agency grows the show itself: listener acquisition, follower growth and audience building between sponsor campaigns. HYAD runs both sides, so the audience we grow for the show is the same audience that makes the next sponsorship easier to sell and easier to deliver.

We are an agency with podcasts on our roster. Can you deliver for them?

Yes. Talent agencies, podcast networks and media agencies bring us their roster's brand deals and we run the delivery engine behind them: guaranteed KPIs hit, reporting the brand trusts, under your banner or ours, whichever the agreement requires.

What does podcast advertising with HYAD cost?

Pricing follows the campaign: a management fee scaled to media spend, agreed before anything goes live. Tell us the guarantee, the shows and the window, and we will come back with the plan and the number.
