Get exposure to new listeners.

There are 3,000,000+ entrepreneurs around the world using the Shopify platform. They are learning about the eCommerce Fastlane Podcast and going back to binge-listen episodes and absorbing the actionable content to help them grow and scale.

This means that new ears constantly hear your sponsorship long after it first went live.

The power of podcast ads to shape minds, grab attention, and grow trust is no surprise to my podcast listeners. They’re giving more extended periods of tuned-in, undistracted time to a medium that took less than a decade-and-a-half to go from new to necessity.

Each week, my existing listeners and a whole new audience are exposed to the eCommerce Fastlane Podcast for the first time. All our guests have two things in common…

    • Large audiences
    • Willingness to invest in paid acquisition to drive episode awareness

In every new episode, our featured guest shares their appearance with their audience, thus exposing the podcast and showing notes to Shopify brand owners, marketers, and entrepreneurs.
