B2B and Spoken Word Media - The Special Relationship

The Media Roundtable is back, and we’re tackling all the nuances of one of the thorniest, most misunderstood, and most rewarding parts of audio advertising: B2B. This deep dive was inspired by the excellent recent report by Pierre Bouvard (Chief Insights Officer, Cumulus Media | Westwood One) on reaching B2B decision-makers through audio. “You can't just say, ‘hey, let's give audio a shot–we're just going to throw a bunch of money at it and see what happens.’ You really need to hone in on what you expect will happen and what your benchmarks for success are going to be.” - Rion Swartz (VP, Brand Marketing, Constant Contact) Hosting again is Oxford Road founder and CEO Dan Granger, with Pierre Bouvard himself, and an all-star crew of deep thinkers with extensive B2B chops: James Ingrassia (EVP, Client Services, Oxford Road), Neal Lucey (EVP, Strategy & Product, Oxford Road), and Rion Swartz (VP, Brand Marketing, Constant Contact). Together they’re talking all things B2B audio including balancing the long-term and short-term, why everyone should look beyond Business, why good things take time, and a whole lot more.
