In this milestone 200th episode, host Heather Osgood takes a look back at some of the most defining conversations and insights shared over the years on The Podcast Advertising Playbook. From the early days of educating marketers on podcast ad basics to tackling today’s complex issues around distribution, targeting, and ROI, this episode reflects on how far the industry (and this podcast) has come.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
