This has led to a growing audience for podcasts, attracting advertisers who want to reach these engaged listeners. Advertisers are drawn to the unique nature of podcast advertising, which allows for targeted and personalized messaging to a highly engaged audience.

Trends in the market:

As a result, they are allocating more of their advertising budgets towards podcast advertising. This trend is driven by the increasing number of podcasts and the growing audience base, which provides advertisers with a larger reach and more opportunities to connect with consumers. Another trend in the market is the diversification of podcast formats. While interview-style podcasts have been popular for many years, there is now a growing variety of formats, including storytelling, true crime, and educational podcasts. This diversification allows advertisers to choose podcasts that align with their brand and target audience, ensuring that their ads are reaching the right listeners.

Methodology

Data coverage:

Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on podcast advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers podcast streaming ads.

Modeling approach:

market size is determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party reports, web traffic, and survey results from our primary research (e.g., Statista Global Consumer Survey) to analyze the markets. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, internet users, consumer spending, and digital consumer spending.

Forecasts:

We use a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the market. For instance, the S-curve function is well suited to forecast digital products due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption, whereas exponential trend smoothing (ETS) is more suited for projecting steady growth in traditional advertising markets.

Additional notes:

Data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice per year in case market dynamics change.
