After launching a #1-ranked photo animation app, Troy Plota had already made waves in the creative tech space. But with the rise of AI and the next evolution of his company, he needed more than product buzz – he needed founder authority.

It wasn’t just about launching another platform. It was about owning the future of creative AI.

We built a 12-show podcast campaign that placed Troy in high-authority conversations across the AI, creative innovation, design, and tech entrepreneur verticals.

Each interview focused on elevating his founder vision – moving beyond features and downloads, and into mission, message, and market leadership.

The Real Value of Podcast Visibility

This isn’t a one-minute ad. It’s thirty minutes of stage time where you’re the authority.

To quantify that, we compare it to standard podcast advertising rates. A 60-second ad typically runs $25 per 1,000 listeners.

If a show reaches 30,000 listeners, that’s $750 for a single ad.
Now extend that across a 30-minute featured interview.
That airtime is worth $22,500 by ad standards — but instead of a commercial, the episode is about you.

Apple Podcasts data shows listeners stay for 80% or more of each episode. That means they’re hearing your story, your message, and your offer.

This is visibility with gravity. Presence that builds trust.
And value that compounds long after the episode ends.

That’s authority, trust, and time working together to create real ROI.
