The fourth quarter is here, bringing with it prime shopping time. 

Retail marketers are facing a highly competitive season where every budget decision needs to prove it can drive real sales. Digital audio stands out here because it captures attention at the right moments, helping brands spark conversions and build lasting shopper loyalty.

The Retail Rush Meets the Audio Advantage

This peak shopping period brings intense competition, and brands are prioritizing media that can influence shoppers closer to the moment of purchase. Retail media spend is climbing globally, and in the US, programmatic digital audio is expected to reach $2.26 billion in 2025. The reason is simple: During Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and year-end promotions, shoppers are flooded with messages on every screen. 

Today’s shoppers move fluidly from one screen to another and from one place to the next. Someone might scroll through gift ideas on a phone during a commute, compare prices on a laptop later in the evening, then stop by a store on the drive home. Digital audio reaches people in those in-between moments, when their hands might be busy but their attention is still open.

About 79% of Americans age 12 and up listen each month, with even higher numbers among younger listeners. And it works. Studies show that audio ads create strong recall and can influence brand choice, helping turn seasonal interest into actual purchases.

Audio Adtech Has Your Back

As more shoppers tune in through digital audio, the technology behind it has accelerated to meet the pace of retail. Modern audio adtech gives marketers the flexibility and automation they need during the busiest time of year.

With the right adtech in place, retail marketers can automate key processes and still deliver ads that feel timely and personal. Imagine promoting a new line of sweaters on a cold morning or reminding a shopper about curbside pickup when they are just minutes away from your store.

This kind of agility sets the stage for what comes next, moving from reactive campaigns to storytelling that adapts to every listener’s moment.

Personalization at Scale With Dynamic Creatives

Personalized audio advertising no longer has to be complicated. By leveraging Dynamic Creatives with Synthetic Voice technology, brands can now produce studio-quality audio spots in minutes. This tech uses data such as location, weather, time of day, device type, demographics, and listening context to create millions of unique ad variations in real time. A listener in Chicago on a rainy afternoon might hear something completely different from someone in Austin on a sunny morning.

By making personalization fast and scalable, dynamic audio helps brands move beyond one-size-fits-all messaging and connect with people in more meaningful ways.

Here is how marketers use it:

  • Instant voice production: Generate natural-sounding voiceovers without studio time or voice talent.
  • Flexible workflows: Preview, edit, and launch campaigns quickly through a self-service platform.
  • Consistent branding: Maintain a unified brand voice across thousands of creative variations.
  • Real-time personalization: Match each listener’s moment, mood, or location so every ad feels relevant.

Smarter Targeting That Reaches Every Listener

Personalization is powerful, and precision targeting takes it even further. As the retail season ramps up and consumers face endless messages, the real advantage lies in reaching the right people at exactly the right time with messages that feel natural and relevant.

Tools like contextual targeting make this possible by using non-personal, privacy-friendly signals like listening patterns and even music choice. This helps brands move beyond one-size-fits-all campaigns and deliver messages that feel timely, relatable, and personal.

Here are a few ways this can work:

  • Location targeting: Reach listeners nearby. A shopper walking past a mall might hear an ad for a weekend sale close by.
  • Weather targeting: Match creative to the forecast. A coffee brand can push hot drinks on a cold morning or iced options when the temperature climbs.
  • Multicultural targeting: Reflect diverse audiences. Build connections with growth audiences using bilingual ads or cultural messaging that resonates.
  • Contextual music targeting: Align ads with what people are listening to. A shopper streaming a holiday playlist or relaxing after work hears a message that fits the mood.

How Retailers Can Activate Audio Campaigns

For retailers, success during the shopping season depends on being present at the moments that influence buying decisions. Audio connects with listeners throughout their day in ways that feel natural and personal.

Here is how to make it work:

  • Plan for key retail moments: Launch campaigns early to build awareness before major sale events like Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Use audio to stay top of mind while other channels compete for visual space.
  • Keep creative fresh: Update messages based on timing, weather, or product trends. Highlight weekend deals, feature trending categories, and shift tone as the season evolves.
  • Reach nearby shoppers: Use location data to deliver local promotions and combine it with multicultural and contextual targeting for greater relevance.
  • Integrate across channels: Pair audio with display, social, or in-store messaging to strengthen recognition. Someone who hears a podcast ad is more likely to recall the product later while shopping.
  • Measure and refine: Track engagement, conversions, and brand lift, then use insights to optimize creative and targeting in real time.

Two days at DMEXCO 2025 in Cologne showed what the industry has been sensing for a while. Audio has become one of the most dynamic and culturally relevant parts of the media mix, and the energy in the halls and focus of the conversations made it clear that it now sits at the center of strategy.

For AdsWizz, it was a chance to present new innovations, highlight partnerships, and explore the future of audio with agencies, brands, and platforms.

Driving Real Personalization With Dynamic Creatives and Synthetic Voice

Frank Kretzschmar, Head of DACH/Nordics at AdsWizz

A highlight for me was presenting Dynamic Creatives with Synthetic Voice. This solution was designed to take the complexity out of personalization in audio. A single script can now be transformed into multiple natural-sounding versions in minutes, shaped by contextual signals like weather, time of day, location, music genre, or device type. 

Its real strength is accessibility. Marketers can generate voiceovers instantly, select from a range of vocal styles, and refine creative without costly or time-consuming studio sessions. Background tracks can be layered automatically, and previews tested before launch, ensuring every variation feels authentic and polished.

The audience reaction echoed what we are already hearing across the market. Personalization in audio has often felt out of reach, and being able to demonstrate a simpler path forward sparked real engagement. Many of the questions focused on how quickly campaigns could be adapted once live and how contextual triggers could work alongside existing targeting strategies.

A Fireside Chat With SoundCloud

Patricia Claper, Senior Manager, Ad Partnerships at SoundCloud, and Taeko Matamaru, Business Development Director, Demand at AdsWizz

AdsWizz hosted a fireside chat between Taeko Matamaru, Business Development Director of Demand at AdsWizz, and Patricia Claper, Senior Manager of Ad Partnerships at SoundCloud. Their conversation highlighted what makes SoundCloud unique: it’s both a home for creators and a community for fans, positioning it as a launchpad for emerging voices and cultural trends.

They discussed how brands can join this ecosystem in ways that feel natural to listeners. Promoted tracks let advertisers align their messaging with music discovery, turning ads into part of the journey rather than a disruption. A collaboration with Under Armour illustrated this approach, connecting the brand with audiences by amplifying new artists and fueling discovery.

The takeaway was clear: SoundCloud gives brands a role in culture creation, not just media placement. To succeed, advertisers must support artists and enhance the experience instead of interrupting it. Done well, these partnerships help brands build credibility with younger, trend-setting audiences.

Trends Shaping the Future of Audio

DMEXCO 2025 revealed shifts that are already reshaping the market. These are not distant signals but changes unfolding now. The brands that adapt quickly will define the next phase of audio. 

For me, three forces in particular are setting new expectations for audio advertising:

  • Programmatic audio is crossing the tipping point: Once a test channel, it is becoming the default buying model. Brands that delay building programmatic expertise will struggle to keep pace as efficiency and accountability become standard.
  • Authenticity is brand currency: Younger audiences, especially Gen Z, reward advertisers who respect listening culture and collaborate with creators. Inauthentic approaches erode trust quickly.
  • Personalization is now the baseline: Real-time adaptation to context, mood, or environment is no longer optional. Tools like Dynamic Creatives with Synthetic Voice are setting a new standard for relevance.

The Path Forward for Audio

Crystal Cameron, Senior Marketing Manager, Global Events & Sponsorships at AdsWizz, Frank Kretzschmar, Head of DACH/Nordics at AdsWizz, Patricia Claper, Senior Manager, Ad Partnerships at SoundCloud, Taeko Matamaru, Business Development Director, Demand at AdsWizz, and Aimi Knowling, Senior Manager, Sales Marketing at AdsWizz

DMEXCO 2025 left no doubt that audio is driving digital innovation. It is measurable, flexible, and creative, while still holding on to what makes it unique with its intimacy, authenticity, and emotional pull.

At AdsWizz, we are building the infrastructure that helps brands, creators, and audiences thrive together. The next chapter will be shaped by those ready to embrace authenticity, experiment with personalization, and lean into programmatic scale.

That’s where Dynamic Creatives with Synthetic Voice come in—AdsWizz’s latest innovation that’s redefining how brands create and scale audio ads in real time.

Crafting a hyper-personalized audio ad can be as easy as writing an email. No studio sessions. No voice talent scheduling. Just your script, a few clicks, and you’re live.

A Q&A with Graham James, Regional Director, APAC

Australia’s digital audio scene is booming—over 15 million people are tuning in weekly, and nearly half of households now have a smart speaker, according to Edison Research’s The Infinite Dial 2025 Australia. We sat down with Graham James, Regional Director, APAC at AdsWizz, to chat about what’s driving that growth and how brands can stop thinking of audio as just “radio with ads.”

Let’s start with your role. What does your job as Regional Director at AdsWizz involve?

My main focus is making sure advertisers and publishers across the region can tap into the full potential of our tech. That means helping publishers grow revenue, working with advertisers to craft smart campaigns, accessing the right publisher inventory type, and making sure we’re always moving forward on innovation.

Australia’s digital audio space, in particular, is growing incredibly fast—sometimes faster than what we see in the US in certain areas. My background is in content and solution engineering, so I’m always thinking about how to bridge the gap between what our tech can do and what our clients actually need in-market.

The latest Infinite Dial 2025 Australia report shows audio consumption is booming. What’s fueling that growth?

It comes down to how easy it’s become to listen. Smart speakers, voice assistants, they’ve made audio feel more natural. You don’t have to scroll or search. You just say what you want, and it plays.

But more than that, audio fits into parts of the day where other media can’t go. No one’s watching TikTok while jogging or cooking (well, they shouldn’t be). But they are listening. And now that most Australians have two or more connected audio devices, it’s just always there, becoming a part of the rhythm of daily life.

What challenges are advertisers facing as they enter audio, and how is AdsWizz helping them?

One of the biggest things we hear is: “How do I prove this worked?” Audio used to be seen as a brand-only play. You’d run a campaign and hope it made an impact, but tying it back to actual results was tricky.

That’s changed. With tools like AudioMatic and AudioServe, we’re giving our partners real transparency: Who heard the ad, where, and what they did next. And that feedback loop means we can keep improving performance mid-flight, not just afterward.

Creative is another area where brands sometimes get stuck. That’s where Dynamic Creatives come in. We can change music, voices, even the ad message, depending on things like time of day or whether it’s sunny outside. So instead of one generic ad, you’re running hundreds of context-aware versions, and it doesn’t require extra work from your team.

Podcasting is exploding. What’s driving brands to invest there?

People have really personal relationships with the shows they listen to. It’s not just background noise; listeners trust the host, and they spend hours with them every week. So when that host talks about a product, it doesn’t feel like an ad. It feels like a recommendation from a friend.

That’s powerful. And with dynamic ad insertion (DAI), we’ve been able to bring in real targeting and measurement without losing that personal feel. We can now update creative mid-campaign, reach specific demographics, and optimize based on performance.

And honestly, it’s more accessible than people think. You don’t have to buy ads on the biggest shows to see results. There are thousands of mid-sized or niche podcasts with highly engaged listeners. Through the AdsWizz Audio Marketplace, we make it easy to scale up brand growth.

With smart speakers and in-car systems growing, how is “context” changing how campaigns are built?

Context has become a big deal, and it’s not just about where someone is, but how they’re listening.

We can tell if someone’s using a speaker in their kitchen or car, and that shapes what kind of message makes sense. You don’t want to blast a loud ad on the “nursery” speaker or ask a driver to visit your website. But you might follow up with a display ad later when they’re on their phone.

Voice interaction changes the game, too. Instead of asking someone to click, you might say, “Just ask your device for more info.” That’s way more natural if they’re elbow-deep in pasta sauce or doing a workout.

What’s cool is that all of this can be done without invading privacy. We rely on first-party, privacy-safe data to keep things targeted but respectful, which, especially in APAC, is becoming non-negotiable.

What digital audio trends are you watching for the year ahead?

For starters, personalization is only going to get sharper. AI is making it faster and easier to serve someone the exact right message in the right moment.

We’re also seeing more brands thinking cross-device. Your customer might hear your ad on a smart speaker, get retargeted on mobile, and convert later on desktop. Tools like AudioPixel and Second Screen help us track that journey, so we can see what actually led to the sale.

And maybe this is more of a wish than a trend, but advertisers are over-juggling six platforms just to run one campaign. They want a single system that can handle planning, buying, optimizing, and reporting without having to stitch it all together. That’s where the industry is headed, and we’re building for that.

Do you have any final insights about audio you’d like to share with the audience?

If you’re still treating audio like it’s just background radio, you’re missing the real opportunity. It’s targeted. It’s measurable. It’s dynamic. And it’s where people are actually spending their time—without a screen in front of them.

This space is not just growing, it’s evolving. If you’re ready to create campaigns that not only reach people but truly resonate, we’d love to help. Explore our latest tools or connect with our APAC team for a chat.

Podcasting has gone mainstream. What started as a niche medium is now a global audio powerhouse, with over 500 million listeners and more than 4.5 million shows.

Although podcast audiences have grown significantly, monetization has not always kept up at the same pace. Many publishers continue to encounter challenges such as unsold inventory, underperforming campaigns, and less-than-optimal revenue streams.

In this guide, we’ll explore proven podcast monetization strategies and show how AdsWizz’s advanced adtech solutions can help publishers maximize their ad inventory and grow revenue faster.

Why Today’s Podcast Monetization Still Has Gaps

The podcast ad market is booming, but many publishers still experience unfilled ad slots and missed revenue opportunities. The root causes often include fragmented delivery systems and a lack of real-time forecasting and reporting.

To unlock full revenue potential, publishers need to evolve beyond static sales models and adopt smarter, data-driven podcast ad monetization tools.

Smarter Planning for Maximum Monetization

Effective monetization begins with accurate forecasting. AdsWizz’s advanced Inventory and campaign forecasting tools help publishers accurately predict opportunity availability by syncing with each show’s release schedule.

When episodes are delayed, canceled, or released, forecasts automatically update to reflect the latest publishing plan and listener trends.

Equipped with tailored forecasts based on a podcast’s unique release cadence and traffic trends, publishers can plan campaigns more effectively, allocate inventory with precision, and fully capitalize on their monetization potential.

At the campaign level, publishers can:

  • Forecast delivery for draft and active campaigns
  • Identify additional impressions to boost revenue
  • Simulate and apply optimized targeting and pacing
From Planning to Precision Targeting

Once inventory is forecasted with confidence, the next step is delivering it to the right audiences. AdsWizz offers a powerful suite of targeting solutions that help publishers increase relevance, reduce waste, and drive better campaign results.

  • Audience segmentation: Enables publishers to reach listeners based on detailed demographics, interests, and behaviors using precise segmentation tools.
  • Privacy-friendly demographic modeling: Through partners like NumberEight, publishers can target audiences by age or gender without relying on cookies or first-party data.
  • Contextual targeting: Allows ads to be served in the most relevant context by aligning with episode topics, listeners’ interests, or content affinity. This goes beyond basic genre or language classification. More than 60% of AdsWizz targeting dimensions are contextual, according to internal data, helping publishers improve relevance while maintaining listener trust.
  • Predictive Audiences: Leverages Comscore-powered personas to reach hundreds of audience segments based on real-world behaviors such as TV viewing, shopping intent, or automotive interest. AI-driven contextual matching places ads within episodes most relevant to each listener. This approach expands reach, improves discoverability, and drives stronger monetization across the catalog.
Predictive Pacing Improves Revenue Efficiency

Podcasts generate more inventory when a new episode is released, but that inventory declines over time. These fluctuations are hard to detect with standard pacing methods, often resulting in under or over-delivery.

To address this, predictive pacing uses real-time and historical listener data to continuously adjust campaign delivery. It aligns ad spend with actual listening behavior and ensures consistent impression delivery.

How Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI) and Dynamic Creatives Boost Podcast Revenue Year-Round

Optimized delivery is just one piece of the podcast monetization puzzle. To fully capitalize on every episode, tools like (DAI) and dynamic creatives enable scalable, personalized ad experiences. These technologies help publishers boost delivery, enhance listener relevance, and maximize revenue across their entire catalog.

(DAI) is a game-changer for monetizing both new and archived podcast episodes. Instead of permanently embedding ads, DAI inserts targeted creative at the time of download, keeping content fresh and revenue flowing.

Dynamic Creatives take personalization further by generating ad variations in real time. Messaging adjusts based on listener context, driving higher engagement and better results. 

For example, a listener in New York on a rainy morning might hear, “Don’t let the rain stop your run. Grab our waterproof sneakers, available now in NYC,” while someone in sunny Los Angeles hears, “Step into the sunshine with our lightweight running shoes, available now in LA.” These real-time adjustments make ads more relevant and boost listener response.

Automated Host-Read Ads Combine Personalization and Scale

Host-read ads are trusted, authentic, and consistently effective—often driving 25% more spend than standard formats, according to AdsWizz’s internal metrics. But managing these campaigns at scale can be difficult.

With automated host-read ads, publishers can produce and deliver campaigns across multiple shows with a single brief. Once the host records and the creative is approved, the campaign launches within minutes—complete with targeting, tracking, and real-time measurement. It’s the perfect blend of credibility and operational efficiency.

Actionable Steps to Improve Podcast Monetization

Ready to optimize your ad inventory and grow podcast revenue? Here’s what publishers can do right now:

  • Audit underperforming campaigns and refine their settings and targeting for optimal delivery
  • Leverage DAI, dynamic creatives, contextual targeting, and automation tools
  • Expand monetization beyond audio to social platforms and smart devices
  • Partner with an adtech provider that offers end-to-end monetization solutions

With AdsWizz, you can unlock the full potential of your podcast business. From smarter targeting to real-time forecasting, our platform is designed to help publishers scale their revenue and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving industry.

Audio advertising is more powerful than ever. 

Since the early days of radio, audio has enabled brands to connect with audiences in a cost-effective and high-impact way. Today, that impact is growing quickly. According to The Infinite Dial 2025 by Edison Research, 79% of Americans aged 12 and older, an estimated 228 million people, now listen to online audio every month.

But just because audio is accessible does not mean it is simple. Brands still have a lot to figure out:

  • Where is our audience?
  • Are they into music, podcasts, or live radio?
  • Which shows and genres do they follow?
  • What platforms reach them best?
  • Can we produce creative that cuts through the noise?
  • How do we track and support the campaign across the funnel?

The good news is that today’s tools make this process easier and more effective. Thanks to automation and personalization, businesses of all sizes can now build smarter audio campaigns more efficiently. If you are ready to drive results and scale your brand, here is how to transform your audio advertising strategy.

Why Automation Is a Game-Changer for Audio Ads

Privacy laws are changing quickly, and digital platforms continue to evolve. For many brands—especially small and mid-sized businesses—keeping up can feel overwhelming.

Automation does more than help marketers just stay ahead. It gives them the ability to target specific audiences using secure, privacy-compliant data. Just as importantly, it simplifies and speeds up campaign execution.

By using anonymized first-party data and predictive audience modeling, automation delivers messages directly to the right people. No waste. No guesswork. Just smarter ad spend and better listener experiences.

Innovative Audio Adtech: Speed Meets Precision

Modern audio adtech takes this a step further by enabling real-time adjustments based on listener behavior. As audiences engage with content, automated tools analyze live data and serve the most relevant version of each ad. Every impression becomes more effective, helping you reach the right listener at the right moment.

Real-World Wins With Synthetic Voice Ads

Here is where Synthetic Voice Ads make a big impact. This technology lets you update your audio creative in minutes instead of days. No studio time, no rescheduling, and no delays. You stay agile and responsive.

Let’s say you are promoting an event, but your venue is not confirmed yet. A week later, the weather forces you to relocate. In the past, you would need to re-record your voiceover. That means extra time and cost.

With Synthetic Voice Ads, you can update details instantly and keep your campaign live. This flexibility matters for local businesses, too. A sports bar can promote watch parties before a playoff game, then switch to a championship celebration ad in minutes. Synthetic Voice Ads make it possible to react in real time without missing a beat.

Optimization That Adapts to the Moment

Reaching your ideal listener isn’t just about age or interests—it’s about the moment.

AudioMatic DSP, AdsWizz’s demand-side solution, uses real-time contextual signals such as time of day, device type, and content category to serve ads when listeners are most engaged. Whether someone is commuting, working out, or relaxing at home, AudioMatic ensures your message fits the moment.

Now, paired with Dynamic ad insertion (DAI), ads can be seamlessly delivered into audio content streams in real time. This makes sure each impression is relevant, timely, and aligned with listener behavior.

Personalization That Drives Engagement

Did you know that 70% of Americans age 12 and older have listened to a podcast? That kind of scale creates huge opportunities for meaningful, personalized engagement.

With AdsWizz’s dynamic creatives, brands can automatically tailor ads based on listener context—such as location, weather, device, or content type. A single creative can adjust to fit a listener in New York on a rainy afternoon or someone in Phoenix on a sunny morning.

But personalization alone is not enough. You also need to measure what is working and respond in real time. When your audio ad reflects someone’s real-world experience, it creates a moment of relevance.

That is where AudioPixel comes in. It connects ad impressions to real listener actions like website visits and purchases. This closed-loop attribution helps you continuously improve both your creative and your media strategy based on actual outcomes.
