AdsWizz’s enhanced Second Screen Retargeting goes beyond simply delivering ads—it creates engaging, influential ad experiences. Combining the immersive power of audio ads with the eye-catching appeal of display ads, this cutting-edge solution extends brand reach, makes messages memorable, and delivers tangible, measurable outcomes.

Why Second Screen Retargeting is a Big Deal

Imagine this: A listener hears a captivating audio ad while streaming a favorite playlist. Minutes later, they see a visually striking display ad reinforcing that same message while scrolling through their favorite app. That’s the beauty of second screen retargeting—it meets an audience where they are, across devices and platforms, keeping brand voice top-of-mind.

With AdsWizz’s enhanced solution, you can:

• Double the impact by creating a one-two punch of audio and display ads.
• Leave a lasting impression through reinforced messaging across screens.
• Drive action with personalized, precise retargeting that inspires clicks and conversions.

How Does It Work? Precision Meets Power

We get it—marketing isn’t one-size-fits-all. That’s why our second-screen retargeting provides options to tailor campaigns to advertiser goals. Whether aiming for precision or scale, we’ve got it covered.

• Same device delivery: Keep it personal by targeting users directly on the device where they first heard an audio ad. It’s perfect for maximizing recall.
• Same household delivery: Expand reach by delivering follow-up ads across devices in the same household. It’s a brilliant way to engage a broader audience while staying relevant.

Simplify. Amplify. Protect.

Managing audio with display campaigns has never been easier, or more effective. Here’s how we ensure campaigns shine:

• All-in-one management: Forget juggling multiple platforms. With AdsWizz, everything happens in one place—your single source of truth for campaign management and reporting.
• Actionable insights: Don’t just run campaigns—optimize them. Our unified reporting shows what’s working (and what’s not) so it can be tweaked and adjusted for even better results.
• Safety first: We take brand safety seriously. Our platform blocks ads from appearing in unsafe environments with a vetted list of over tens of thousands of domains. Brand integrity is always protected.

Why Audio Campaigns Deserve This Boost 

Retargeting isn’t just a nice-to-have anymore—it’s essential. Attention spans are shorter than ever, and second-screen retargeting ensures ad messages cut through the clutter.

Still need convincing? Consider this:

• Campaigns using second-screen retargeting have quadrupled the impact of display-only ads. 
• You’ll get a 360° view of performance metrics, from click-through rates to real-time delivery stats.
• It’s a win-win for marketers and customers alike—ads are seen, heard, and remembered.

What Does Enhanced Second Screen Retargeting Mean for You?

Say goodbye to forgettable campaigns. Enhanced second-screen retargeting transforms passive listeners into engaged buyers, making every ad dollar count and delivering results that can be measured. Ready to take your campaigns to the next level? Your audience is listening, and now they’ll be watching, too.

Key Insights from this Episode

Privacy by Design: Redefining Audience Engagement

With growing privacy regulations, the industry faces an urgent need for alternative ways to understand audiences. Emma explained that NumberEight’s approach is rooted in “privacy by design,” shifting from traditional identifiers (IDs) to cohort-level targeting that respects user anonymity. This strategy is integrated across all of NumberEight’s solutions, including affinity audiences, which provides demographic data at scale for podcasting; advanced behavioral, which uses mobile sensory information to create a dynamic picture of user preferences and habits; and contextual data, which helps understand the digital environment users are in.

“We’re moving away from one-to-one identifiers and adopting a more fluid approach to audience engagement,” Emma shared, underscoring the need for scalable, privacy-friendly methods that remain flexible even as regulatory landscapes evolve.

Live Moments: Real-Time Targeting Based on User Behaviors

Emma introduced the idea of live moments—data points representing what users do in real-time, whether they’re commuting, relaxing at home, or working out. By analyzing these signals, advertisers can deliver more relevant, timely ads that align with users’ current needs and state of mind, creating what she describes as “right message, right moment” advertising.

This approach is particularly potent in digital audio and podcasting, where listeners are often in environments conducive to focused engagement. For example, automotive brands have leveraged in-vehicle life moments to reach users while they’re on the road, resonating with listeners during moments of receptivity.

A Privacy-First Future is Possible—But There’s Work to Do

As Emma noted, the conversation around privacy-centric advertising is well underway, where leading marketers and technologists converge. However, widespread adoption is still in its early stages, and brands are just beginning to feel comfortable making the shift.

One major barrier is the FOMU effect Emma describes—not the typical fear of missing out, but the “fear of messing up”. With so much at stake, brands are hesitant to risk experimenting with unproven techniques, even though the alternative is missing out on innovative privacy-first solutions. Emma suggests that rather than investing in a single approach, brands should diversify their solutions and test various models to reduce reliance on outdated identifiers.

Why Podcasts Are Digital’s ‘Next Big Thing’ in Ad Spend

Despite the rapid growth in podcast consumption, ad spending in this format has not yet matched its rising listenership. However, podcasts are on the brink of revolutionizing ad spend, especially as they adopt more standardization in data availability, activation, and reporting. Emma noted that once podcasts can offer a similar ease of activation as other digital media, the gap between audience growth and ad spend will likely close.

Combining Data and Storytelling to Create Deeper Connections

Beyond the technical aspects of data targeting, Emma emphasizes the importance of storytelling. At NumberEight, the team is constantly looking for ways to harness behavioral, affinity, and contextual data to tell stories that resonate with audiences on a human level. By leveraging deterministic data—data that is live, accurate, and reflective of real-world behavior—advertisers can create authentic connections that evolve with the listener’s journey.

“Data is an art,” Emma reflected, underscoring the value of approaching data not just as a series of points, but as elements of a broader narrative that speaks directly to each user’s unique experiences and preferences.

Building a Multi-Channel, Diversified Data Strategy

Emma recommends that advertisers move away from relying on any single solution, advocating instead for a multi-channel approach that integrates ID-based and ID-less data sources. By building a waterfall structure where various data types work together, brands can future-proof their advertising strategies against potential changes in data availability or regulatory compliance. This approach allows brands to adapt to fluctuations, ensuring that as some data types phase out or become restricted, others can fill the gap. 

Cross-Channel Learning and Behavioral Targeting

Emma outlined her vision for NumberEight’s ongoing work in cross-channel learning, where insights from one platform—like gaming or streaming—are applied to enhance targeting on another, such as digital audio. This cross-pollination of data insights enables more refined and effective targeting, helping advertisers get the most out of their ad spend by sharing new insights across all their channels. In a market where media consumption is increasingly diverse, leveraging data across platforms is essential for advertisers to reach audiences wherever they may be listening, watching, or engaging.

A Path Forward with Privacy and Performance in Harmony

The journey toward a more privacy-friendly future in digital audio is full of opportunity but requires bold innovation and adaptability. By embracing ID-less targeting, weaving in compelling storytelling, and harnessing cross-channel insights, brands can build genuine connections—without compromising user trust. The time to act is now because the brands that dare to innovate will lead the way.

This starts with a close evaluation of current audio advertising efforts. Advertisers can unlock new potential by pinpointing areas for improvement and discovering how audio adtech can seamlessly integrate with their broader marketing strategies. This means taking control of the adtech stack—media strategy, ad operations, and optimization—ensuring both internal and external teams work together to achieve the best results possible.

Benefits of Enhances Adtech Tools

To make the most of audio adtech, advertisers need to understand some core benefits.

Oversight and Control for Enhanced Agility and Responsiveness

Embracing cutting-edge adtech tools gives advertisers the power to take full control of their audio campaigns. Not only can they align with their strategic goals, but they also gain the agility to make quick adjustments and react when needed. This results in messaging that’s not only timely and relevant but also helps maintain a competitive edge and the ability to capitalize on new opportunities as they arise.

Comprehensive Historical Data Retention

Audio ad techs’ access to historical data is vital for long-term strategy and analysis, providing insights into the effectiveness of past campaigns. Advertisers can use this data to refine targeting, messaging, and creative elements, optimizing future efforts based on proven success.

Cost Savings and Resource Allocation

Audio adtech tools help optimize adspend and reduce wasted resources, allowing advertisers to allocate more budget toward critical areas. This guarantees a more effective use of every dollar and enables advertisers to reinvest savings into growth-oriented initiatives.

Adopting State-of-the-Art Audio Adtech 

As advertisers recognize the benefits of audio adtech, the next step is to invest in the right tools. Here are some key technologies to consider.

Advanced Targeting

Platforms like AudioMatic DSP enable precise audience targeting based on factors such as context, device type, location, demographics, and behavior, ensuring messages reach the right audience at the right time—essential in today’s privacy-conscious landscape. By tailoring ads, advertisers can cut through the noise and create more meaningful interactions with listeners.

Real-Time Data Utilization

Tools such as Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI) allow advertisers to place ads dynamically as listeners stream content, delivering timely and contextually relevant messaging. This adaptability benefits marketers, podcast producers, and streaming publishers by enhancing audience engagement and boosting revenue.

Attribution Tools and Real-time Reporting

Attribution tools help link listeners to specific actions, such as website visits or app downloads, offering real-time reporting for audio-first campaigns. Interactive ad formats like ShakeMe boost engagement by allowing listeners to take actions like downloading coupons or making calls with a simple shake of their phone. Second Screen Retargeting takes this further by combining audio and visual ads to retarget listeners across platforms, boosting brand awareness and driving user actions.

Take Your First Step Through the Front Door

Today’s audio advertising capabilities give advertisers the power and agility to create impactful campaigns that resonate with audiences. With the right adtech, advertisers can precisely target audiences, respond quickly to trends, and optimize their messaging—all while cutting costs and driving innovation. By strategically investing in audio adtech, advertisers not only stay ahead of the competition but also connect with their audiences in more meaningful and engaging ways.

This surge in popularity presents a golden opportunity for advertisers, yet it also brings forth new challenges in accurately analyzing campaigns. As the landscape evolves, the need for more sophisticated signals to transact and measure podcast advertising becomes increasingly critical.

At AdsWizz, we understand the evolving needs of advertisers in the podcast space. To address these needs and enable more precise targeting and measurement of podcast ads, we are passing GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) and RSS Feed information to DSPs (Demand-Side Platforms) and vendors.

Understanding GUIDs and RSS Feeds

A GUID is a unique alphanumeric string assigned by the hosting CMS (Content Management System) to each podcast episode. It ensures that each episode is distinctly identified, preventing duplication and facilitating reliable tracking and referencing across various platforms and directories. GUIDs remain static even if there are changes in the episode’s metadata or the hosting CMS.

An RSS feed is a specially formatted XML file that contains comprehensive information about podcast episodes. It includes details such as the podcast title, description, author, episode title, publication date, duration, and the URL where the audio file is hosted. RSS feeds are essential for distributing podcast episodes to various directories and platforms, ensuring that listeners can easily access new content.

Key Areas of Focus 

Enhanced Targeting and Addressability

By integrating GUIDs, each podcast episode can be uniquely and consistently identified across different platforms and CMSs, which prevents duplication and ensures precise tracking. With enhanced data signals such as episode name, show name, and genre, advertisers can also reach their target audiences more effectively.

Improved Advertiser Confidence and Investment

Advertisers gain complete visibility into where their ads are delivered, identifying which episodes, shows, and genres perform best and understanding the behaviors they drive. This transparency empowers advertisers to make informed decisions, significantly boosting their confidence in programmatic podcasting. Enhanced content signals ensure ads are placed in suitable contexts, safeguarding brand equity.

Increased Revenue Opportunities

The introduction of podcast-rich data signals encourages advertisers who were previously hesitant to invest in signal-light traffic to allocate larger budgets to podcasting, unlocking significant demand. By incorporating more data into bid requests, the value of these ad opportunities increases, potentially leading to more revenue.

Seamless Integration and Consistency

GUIDs remain static even when podcasters change their CMS or update episode metadata, ensuring reliability in episode identification. The integration process involves ingesting and storing GUIDs/RSS feeds from various sources, such as Simplecast/VAST/RTB integrations, and seamlessly passing this information to DSPs. This ensures consistent and reliable data transmission, maintaining the integrity of the process.

What is Custom Audiences?

With Custom Audiences, advertisers can retarget listeners who have shown an interest in their product, making them more likely to convert. This advanced capability allows brands to create more sophisticated campaigns that guide listeners from awareness to action, such as making a purchase or requesting a quote. 

Creating robust stories delivered sequentially over days or weeks or tailoring listening experiences based on interaction types, such as a website visit or a wishlist, helps advertisers build stronger relationships with audiences and meet listeners exactly where they are on their conversion journey.

Do you worry about meeting business objectives and boosting campaign efficiency? Worry no more! Custom Audiences helps deliver ads to the most engaged audience or test the best creative by splitting the same listener base. This results in higher conversion rates, reduced wasted ad spend, streamlined management operations, and minimal maintenance.

Key Benefits

Boost Campaign Efficiency

Create campaigns that align with listeners’ behaviors and retarget those who have already shown interest in a brand – all within a streamlined flow. With both AudioServe and AudioMatic, Custom Audience targeting ensures ads reach the right audience at the right time.

Strengthen Relationships with Audiences 

Offer a personalized listening experience tailored to previous interactions, building stronger connections with audiences. Whether through AudioServe’s detailed targeting options or AudioMatic’s sophisticated audience segmentation, robust experiences can be crafted to resonate deeply with listeners​​​.

Maximize ROI 

Delivering ads to a highly applicable audience reduces ad spend waste and boosts conversion rates. AudioServe and AudioMatic offer tools to measure and optimize campaigns, ensuring every ad dollar is well spent.

How Custom Audiences Works

Creating and growing an audience base has never been easier. New website visitors who perform custom AudioPixel actions or consented listeners of one or multiple ads from campaigns can be collected all in one place.

Additionally, at the flick of a switch, Custom Audiences can be populated with listeners of all future ads belonging to an advertiser without having to manually include each new ad in the setup. This ensures effortless maintenance of an always up-to-date audience base, complemented by the membership duration setting for how long each listener remains in the custom audience.

Looking Ahead

AdsWizz attribution tools are designed to close the loop on audio measurement, and Custom Audiences are the latest (but not the last) tool we’re adding to our stack. With this solution, the full potential of retargeting campaigns is unlocked, driving engagement, efficiency, and conversions like never before.

Programmatic Guaranteed offers more impactful tools tailored for optimal performance than other types of programmatic deals that involve varying levels of uncertainty – such as OpenRTB auctions with numerous bidders or preferred deals with non-guaranteed volumes. With fixed pricing and guaranteed volumes, this type of auction provides advertisers and publishers with a level of certainty and control not found in other programmatic transactions.

A One-Stop-Shop for Digital Audio Advertising

Although both Preferred Deals and Programmatic Guaranteed represent direct transactions between buyers and publishers, the latter ensures that a guaranteed number of impressions are sold at a fixed price.

What is Episode Scheduling and Targeting?

Episode Scheduling and Targeting revolutionizes advertising by enabling pre-scheduling ads in podcast episodes before they’re published. It streamlines workflows across different platforms and merges cutting-edge automatic episode generation with high-level forecasting and targeting abilities. 

The bottom line: Episode Scheduling and Targeting allows publishers to plan, forecast, target, and sell ads efficiently in future episodes, which creates new revenue streams and boosts each episode’s effectiveness and value.

How Episode Scheduling and Targeting Simplifies Inventory Management

This new feature dramatically simplifies inventory management by leveraging historical data for precise forecasts, ensuring campaigns can be booked without the risk of overselling or under-delivering. Once an episode is scheduled, it’s immediately available for ad campaigns across AdsWizz’s platforms. The feature uses unique episode IDs for targeting, ensuring ads are delivered to the correct episode, even if its release date changes.

Episode Scheduling and Targeting in Action

Imagine a weekly podcast series focused on sustainable living. The publishers of this series decided to leverage the Episode Scheduling and Targeting feature to use in a client’s advertising campaign for an upcoming series of episodes about urban gardening.

Scheduling Episodes and Attracting Advertisers

The team schedules the episodes two months before the series launch, documenting the topics and expected release dates. These future episodes are immediately shared with AdsWizz’s platforms, where potential advertisers can view if the planned content offers enough inventory to reach their advertising objectives.

Targeted Ad Booking

Seeing the alignment with its target market, a gardening tools company decides to book ad slots for the entire series. Utilizing the detailed forecasts provided by the system, they confidently book their campaign, knowing the ads will reach an engaged and relevant audience.

Flexible Ad Scheduling Ensures Uninterrupted Revenue

As the release dates approach, one episode must be delayed by 4 days due to unforeseen circumstances. However, the scheduled ads automatically adjust to the new release date thanks to the Episode Scheduling and Targeting system. The gardening tools company’s ads still hit their mark, appearing in the designated episode upon its release, ensuring the podcast’s revenue stream is unaffected by the schedule change.

Unlock New Revenue Opportunities

Episode Scheduling and Targeting is a significant advancement in podcast advertising, opening new revenue opportunities for publishers and podcasters. By automating and refining the ad delivery process, this feature improves monetization efficiency and contributes to a more predictable and financially stable ecosystem.
