OnFARM - an opportunity for your business to get involved with the rural podcast.

Get your brand a podcast...without the hassle of making one

If you have a brand or business you want to promote, you've likely already considered podcasting.

You might have dismissed it because it sounds too hard, or you don't have the time or technical knowledge.

Here's the thing. You don't actually have to do any of the hard work.

Your business or brand can support the vision and creativity of others by lending its name and financial backing to their podcast.

The benefits to you? They can be enormous and long-lived.

• Podcast listeners are famously loyal; they are part of that podcast's community or following.
• If their subject focus or niche dovetails with your brand, you have a direct route into the ears of the people most likely to be interested in what you do.
• You can get time in each episode to tell those listeners about your offer. (Call this an advert if you like, but - done skillfully - it is no more obtrusive than a quiet acknowledgement from the programme's trusted host.)
• Moreover, their audience will be kindly disposed to you because your brand - and your money - means they get to keep their favourite podcast.

Case study: OnFARM podcast

Scene & Herd PR and Marketing was created to promote rural and food and drink businesses and help them thrive. At the start of 2020, we launched OnFARM, the rural podcast, because we believe that the wonderful stories within Scotland’s countryside need a positive platform from which to be told and we want to do all we can to promote farming, agri-food and all rural enterprise.  We want to give rural areas, and people, a stronger voice and a new, modern, platform from which to share their inspiring stories.
