   The Business of Kyle: When Do Brands Start Calling?

   Kyle Sandilands has launched his subscription platform. The next question is obvious: when do the advertisers arrive? Head of data and media at Spinach Advertising (https://spinach.com.au/) Ben Willee joins us to explore what agencies are really looking for, how valuable paying subscribers are compared to traditional radio audiences, and why first-party customer data has become the new currency of media. From founding partners and live events to merchandise, brand-funded content and creator commerce, we look at the commercial opportunities—and the challenges—waiting for Kyle as he attempts to build Australia's biggest direct-to-consumer media business. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.
