Futuri’s AI-Driven Content, Audience, and Revenue Growth Technology Sees Record Usage Growth in 2020

December 27, 2020/0 Comments/in Press Release /by Mia Cross

Solutions like TopLine, POST, and TopicPulse are being used more than ever amid seismic shifts for content creators and broadcasters.

CLEVELAND, December 14, 2020 — In a year of unprecedented change in the ways broadcasters do business and audiences consume content, usage of Futuri’s AI-driven audience engagement and sales intelligence technology hit record highs. Analysis of 2020 product usage data proves that content creators and broadcasters are more reliant than ever on technology across all aspects of their business:

TopicPulse, Futuri’s AI-powered story discovery, show prep, and social content system, has seen 135,688,133 minutes — that’s more than 94,000 days — of usage by partners in 2020. The 61% growth spike in user sessions TopicPulse saw earlier this year when disruptions began has sustained throughout the year as broadcasters look for new ways to differentiate their brands by discovering and creating content that engages their specific target audiences.

POST, Futuri’s podcasting system, has now published podcasts with over ONE BILLION plays, enabling content creators and broadcasters to grow audience and revenue on multiple platforms. Exclusive POST features specifically designed to make the podcasting process fast, easy, and efficient for broadcasters have been key in driving this growth.

TopLine, Futuri’s revolutionary sales intelligence system that pairs cutting-edge AI with expert human analysis, has helped deliver $130 million in advertising/sponsorship revenue for its partners in 2020. This represents TopLine’s highest revenue number ever, despite the fact that this has been an unquestionably tough revenue year for media sales executives.

“This year, there have been seismic shifts in the way broadcasters and publishers create, produce, distribute, and monetize content, and there is no sign that we’re going back to the old way of doing things,” said Futuri CEO Daniel Anstandig. “The massive growth in usage of Futuri’s AI-driven solutions shows that we’re uniquely capable of helping media companies and content creators grow audience and revenue now and in the ‘next normal.’”

The 5 Ways You’re Missing Out Without A Station Mobile App

August 25, 2020/0 Comments/in Resources /by

By Scott Lindy, Futuri Partner Success Team

We’re all aware of the massive increase in the percentage of people working from their homes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. What you may have missed, is the recent Nielsen data that shows that adult consumers aged 18+ streaming audio on smartphones increased from 50% every week in Q1 of 2019 to 64% in Q2 of 2020. Of course, that data counts podcasting as well as broadcast radio.

What that data doesn’t take into account is radio stations without their own mobile app. We know that a listener can get to your website via mobile phone or web browser to stream your station, and your stream might be available on an aggregator. But hey, if they’re willing to work that hard to hear your content on their mobile phone, why not give them that and more with a station-branded mobile app?

Without a station mobile app, here’s just some of what you’re missing besides the opportunity to get your audio streaming into the hands of listeners.

Getting Your Brand Into Connected Cars
Yeah, it’s a brave new world created by Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Although many consumers are unfamiliar with how a mobile app works in a connected car, if they have one, user adoption has started. The race is on! Your listeners’ acceptance and growth of these platforms will only grow and move faster in the coming months and years. If your mobile app can’t get your brand and content onto connected car screens right now, be prepared to play catch up for a long time. Your station’s image grows when you’re able to promote your app’s availability for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto — don’t forget about the real estate your brand gets on the connected dash when you have your own app! — but it’s also critical to remember that this is a new tech space for users. Hold their hand and make it easy for them to launch your app in their car. Creating fun videos and graphics with simple to follow instructions that listeners can easily find on your app is a must. Can your app do that? It should.

Mobile Access to On-Demand Audio and Podcasts
Recent industry studies show that nearly two-thirds of all on-demand audio is listened to on a mobile device. That means radio personalities who regularly create podcasts could possibly achieve their full potential of reach and growth by making their episodes available on major platforms like Apple Podcasts or Spotify but at what cost to your station’s brand? Your station’s mobile app should be the single most promoted destination and point of access for the on-demand audio you generate. In this case, no station app equals diminishing brand awareness amongst podcast listeners. A trend difficult to reverse.

Mobile Data!
Usage of mobile devices is far different and usually more frequent than desktop and laptop computers. Tracking your users most frequently used features in your app allows you to shape your strategy for how you’ll generate and promote in-app content and provide data to clients for premium advertising spaces. Tracking everything from pre-roll video views, notification click-throughs and contest entries to on-demand plays, custom features and exclusive ‘in-app only’ content is just the beginning of understanding what your station’s fans like about your app and how you can get yours in front of a bigger audience with the right message.

Generating Revenue
You’re giving up revenue streams that continue to grow at a record pace by not offering mobile streaming audio and video pre-roll. With a mobile app, you can easily display advertising within your apps’ most frequented pages and features, and you can sell naming rights to different sections, and/or the app itself. Mobile advertising assets for a client can also include on-air mentions, website presence, and social media posts. But wait, there’s more! Think of the advertising opportunities made possible within app-exclusive content like exclusive on-demand audio, push notifications, weather alerts, app only contesting, and in-app alerts. Without a mobile app, your station leaves significant listener engagement opportunities on the table and the revenue that goes with it. Bonus: you keep 100% of the revenue you generate.

Going Beyond Your Music Stream With Cool App Features
If there’s anything we can all relate to, it’s those three or four apps we find ourselves using more than the others. When your radio station has a mobile app, you have the opportunity to build a digital bridge that stretches the palm of your fan’s hands to the personalities and music they love on your station. There’s a growing number of things you can only do with a mobile app to build connections with your fans. Features like Futuri Mobile’s Open Mic, which lets users record and share their voices on the air. In-app Flash Contesting from Futuri Mobile was created just for mobile users — say goodbye to caller 9 contests, which are a terrible experience for everyone except caller 9! Push notifications that speak to the targeted content you know your listeners want like weather and traffic alerts, new music about to play on the air, exclusive interviews only available (or available first) in the app. Whatever your listeners love the most about your station can become bigger and more personal to your fans when you use mobile app features in ways only your brand’s creative team can dream up.

No station app means diminishing brand awareness among podcast listeners — and that’s a trend difficult to reverse. Get started now, with Futuri Mobile, by filling out the form below.

It’s Go Time for Podcasting

August 4, 2020/0 Comments/in Resources /by Gale Parmelee

By Gale Parmelee, Futuri Partner Success Team

You likely started off 2020 with much optimism both personally and professionally.  I don’t think any of us planned to be in the midst of a global pandemic by the second quarter but nonetheless that’s what happened and here we are.  COVID-19 disrupted everything from the toilet paper supply chain thanks to “panic buying” to how people consumed media on a daily basis.  But with every challenge, there is opportunity!

Long before the Coronavirus was a household name, the term podcasting had already cemented its place in modern media consumption.  According to the Infinite Dial 2020 study from Edison Research and Triton, an estimated 212 million people 12+ were clearly familiar with the term podcasting and an estimated 155 million people 12+ had actually listened to podcast content.  Then the quarantine and lockdown orders hit.  What happened next?  Share of Ear data shows us that podcasting’s share of listening jumped 26% from first-quarter reports.  At the same time, there’s no question that COVID-19 disrupted the listening habits of traditional AM/FM radio across the country.  Some stations benefited tremendously from this shift while others found themselves in uncharted waters.  

The big takeaway is this, there’s never been a more perfect time to take the on-air content you already produce daily and instantly turn it into “on-demand” listening to meet the needs of your audience.  We’ve seen many radio stations in markets of all sizes across the country adjust their dayparts to accommodate new listening habits brought about by the pandemic, like working from home and no longer commuting in the car, being laid off or not shuttling kids to school or daycare, just to name a few.  I’ve had several air talent and programmers over the past few months share stories of listeners who would call in or message them saying things like “I miss hearing you guys in the morning” or siting a specific benchmark they loved to listen to but because their life changed they were not tuning in at the same time anymore and missing their favorite segments.  That’s a great example of how “on-demand” or “podcasting” can be your best friend right now and in the future! 

Let’s look at a morning show for example.  Everyone has those strong benchmarks that speak to appointment listening.  You put in many hours of prep, and in some cases production, each week to make those moments stand out on the air.  Then 7:20 am comes, you knock it out of the park in two and a half minutes, and then it’s all over.  Gone.  But does it have to be?  The good news is no!  Grab that audio and repackage it into a podcast.  Two things immediately happen that will impact your ratings and digital numbers. 

One, for PPM markets, Nielsen will give your station credit for PPM encoded timeshifted listening over the next 24 hours.  Not a PPM market?  There’s still a strong reason to share your content in podcast form, brand recall.  For diary markets that rely on listeners writing down your brand, podcast, and on-demand content aid in the recall of your radio station. 

Two, digital growth.  Pushing those full segments to your website and highlighting the best snippets from those segments on your social media channels, will extend your brand and garner more clicks from your station’s fan base.  In the vein of extending your brand, the current situation we’re in has also opened the door of opportunity when it comes to custom podcasts beyond what you’ve done over the air.  If you’re a news station, you could create a special in-depth podcast series on business recovery as we slowly emerge from the pandemic.  Music stations could help local musicians and venues who have been hit hard by the lack of live performances and miss their audiences by creating music podcasts that highlight a different artist each week.  This could be a combination of live performance/interview segment. 

Matter of fact, if you use a system like Futuri’s POST, you’ll have the ability to add a video component to that as well that will shine when it hits your social channels and website.  Talk about bringing together your station’s fanbase with that of the local/regional music scene!   Of course, in addition to the audience engagement you get from these efforts, there is a monetary component your GSM or digital sales team will love.  

We’ve all become accustomed to the phrase “the new normal.”  It doesn’t have to be a negative term when it comes to radio and overall media in general.  You can turn that into an opportunity today!  Keep in mind too that Smart Speakers have essentially placed “radios” back into homes that have not had actual radios for years, hitting a new record high in share, increasing 40%.  The best part is, they are not only perfect for streaming, but for listening to podcasts as well.  I recently heard an interview with a restaurant owner who said: “forget thinking out of the box, it’s time for a whole new box!”  Like broadcasting, the hospitality industry has been faced with big challenges since March.  This particular restaurateur was spending less time on the “doom and gloom” angle and more time on what opportunities have presented themselves for his business.  Perhaps we should do the same?  Toss out that old box, and start fresh.  Pay attention to our consumers, where are they?  What do they crave?  How have their lives changed and how can we deliver content to them on their own schedule?  I think it’s safe to say that we are never going back to the normal we knew in January 2020.  So let’s get excited, blaze new trails, adapt to change, and continue to enhance the lives of millions that are informed, entertained, laugh, and cry with us every day.  What segment did you do on the air today that will become a podcast right now?  It all starts with one.  Deliver awesome, on-demand content that is ready to be enjoyed when your fans are ready to enjoy it, with Futuri. They’ll thank you for it.

3 ways radio brands can build audience and revenue with podcasting

3 Ways Radio Brands Can Build Audience and Revenue with Podcasting 

April 27, 2020/in Industry News, Partner Success Stories /by Lynn

We all know the stats: audio consumption has never been higher, and that makes it even more critical for radio brands to have a strong podcasting strategy. The popularity of podcasts, both original podcasts and your time-shifted key content being made available on-demand, continues to grow—particularly as listeners and creators find themselves stuck at home in quarantine. Using podcasts and audiograms are an excellent way for radio brands to recycle their brand across multiple platforms (especially social) to build brand audience and loyalty, and keep your fans engaged 24/7.

But as we also all know, efforts that don’t drive real audience and revenue growth can sometimes turn a high priority into a nice to have. Fortunately, Futuri Media has a suite of tools that make it easy to podcast with purpose. 

1. Schedule or Work from ANYWHERE.

The entire world is adjusting to our new need for more work-at-home (and in some cases, broadcast-from-home) options, which can be challenging for radio stations that are used to creating and scheduling all of their content in-studio.

But, thanks to Futuri’s POST, your station can have a single system solution to manage and publish original podcasts from wherever you want. If you’re struggling with bandwidth or staffing reductions, POST will save you time, it’s work-at-home-friendly, and it gives you the flexibility your station needs right now. POST lets you easily publish and schedule publishing content without neglecting your advertisers or leaving your distribution channels asleep at the wheel. 

Speaking of being asleep, publishing content around the clock to stay top of mind with your audience doesn’t mean you actually have to work around the clock. Especially if you find yourself performing as the one-man-content-creation-band with your stations, be sure to lean on the POST Episode Scheduler function, which can help you manage the flow and content delivery to your social platforms. POST also makes it simple to create a video file of your podcast or export it to your station website, RSS feed, social accounts, or wherever else you need it. 

Keep publishing that content consistently and you’re in a great position to take advantage of the growth in audio consumption driven by adults working from home. Here’s an overview from Futuri’s TopLine, which uses data-rich insights to help sales professionals articulate the unique value of their audience to advertisers. 

 

  

2. Become the Next Great At-Home Content Creator.

One of the most exciting aspects of the current podcast boom is how many content-creation opportunities it opens up BEYOND the actual podcast itself.

Think of the creators who are killing it right now when it comes to connecting with their fans. They’re creating original podcasts, videos, and even whole shows from the comfort of their own home. Creating a plan that pairs POST, with its video creation capabilities, with live platforms like Instagram Live allows your entire team to do the exact same thing.

And we’re not just talking about publishing videos of your talent recording their shows. Does your team have talents that could inspire content to engage audiences that are working from home and/or sheltering in place? Maybe they’re amazing at cooking or know everything about wine, the golden age of a sports team with an upcoming anniversary, or music? (Speaking of which, a recent Futuri / University of Florida study of country radio listeners who have listened to a podcast in the last month named music as their favorite podcast topic genre [more on that here]. For most stations, chances are your team really knows how to talk about music!)

POST gives you the tools you need to create original podcast series or videos—right from home—and allows you to share your knowledge with others, grow YOUR brand, tie it back to your radio station, and create new revenue streams for both you and your station brands. 

This is a great time to be thinking through branded content that’s a programming fit and a home run for advertisers as well. That wine expert on staff? How about a podcast series done in conjunction with a local wine shop? Have a fitness junkie who’s adjusting to not being able to hit the gym? Why not develop a series around working out at home with a local gym doing virtual training sessions? These are excellent ways to grow your brand’s audience while capitalizing on growing audio ad spending. Here’s another overview from TopLine that breaks that down.

 

 

3. Engage and Educate Your Audience.

One of the great things about POST’s content tools is that they’re easy for anyone to use. In minutes, you can create a simple podcast or video designed to get your audio on platforms like YouTube, or you can spend a little more time using its advanced tools to create visually engaging, content-rich videos for your socials and website.

So why not take advantage of those robust tools for the good of your workforce and your community during the pandemic?

You can maximize the productivity of your newly remote employees by providing them with content creation tools that allow them to publish daily video and audio content on your website, social channels, Spotify, or wherever else you want to engage your audience. (And they don’t even need to put on pants!)

Or, if you’re looking to help your community during the COVID-19 crisis, your station can utilize POST to create free online classes in partnership with local schools or universities. You can help educate your listeners with on-demand content, grow enrollment in nearby educational programs, and even use these opportunities to generate revenue at the station level.

It’s good for you, good for your staff, and good for your audience. That’s win-win-win!

Radio stations are adjusting to the world’s “new normal” just like everyone else. Thankfully, with tools like POST and the rest of Futuri Media’s software solutions, you can create better, more engaging content from the comfort of your own home in a way that makes sense for your listeners and your revenue growth.

major research study at crs 2020

Futuri Media and the University of Florida Present Major Research Study at CRS 2020.

February 21, 2020/in Events, Industry News, Tech Trends, Uncategorized /by Lynn

The final day of CRS 2020 featured the presentation Defending Your Audience Share: Exclusive Research Findings, the results of a major study conducted by Futuri Media and the University of Florida College of Journalism and Communications. 

The study was conducted in January 2020 and surveyed nearly 1,400 people who named country as their favorite music format out of a list of seven options. It also broke out those who listen to AM/FM country radio (both terrestrial and streaming), and those who listen to country music but not via AM/FM country radio. 

Presented by Daniel Anstandig, Futuri Media’s CEO, and Rob Harder, Director of Programming / Brand Manager for the University of Florida radio properties, the study aimed to answer three questions facing country radio today: 

  • How do we defend our country audience and revenue share? 
  • How should we extend our country content onto new platforms? 
  • How will we transcend our challenges as the country competition landscape changes?

Key findings from the study can be found at futurimedia.com/CRS2020. Among the findings: 

  • 76% of AM/FM country listeners would prefer more video content from their favorite country radio station. 
  • Country radio listeners are tuning in to nearly the same amount of AM/FM radio as in the past, but 23% plan to listen to more country radio streaming in the next three months.
  • Women 18-34 who listen to broadcast radio tend to be more active on social media than streaming listeners. Throughout the study, data shows that country stations should have a social strategy that targets country fans, especially younger females, with sticky and recyclable content. 
  • Country listeners who have listened to a podcast in the last month name music as their favorite podcast topic genre. This number is 30%; the next highest topic genre is news/politics at 11%. Country radio station are great at talking about music; this presents an excellent time-shifted and original podcast content opportunity. 
  • Quality station-specific mobile apps present a major engagement opportunity. Younger listeners are more likely to install them, and they’re an opportunity for more connected car listening. Of AM/FM country radio listener respondents, 44% have their favorite station’s mobile app installed on their mobile device, a number that jumps to 48% when looking at the 18-34 demo. And 26% of country fans listen to country music via a connected car platform and are highly likely to listen to country music connecting their mobile device to their vehicle.
