Podcasts hit different for Gen Z. They started young and their appetite for the medium is growing. And 8 in 10 monthly listeners say they don’t do anything else when they’re listening—making it a great time for brands to reach them.
Is there a more sought-after demographic target right now for marketers and publishers alike than the ever-elusive Gen Z? While much has written about this generation’s views on the world, their brand preferences, their unique jargon, and the fact that they have grown up with digital technology and social media, to date there hasn’t been much of a spotlight on what role podcasts play for them.

While that space below the post holds only a handful of words, it’s hard to overstate its true value. New followers, customers, or repeat buyers—80% of users on Instagram say it helps them make buying decisions. As such, it’s critical to write engaging captions to drive viewers to convert. Read More

If you were to search among tech review sites for a USB microphone recommendation, you'd almost definitely see a Blue product listed. Founded in 1995 and gaining consumer recognition with distinct designs, like the Snowball and Yeti, Blue Microphones branding has become well-known, from audiophiles to newcomers looking to launch their first podcast. But moving forward, the Blue Microphones brand will be no more.
Logitech announced its Blue Microphones acquisition in 2018, 23 years after jazz musician Skipper Wise and audio engineer Martins Saulespurens created the company.
