Secret Sonics has a passionate listener base of professional and amateur studio people, who consistently engage with the content and are always striving to improve at their craft and in their careers.
On a personal level, this show has created a network of friends and colleagues that I am consistently in touch with. It has been the project that has kept me sane throughout the pandemic. It has also enabled me to become a node in this industry that I care so much about.
Looking ahead, we hope to continue growing an audience, getting killer guests, and making an excellent podcast that makes a big impact on the audio community. It's important to us to feature female music producers since we believe that their voices need to be heard and that an increase in visibility will help foster a growing population of female audio professionals. This is something that we know there’s a hunger for. When we ran ads featuring female producers, they resulted in more clickthroughs than their male peers. Finally, we believe that our audience is only beginning to form and that by partnering with a few select companies, we can help increase the credibility of the show and hopefully reach even more listeners.
Audience growth
As can be seen, Secret Sonics has reached nearly 45,000 downloads total and has grown to over 2,500 downloads per month across all episodes.
