Command Attention in Every Playlist

Music, podcasts, workouts, commutes — every moment is a chance to take space in your customer’s head. Streaming audio ads make sure it’s your message echoing, not your competitor’s.

From spotify to pandora,
we hijack the stream.

Google
YouTube
Amazon Music
iHeartRadio

Your customers don’t stop consuming media when they leave the screen. They’ve got headphones in while driving, lifting, shopping, cleaning, and zoning out after work. If your brand isn’t in those moments, your competitor already is.

Streaming audio isn’t background noise — it’s front-row access. Ads delivered during workouts, podcasts, and playlists don’t just “build awareness.” They create recall, credibility, and urgency. Done right, they make your brand impossible to ignore and impossible to forget.

MoltenGiraffe doesn’t treat streaming as filler. We weaponize it — targeting the exact listeners you need with messages built to stick. The result? More traffic, more sales, and your name sitting top-of-mind long after the song ends.

What is streaming audio advertising?

Streaming audio advertising isn’t radio with a facelift. It’s ads delivered directly into the playlists, podcasts, and news streams your customers actually choose to spend hours with every day.

It’s not just about “reaching an audience.” It’s about being present in their daily rituals — the run before work, the commute home, the late-night podcast binge. That’s where decisions and loyalty are built.

With streaming audio, you don’t spray and pray. You target by behavior, by mood, by context. You measure every impression, every completion, every conversion. You know what works, and you cut what doesn’t.

The end result? Ads that don’t just get heard, but remembered. Ads that move people to act — and move revenue in your direction.

What's the difference? Streaming audio & radio ads?

Radio was built for everyone. Streaming is built for you.

Radio: one message, blasted to whoever happens to be in the car. No control. No targeting. No feedback. You pay, you hope, you guess.

Streaming: your message, delivered to exactly who you want — by age, by interest, by behavior, even by mood. And the best part? You know what worked. You can track it, measure it, optimize it, and do it again tomorrow.

Radio is guessing. Streaming is precision.
Radio is background noise. Streaming is chosen, personal, and immersive.

If you’re still spending money on radio, you’re paying for static. Streaming is where attention actually lives.

Streaming audio ads VS. Radio ads

Streaming audio isn’t the “next version” of radio. It’s a completely different weapon.

  • Targeting that actually matters. Age, location, behavior, mood — you decide who hears your message. Radio? Whoever happens to be within range.

  • Results you can prove. Impressions, completions, conversions — real metrics you can adjust in real time. Radio? Hope and pray.

  • Everywhere your customers already are. Headphones, smart speakers, car dashboards, desktop apps. Radio? Stuck in traffic.

Radio was built for mass. Streaming is built for precision. One wastes money. The other grows it.

Most common streaming audio ad types

Streaming audio gives you multiple ways to get in your listener’s head. Here are the formats that matter — and how they really work:

  • Standard Audio Ads (15–30 sec):
    The bread and butter. Short, punchy spots between songs or episodes. They can carry a visual banner alongside, but the voice does the heavy lifting.

  • Audio + Video Combos:
    Think of this as a one-two punch. Your ad plays in the stream while a branded video or motion graphic takes over the screen. Perfect for platforms where users glance at the app.

  • Podcast Ads:
    The most trusted format in audio. Read live by the host or dropped in seamlessly, they feel less like ads and more like recommendations. Perfect for credibility and niche targeting.

  • Sponsored Playlists & Stations:
    Instead of a single ad, you own the vibe. Branded cover art, intros, outros, and audio woven throughout. These keep your name in front of listeners for hours, not seconds.

  • Companion Ads:
    Banners, CTAs, clickable elements that appear with your audio/video ad. They make sure listeners don’t just hear you — they can act right away.

Every platform has its quirks. The real win is matching format to strategy: the quick hit for awareness, the podcast read for trust, the playlist sponsorship for long-term presence.

What is Display Retargeting?

Display retargeting is the process of re-engaging individuals who have previously encountered your ads. In the case of audio ads, this means that after someone has heard your ad on a streaming platform, they will be ‘retargeted’ when they visit other websites or apps. Your ads will appear on these external sites, thereby reminding them of your brand and reinforcing your advertising message.

Step 1
User hears your ad on streaming platform
Step 2
User visits other websites
Step 3
your ads show up on those sites
Step 4
user becomes a customer while you build brand recognition
