Personal Life Media Re-Launches Weekly Show and Two New Sponsors
LOS ALTOS, CA (PRWEB) – July 16, 2007
Personal Life Media™, Inc. a publisher of
lifestyle content in the form of 16 weekly audio programs, podcasts and blogs for
people on the leading edge of culture, introduces ‘DishyMix: Juicy Interviews with
Famous Internet and Media People,’ hosted by industry super-connector Susan Bratton
who “dishes” with the influencers of the Internet and media world. As part of the
move to Personal Life Media, DishyMix also receives sponsorship from Isobar US,http://isobar.net/ the world’s largest digital marketing network servicing clients in 40
countries worldwide and Blue Lithium http://www.bluelithium.com/, a leading datadriven
direct marketing company.
“On DishyMix, I dialog with the most multifarious personalities in the business to give listeners an insight into what drives these VIPs from a personal perspective,” said Susan Bratton, CEO of Personal Life Media and DishyMix Host. “My first podcast, launched on Webmasterradio.fm in 2005, germinated my enthusiasm for this medium. The intimacy of podcasting lends itself to revealing the unique qualities that personify these superstars in our industry and after launching my own podcast network, it was a natural move to bring the show over to Personal Life Media.”
Susan artfully engages with titans of industry to divulge not just their business acumen but more-importantly what inspires them, their personal stories, quirks and motivations. Learn what drives the biggest names and most fascinating characters in media and marketing -- what they’re into, how they got where they are and what they want next in their lives.
With her background in innovative digital advertising, Susan has developed an
integrated package of online and audio podcast advertising that includes ‘Surround
Session’ audio ads in pre-, mid- and post-roll as well as audio advertorials and custom
brand integration into the 16 weekly shows. These ad formats weave together a story
better than a single ad insertion. The online component consists of banners,
skyscrapers and text links on the podcast site as well as the companion blogs for the
shows. Charter Advertising Programs include online and audio campaign reporting.
“Isobar US is focused on creating an organization that best delivers creativity, innovation and agility, the keys to success in a digital environment,” said Sarah Fay, President, Isobar US. “DishyMix appeals to a senior-level decision-maker who is just the right person to hear the Isobar message in our audio advertising.”
“BlueLithium is known for innovating the ad network,” says Dakota Sullivan, CMO, BlueLithium. “Podcast advertising is a natural for us. It’s a new medium and DishyMix listeners are our target audience – the movers and shakers of digital marketing.”
