Why Spotify works

Ear time is limitless

Screenless moments

Listening that goes everywhere

People listen to music to make doing other things better. It lifts their mood and goes with them while they work out, shop, study or work, so your ad reaches them in moments other media can’t.

Changes in consumer behaviour

Ads people are used to

People have grown used to advertising on streaming services, just as they accept the ads before a YouTube video. Listeners expect messages sponsored by brands, and don’t feel Spotify ads take away from their experience.

Spotify audience insights based on listening habits
