Easy-to-deploy APIs can also integrate AudienceCloud into existing third-party platforms, dashboards, and environments.

“AudienceDesk has transformed our own digital platform with a full audience-based advertising and data infrastructure that enables us to easily create unique ad campaigns for our brand and agency partners,” added Maduri. “These campaigns can run across our various sites and as well through the broader Collective Audience ecosystem of media partners.”

Maduri anticipates that being more directly connected and outcome-driven ad campaigns will enable Genesis to increase the value of its audiences and ad inventory by removing the traditional middleman and associated costs and inefficiencies. The end-to-end, self-serve AI enabled platform will allow Genesis to fully automate its advertising and data workflows.

Collective Audience CEO, Peter Bordes, stated: “We are very excited to welcome Genesis onto our AudienceDesk platform. While we can bring tremendous benefits to their media properties and customers, they will also contribute uniquely valuable source of audience data for advertisers on our platform.”

Collective Audience will be helping Genesis integrate and build its first party audience data assets and insights using AudienceCloud conversational ad units. This in turn can be used to engage and gather data from audiences via surveys, quizzes and performance advertising campaigns managed with AudienceDesk. A live demonstration of these innovative ad units can be experienced here.

“Genesis’s media business represents the essence of engagement,” continued Maduri, who also heads up the media production company, United Cities Productions. “Talk Radio has been one of the most valued mediums consumers continued to enjoy world-wide as a source of news and entertainment.

“For us, news and talk radio has allowed us to reach new audiences with social media engagement, web publications and video, including live stream. All of these mediums serve as ‘tentacles’ that reach out to the news and sports fans across our media system. And now with Collective Audience, we can reach deeper into our audiences and add new consumers to our product lines.”

According to Nielsen Audio, radio attracts more than 230 million listeners nationwide with more than 10 hours per listener on average each week. Radio reaches 91% of the U.S. population monthly, making it America’s #1 reach medium.

“Our business is to create content that keeps our consumers on board for long periods of time, regardless of the platform,” said Maduri. “AudienceDesk will not only help generate designs that benefits Genesis, but more importantly, create greater response and ROI for our ad partners.”

Maduri is especially interested in how AudienceDesk can manage quizzes, surveys and contests. This capability can further enhance its customer engagement activities on Google and HubSpot, and allow it to engage more advertisers with greater efficiency and effectiveness.

Following Collective Audience’s integration with Reset Digital announced earlier this week, Genesis also expects to learn more about its audience lifestyles, which in turn will help ad partners in targeting the right message for the highest result. It expects this to bring a great benefit to Genesis’ digital revenue strategy in addition to its traditional broadcast model.

“Data collection and sourcing through AudienceCloud seems for us the logical next step toward generating audience info that can build ad revenue,” added Maduri. “The ad units are ideal especially for sports and politics, allowing us to create a unique ad program for advertisers. We find it all to be a very exciting opportunity for growth and expansion of our media platform.”

Collective Audience and Genesis are also exploring establishing closer ties through an equity exchange or other structure. “We are well aligned on what a modern media and advertising company looks like,” noted Bordes. “Genesis could become the cornerstone of our planned Collective Audience Media Network and help us scale our owned media properties on the AudienceCloud platform.”
