Find a Healthcare-Active Audience at Scale
Did you know that we are living in Generation Audio and everyone belongs? Digital audio attracts 193M listeners each month, reaching 68% of the total U.S. population. This mass adoption is led in large part by high-quality content, personalization, the ubiquity of high-speed internet, the popularity of podcasts, and 3D audio technology.
With unlimited audio and visual entertainment at our fingertips, there is no shortage of possible media partners for healthcare marketers. One of the many reasons marketers choose to work with SXM Media properties - Pandora, SiriusXM and Stitcher - is the ability to reach a verified healthcare-active audience at scale, with a medium that is proven to positively impact one’s health - Audio.
Americans are spending nearly 4 hours a day streaming digital audio content, and U.S. households own an average of 10+ connected devices. With over 150 million U.S. listeners, a brand-safe ad environment, and full-funnel ad product solutions, SXM Media has become a pivotal part of the healthcare marketing media mix to enhance digital marketing strategies.
SXM Media’s proprietary listener studies reveal valuable insights about their audience that can help guide healthcare marketing creative, targeting, and device tactics for the most impactful campaigns. For example, the recent survey found that 83% of adult listeners have visited a Doctor/Healthcare professional in the past year. Most of those listeners visited a Primary Care Physician (75%) or a Specialist (47%). 2 in 5 listeners who have visited a healthcare professional in the last 12 months did so for the first time.
