AIRKAST, a leader in mobile app development for broadcasters and media companies, has partnered with nationally syndicated radio show hosts and podcasters -- including SILVERFISH MEDIA nationally syndicated Country music morning show personalities BIG D & BUBBA, sex therapist DR. LAURA BERMAN, and former CBS-TV's "Survivor" star SHANE POWERS -- to "engage and monetize" their audiences using the proprietary AIRBRIDGE mobile platform. The apps are compatible with iOS, ANDROID, and KINDLE platforms and include APPLE CARPLAY, ANDROID AUTO, and ALEXA connectivity. Each show and brand can now engage their audience and fans with on-demand audio, social media interaction, live video, and more.
Commented AIRKAST VP/Business Development MICHAEL FISCHER, "We're thrilled to announce these new partnerships. With audio and mobile app listening showing continued growth, AIRKAST is excited that our broadcast and media clients are experiencing the great benefits of this boom in audio listening and monetization. From on-air hosts, syndicated radio shows, and podcasters, we allow each personality, show or brand to have their own app allowing them to take control of how they're represented, promoted and monetized in the mobile marketplace."
The AIRKAST platform recently added support for advanced push notifications including multi-language support and geo-targeting, mobile listener heat maps, live local weather, retail beacons, and second screen experiences triggered by subsonic audio tones.
Added FISCHER, "Our cloud-based CMS makes it easy to assign attribution and success metrics for both advertisers and our content partners giving them the analytics they need to drive their businesses."
AIRKAST currently works with over 60 media companies and 800 media properties including CUMULUS MEDIA, FOX NEWS RADIO, and CBS RADIO NEWS.
