Nine Looks To Grow New Revenue With Podcasting Strategy

Nine will look to grow new revenue streams with a podcasting strategy, built around leveraging many of its existing brands across news, sports and lifestyle, in the audio realm. 

Launched under the umbrella of 9Podcasts, Nine began with an initial rollout of three weekly brands: the Sweet Spot, a relationship-based weekly podcast which started on the back of Married at First Sight; an NRL podcast, Six Tackles With Gus, hosted by Phil Gould and James Bracey; and a news and current affairs podcast, The Way It Is, hosted by journalists Leila McKinnon and Neil Breen.   

“Nine is a brand synonymous with news and sport, so we want to feature our talent and build on brands such as Nine News and Wide World of Sports in a way that is complementary to what we are already doing. 9Podcasts will leverage  our television and digital reach in news, sport and entertainment and develop a new revenue stream in audio.”

9Podcasts is hosted on the nine.com.au website as well as in the iTunes store, with Nine looking to roll out other podcasts that complement and extend its key content areas, brands and talent, over the course of the year. 

Helen McCabe, Head of Lifestyle for nine.com.au, said it was heartening to see the growth in the relationship podcast Sweet Spot, hosted by journalist Katharine Feeney, which has seen numbers for download increase each week on the back of the success of Nine’s hit show, Married at First Sight. 

“The Sweet Spot podcast has shown us there is real potential to close the loop and have a complementary offering across all media,” said McCabe. “With something like Married at First Sight we have audiences who are tuning in to watch the show, reading recaps and news stories  around the participants on 9Honey, and then downloading the podcast to listen to the experts exploring the relationship issues raised in the program.”

Sweet Spot, Six Tackles With Gus and The Way It Is are available to be listened and subscribed to at nine.com.au/podcasts and via 9Honey and iTunes.
