The Honest Version

We're small. On purpose.

PTCH isn't trying to be Huberman Lab. We're a Willamette Valley health podcast with a national tail — roughly 150 downloads per episode across audio platforms, plus a growing YouTube long-form audience.

That number is small on paper. The thing that matters is what those listeners do: they finish 70.7% of a 55-minute episode on Apple Podcasts — roughly double the industry average. They listen for 15 minutes and 19 seconds per play on Spotify. In Corvallis, they average eleven minutes per view — ten times the YouTube average.

If you're buying reach, we are the wrong podcast. If you're buying trust, completion, and a hyper-engaged regional audience who hears every word of your ad, keep reading.

The Local Anchor

66% of our audio audience lives in Oregon.

Portland (1,086 plays) and Corvallis (964 plays) account for two-thirds of all Apple Podcasts listens. Add Salem and Eugene and the number pushes past 70%.

For any Willamette Valley business — financial services, dental, wellness, retail, hospitality, real estate — this is a concentrated hometown audience you cannot reach as efficiently with any other channel.

Corvallis specifically

average Corvallis listen per play

Our 156 unique Corvallis listeners on Apple Podcasts alone have logged 179 hours of listening — more total watch time than Los Angeles, on a fraction of the plays.

Engagement Quality

The numbers that actually matter.

At our size, retention matters more than reach. Every metric below is verifiable from platform analytics.

70.7%
Apple Completion Rate

Listeners finish 70% of a ~55-minute episode. Industry average is 45–55%. A host-read in the middle actually gets heard.

Avg Spotify Listen

Over 15 minutes per play on Spotify. This isn't background noise — it's sustained, focused listening.

Where Your Ad Will Live

Content that connects.

Top-performing episodes by unique Apple Podcasts listeners.

The Content Pattern

Six of our top twelve audio episodes by unique listeners are women's health, movement, and recovery topics — yoga, pelvic floor, menopause (×2), motherhood & strength, and stretching myths. Our engaged audio audience consistently shows up for thoughtful women's-health and midlife-movement content.

Honest Fit

Who this is for.

The brands below are our ideal fit — but we're not rigid about it. If you think we could work, reach out. The "won't work with" list is where we draw actual lines.

Especially good fits

  • ·A premium product or service in the Willamette Valley — dental, financial advising, real estate, wellness studios, hospitality, local retail.
  • ·An evidence-based health or wellness brand — supplements with real clinical trials, medical devices, clinician-led services, women's midlife health.
  • ·A product that benefits from explanation and trust, not price competition.
  • ·Thinking about this as a 6-12 month relationship, not a one-off ad placement.
  • ·Believes in long-form, trust-based marketing over impression-counting.

Don't check every box? Reach out anyway. These are tendencies, not requirements. If your product is honest and serves our audience, geography and vertical are flexible.

Hard no's

  • ·Supplement brands making therapeutic claims without evidence or third-party testing.
  • ·Multilevel marketing or downline-recruitment structures.
  • ·Products that require dismissing conventional medicine to sell.
  • ·Wellness fads, detox protocols, or anything positioned as a "cure."
  • ·Anyone expecting us to read a script we don't believe. We reserve editorial control on every ad.

These are firm. They protect our audience's trust, which is the whole point.

How It Works

First call to first campaign in 2–3 weeks.

01

Discovery call (30 min)

We learn your product, your positioning, and what you actually want to accomplish. If it's not something we'd recommend to our patients, we say so.

02

Campaign brief & script

You share product details, promo code, vanity URL, and exclusions. We translate into our voice. You approve every script before we record.

03

Contract & invoice

Simple SOW via HelloSign. 50% deposit books the flight. Net-15 on the balance. Paid via Stripe or ACH.

04

Campaign flight

Host-reads ship in 4 consecutive episodes. Monthly social post goes live. Tracking is active from day one. You get a midpoint check-in.

05

Renewal conversation

We review code redemptions, URL clicks, and what we both learned. Most sponsors renew on a longer term at rates they help shape.

Real Answers

The objections, handled.

Your audience is small. Why not spend this on Facebook ads? +

Because your Facebook ad gets scrolled past in 1.2 seconds by a disengaged audience. Our host-reads get finished by a 70.7%-completion-rate audience who trusts the hosts delivering them. Different products at different price points. If you're chasing CPM, go to Meta. If you're building brand trust in a specific audience, that's us.

How do I measure whether this is working? +

Every sponsor gets a unique promo code, a vanity URL with UTM tracking, and a monthly performance report covering episode downloads in your flight window, code redemptions, URL click-through, and social post engagement. You'll know within the first month whether the math works.

What's the minimum commitment? +

30 days on Starter and Growth. 90 days on Authority and WV Exclusive. Podcast sponsorship needs time to compound — we've never seen a sponsor learn anything useful about fit in less than 4 episodes.

Will you say anything we ask you to say? +

No. We maintain editorial control on every ad we read. If your claim isn't supported by the evidence we know, we'll ask you to soften it, rephrase it, or remove it. This is why sponsor-reads from PTCH carry the credibility they do — the audience knows we won't read something we don't believe.

Can we get category exclusivity? +

Yes, at the WV Exclusive tier. For one business per category (e.g., one financial advisor, one dentist, one supplement brand), we'll decline any competing sponsor for the duration of your term.

How soon can we start? +

2–3 weeks from discovery call to first host-read. One week for brief and script approval. One week for contract and invoicing. Episodes record 1–2 weeks ahead of publication.

Do you work with guests as well as sponsors? +

Yes — sponsors at the Authority tier or higher are considered for guest appearances when the topic fits. A full-length conversation builds trust in a way no ad-read can. We'll tell you honestly whether your expertise is the right fit for an episode.

What if it's not working after 30 days? +

We do an honest review, adjust the script or placement, and you decide whether to continue. We'd rather end a sponsorship that's not working than keep billing for one that isn't. Reputation compounds. Bad fits don't.

Next Step

Let's build
something honest.
