Congratulations - you're set up on ART19! Your series is live, you're publishing episodes, your ad markers are in place, and your brand approvals are configured. Here's what to expect going forward and some features to explore when you're ready.
What to Expect
First few days
- Your ads will start delivering once brands match your approved categories. Don't worry if it takes a day or two for the first ads to appear.
- New brands will appear on your Pending Brands page for any categories you've set to "Review". Brands in categories you've already approved or blocked will be handled automatically.
- If you submitted to new listening platforms, they can take anywhere from a few hours to 5 days to index your series.
First few weeks
- Ad delivery will ramp up gradually over the first 60 days. You'll see ads from day one, but the system needs time to gather enough data to fully match your content with the right advertisers. This is normal - fill rates will improve steadily as the system learns.
- Keep an eye on your analytics in the Performance section to track downloads and ad impressions.
- Check your Brand Reports regularly to see which advertisers are running on your content.
- If you notice any brands you'd rather not have, decline them on the Managed Brands page or add them to your block list.
Advanced Features to Explore
Once you're comfortable with the basics, here are some things to try:
- Ad-Free Feeds - create a separate feed without ads for premium subscribers
- Running Your Own Campaigns - set up house ads, cross-promotions, or direct-sold campaigns
- Custom Reports - build tailored reports with the metrics that matter to you
- Embedded Player - embed your episodes directly on your website
- Managing Users - add or remove team members from your series
