The MADness Podcast

Reaching an audience that speaks your language

The MADness Podcast brings together the people shaping marketing, admissions and growth within international education.

Through conversations with school leaders, admissions and marketing professionals, innovators and sector experts, the pod explores the ideas, challenges and opportunities facing international schools around the world.

The podcast has achieved more than 3,000 downloads across 70+ countries, supported by a growing LinkedIn community of more than 650 highly relevant followers from across international education.

We don't claim to offer a mass-market audience. We offer something different - access to a highly defined, international community of professionals working in and around schools, admissions and marketing.

For the right commercial partner, it's not about reaching everyone. It's about being seen and heard by the right people.
