You record every week, your RSS feed is healthy, and your download numbers are finally worth pitching. Then a brand asks for your rate card and you send a PDF that opens sideways on their phone. Flipbooks AI fixes that last step by turning your sponsor media kit into a page-flip link a buyer can read in one tap, before they ever reply.
Why a page-flip kit beats a PDF attachment
Most sponsor emails die because the attachment is friction. A 12MB PDF gets compressed by the mail server, stripped by a spam filter, or shoved into a downloads folder the buyer never opens. Your listenership charts and ad-slot options sit unread. A flipbook link sidesteps all of that. The buyer taps once, the kit opens in their browser, and they swipe through your downloads per episode, episode cadence, and mid-roll pricing like a real magazine.
Because it is a single URL, you can drop it into a cold email, a DM, or your show notes. And when your listenership grows next season, you swap the PDF behind the link and every brand you ever pitched now sees the updated numbers.
A sponsor who can page through your CPM and ad-read formats on their phone in the elevator is a sponsor who replies before lunch.
A showrunner kit is not a resume. It is a buying menu. Lead with the metric that closes deals, then make every ad option easy to skim.
The listenership spread
Open with downloads per episode across your last handful of drops, plus your 30-day trend. Add a short line on your audience: their age band, where they listen, and why they trust your ad reads. This is the spread buyers screenshot and forward to their team.
The ad inventory spread
Lay out pre-roll, mid-roll, and post-roll as separate slots so a buyer can pick without emailing you. Note whether you run dynamic ad insertion or baked-in reads, and list your sponsor tiers so a brand can self-select before the call.
| Ad slot | Format | Typical length | Best for |
|---|
| Pre-roll | Host-read baked in | 15 to 30 sec | Launch awareness |
| Mid-roll | Host-read, dynamic insertion | 60 sec | Direct response |
| Post-roll | Host-read baked in | 30 sec | Retargeting |
| Full episode | Presenting sponsor | Whole show | Season takeover |
Build your kit in five steps
- Export your one-sheet, rate card, and season guide as a single PDF from Canva, Docs, or Keynote.
- Upload that PDF to Flipbooks AI and let it become a page-flip book.
- Rename the link so the URL reads like your show, then set the cover to your latest audiogram frame.
- Paste the link into your pitch email and your booking page so guests and sponsors reach the same kit.
- Update the PDF each season and the same link stays live for every brand you have ever contacted.
Embed the kit on your show site
If you run a website for guest booking or listener sign-ups, drop the flipbook straight onto the page. Viewers flip through your inventory without leaving your site.

What to put on each page
Keep every spread scannable so a media buyer never has to squint. A tight kit reads faster than any deck.
- Downloads per episode: your rolling average and the 30-day trend line, front and center.
- CPM and pricing: your ranges by ad slot so buyers self-qualify before the call.
- Sponsor tiers: bronze to presenting, with what each tier unlocks spelled out.
- Past reads: two or three brands you have run, with a one-line result each.
- Booking window: your next open mid-roll dates so the buyer knows there is urgency.
For the design polish on those spreads, our press kit designer gives you clean layout blocks, and the digital portfolio creator helps you frame past sponsor wins. Both feed neatly into the same page-flip link. Browse more use cases if you also produce a network of shows.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do sponsors need an app to open my flipbook?
No. The link opens in any mobile or desktop browser, so a media buyer taps once and starts flipping. There is nothing to download and nothing to install, which is exactly why it beats a heavy PDF attachment.
Can I update my downloads per episode without resending the link?
Yes. Swap the PDF behind the flipbook whenever a new season shifts your listenership, and the same URL shows the fresh numbers. Every brand you pitched last month now sees your current CPM and ad inventory.
Will the same kit work for guest booking too?
Absolutely. Many showrunners keep a second flipbook that pitches the show to potential guests, with episode cadence and audiogram samples, and share it right beside the sponsor kit.
