Overview
Scendar provides accounting and advisory services for founders, funders and startups.
It wanted to be front of mind for exactly that crowd: the founders and angel investors who tune in to First Cheque.
The campaign
Scendar sponsored First Cheque, the investing show hosted by Cheryl Mack and Maxine Minter.
Host-read integrations in every sponsored episode.
Promotion across the show's social channels, putting Scendar in front of founders and investors between episodes too.

A 5.52% engagement rate, well above LinkedIn's 1–3.5% benchmark, across 76,304 social impressions.
