Scendar

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.

Results

A 3.27% click-through rate, more than five times the LinkedIn benchmark of 0.44–0.65%.

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