The Story
DroneSense (Versaterm) is a platform designed for first responders, enabling remote drone operation and real-time video streaming for comprehensive situational awareness. In pursuit of becoming a thought leader in the drone public safety industry, DroneSense collaborated with Fame to launch an insightful podcast named “Dronecast: Rethinking Public Safety, One Drone at a Time” that showcased the company's core values.
The podcast's carefully crafted tone, balancing friendliness and informativeness, aimed to provide actionable insights for the audience. In addition, Fame worked on connecting with key executives and creating social media content to enhance the podcast's reach and engagement. The result was the successful positioning of DroneSense as a trusted resource and authority in the drone public safety space. The podcast built brand awareness and fostered a community aligned with its core values.
Within 24 hours after launch, our podcast soared to the number four spot in the Aviation category, and the momentum has only compounded since. Across 29 months of consistent publication, the show has amassed over 166,900 all-time downloads, driven by strategic promotion and paid marketing that yielded massive listener spikes, including a record-breaking 51,150 downloads in April 2026 alone. Today, the show boasts a loyal, cumulative audience of over 2,450 dedicated followers across Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
