Guest Episodes · Sponsorship
Your story, told right.
A guest seat on Maine Thrive Voices isn’t an ad read. It’s a real conversation about your work, professionally produced and published where Maine actually listens — then working for you long after the episode airs.
One price. Everything included.
No setup fees, no add-ons, no surprises. One flat package covers the entire episode from recording to promotion.
The Guest Episode Package
- A relaxed, professional interview — a real conversation about your work, your customers, and your community, hosted by Sandy Smith.
- Full professional production — edited, mixed, and mastered to broadcast loudness standards.
- Custom episode artwork — designed for the website and Spotify, featuring you.
- Publication on Spotify and the Maine Thrive Voices website.
- A companion Insight article on Maine Thrive Insights — a written version of your story that keeps working in search and AI answers long after air date.
- Email announcement to Maine Thrive Voices subscribers when your episode goes live.
- Your approval before anything publishes — you review and sign off on the episode, artwork, and article first. Always.
Some voices belong on air, plain and simple
These aren’t discounts — they’re standing commitments about whose stories this show exists to tell.

Put your name behind the voices
Show sponsorship is a different kind of relationship — recurring, season-long visibility across episodes, the website, and episode announcements, with a one-time onboarding to get your brand assets and messaging set up right. Founding sponsor packages are available now, and the full prospectus is a conversation away.
Sponsorship inquiries go directly to Sandy Smith. Expect a real reply from a real Mainer, usually within a business day.
Every episode ends the same way it starts — with a Maine story well told.
