Stampede Social Launches RSS-Powered DM Automation for Podcasters, Including First-of-Its-Kind Host-Read Ad Attribution
Stampede Social, the Meta-approved social engagement and attribution platform that turns Instagram comments and DMs into trackable, attributable conversions, today announced three new features built specifically for podcast hosts and networks.
Latest Campaign: The Set-It-and-Forget-It Listener Engine. Hosts publish one permanent keyword (like “PODCAST”) tied directly to their RSS feed. Any fan who comments or DMs that keyword receives the host’s most recent episode automatically, including episode artwork pulled from the feed. When a new episode publishes, the next fan who asks gets it. No updates, no campaign management, no manual work. Ever.
Episode Keyword Campaigns: Back Catalog on Demand. Hosts connect their RSS feed once and browse their entire catalog inside Stampede’s campaign builder. Assign a unique keyword to any episode, new release or back-catalog gem, and every fan who comments that keyword gets a direct DM link to that exact episode. The smart setup: run a permanent PODCAST campaign alongside per-episode keywords so every post drives to the right episode.
Host-Read Ad Attribution: DM-Based Sponsor Tracking Without Pixels. When a host reads a mid-roll ad, they give listeners a keyword to DM (like “CLASSIC50”). Stampede fires back an instant DM with the sponsor’s destination link and promo code, and tracks every single click. Sponsors stop asking whether the ad worked and start seeing real attribution data tied to air date and episode, with none of the tech setup that pixel-based tracking requires.
“Your next thousand listeners are already commenting,” said Jeff Dwoskin, Co-founder of Stampede Social. “We built these features so a host can set up once and run forever, and so sponsors finally get click data instead of promo code guesses.”
The three podcast features work with any podcast RSS feed. If your hosting platform publishes an RSS feed, you’re good to go. Feeds refresh every hour. Setup takes under five minutes.
All features are available now at stampede.social.
