Sponsor
Put your brand in front of the people building Northwest Arkansas
Every guest is a founder or operator of a Northwest Arkansas business, and each conversation runs about ninety minutes. We don't publish listener figures we can't show you.
Counts come from the published archive, as of October 2026. Every figure links to the page that proves it.
Why local businesses sponsor
The goal of the podcast is to inspire entrepreneurship in Northwest Arkansas by highlighting the people building businesses here. A host-read message lands inside a conversation the listener chose to spend an hour in, which is a different thing from an ad in a feed.

About the numbers
Figures you can check yourself, as of October 17, 2026:
- 5.0 average rating across 23 ratings on Apple Podcasts.
- 38,814 total views on the NWA Founders YouTube channel.
We don't print download figures here, because you can't check them from outside. We're happy to walk you through the Transistor dashboard on a call.
What is open right now
The third place, above. Both current partnerships are active, and we keep the roster small on purpose. Ask, and we'll tell you whether your category is spoken for.
Either tier can also run for a season: a set run of episodes rather than an open-ended term.

That did not go through, so nothing was recorded. Check that every field marked * has an answer and send it again, or write to nwafounders@gmail.com, which reaches exactly the same place.
