Southern Cross Austereo & Sonnant
Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) is one of Australia’s leading media companies, with a large portfolio of radio and digital assets. In recent years, the company has undergone a digital transformation, modernising its operations and leveraging new technologies to drive growth. As part of this transformation, Southern Cross Austereo adopted Sonnant to automate and streamline its workflows.
One of the key challenges facing the company was the time-consuming and manual nature of content production. All aspects of this process was slow and labour-intensive. By implementing Sonnant, SCA was able to automate many of these tasks, saving time and freeing up its team to focus on creating great content.

The platform’s analytics and reporting tools provided valuable insights into audience behaviour and content engagement, enabling SCA to make data-driven decisions about its content, sales and marketing strategies.
”What started as a small pilot, quickly led to rolling out Sonnant platforms to teams across our 86 radio stations. And we continue to be excited daily by the results.” Jade Howard – Head of Partnerships
