Radio Advertising Tips
Radio is a very versatile medium - it reaches people on-the-go, at home, at work and in their cars. It is a strong frequency builder that provides high targetability opportunities. It reaches those who view TV less frequently and can provide many opportunities for added value and enhance promotional campaigns.
When placing a local radio program, please consider the following:
- Purchase radio stations with highest ratings and composition of target audience.
- Purchase multiple dayparts, including a significant presence in a.m. and p.m. drive times, to extend reach and for greater efficiency.
- Negotiate for substantial added value packages to enhance impact of campaign.
- On-air mentions at the beginning or end of sponsorships, called "billboards"
- Station event tie-ins/distribute information
- Station website advertising/links
- The best formats for our target audience include easy listening, country, religious, and classic rock.
