Why Radio? Your customers listen to the radio. The people who buy your product or use your service listen to the radio. In fact, close to 90% of the population listens to the radio. Radio is portable. In the car, at the office, in the garden you can reach your customer on the radio throughout the day or night. This increases the frequency that your message can be delivered. Radio reaches your customer with frequency. Advertising works by repetition. You may need to be exposed to a commercial three or four times before you take action. To reach this “viable frequency” radio advertising is often more cost effective than other media. Radio can come to you. Announcers in your store, sampling your product on air, running a competition. Hard to do with print or on TV, but radio can offer this sort of “added value”, personalizing your product to your customer. Sound is memorable. Sound is stored in the memory more effectively than the written word. Sound, the spoken word offers emotion and encourages the listeners imagination to produce their own desirable image of a product Radio is Intimate “Perhaps the biggest benefit of using radio advertising is the effectiveness of ads on listeners. Radio is perceived as the most intimate of advertising mediums, because people are so often alone when listening to the radio, such as when driving to and from work. Also, people usually tend to develop a personal relationship with their favorite radio stations and programs, more so than television. As a result, people have been found to be more accepting of radio ads than of any other type of advertising media. This intimacy provides an opportunity to contact more personally with consumers, and to arouse emotions in the listener which, if all goes well, will increase the chance of a sale.” -- Source: Budda Oliver - EzineArticles.com Expert Author |
