Why radio advertising is effective?
Why Radio
• Your market listens 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 targeted.
Each radio station is operated with specific market segments in mind, so despite there being many
radio stations nationwide there are particular stations that target your specific market.
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 offers additional promotional opportunities.
Announcers in your store can sample your product on air and 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 the theatre of the mind.
