Advertising Info

Why should advertisers use radio?

Radio Works!

Radio Advertising works hard to create sales, the ultimate proof of advertising is effectiveness.  Local advertisers ring up extra business on their tills!  Whether its durables, packaged goods, travel or financial services - or a host of other advertised categories - radio WORKS!

The Immediate Medium

No other medium can react as fast as radio.  The latest news about products and prices can be part of today's advertising and have sales results today.  Peak listening is in the morning when minds are fresh and eager for information.  Radio has the last word before people going shopping

Radio Involves People

Mostly listening on their own, people appreciate the friendly local radio style.  It encourages an active audience response - around half have had some direct contact with their station through phone-ins, charity events and outside broadcasts.  They develop a real relationship with presenters and the station themselves.

Radio Reaches People

Advertisers can reach all sectors of the community in huge numbers!

The Personal Medium

There are more radio sets than people in this country, reaching them in every room in the house, in the garden, in the street, in the car and at work.  Listening becomes a matter of habit and regular patterns of use make the medium easy to plan.
