What is Radio Station Advertising?

Put simply, radio advertising is a way to promote your product or service on commercial radio stations through the medium of short audio adverts (typically 30 seconds long). These radio adverts typically run in between songs, chat and news bulletins and are used by a range of companies due to their ability to reach a huge cross-section of society.

Radio ads are used for a variety of messages; from commercial selling through to public service messaging.

Radio costs are reasonable when compared to other forms of marketing, meaning that it subsequently achieves a great return on investment; this is one of its main advantages and why it is used time after time, week after week.

What is the Cost of Radio Advertising?

The factors which broadly determine the cost are outlined below:

  • Reach/Number of Listeners/Listenership – the more people who tune in to a radio station on a daily basis (and therefore the more likely to hear your radio advert) the more expensive it will be. Heart advertising costs and Hits/Capital radio advertising costs are obviously more expensive (as large commercial stations) than smaller local stations - but you would expect this because they have more listeners (so potentially more customers for you). So the option when choosing a station to advertise on is; do you want to hit lots of people in a wide area or a smaller but more select audience more locally?

  • Number of Slots – the more slots (number of radio adverts) you choose to have, the more expensive it will be. You may choose to do a couple of ads each day or want to go more “heavyweight” and do between 10-15 slots so that you are covering the majority of the day. If you are uncertain of which approach to take our media planners will advise. Think about when in the day your target market and target audience will be listening and tailor your slots to their life and listening patterns.

  • Length of Campaign – most adverts are the same length – 30 seconds – and a typical campaign would be over one week. Sometimes however you may want to do a shorter period, a weekend promotion or a “winning weekend” are popular in raising awareness. If you have a larger budget, you may look to do a few weeks with your radio ad to really get your message and brand out there on the airwaves. For the best results, we tend to suggest a minimum of a week, however, a two-week campaign is ideal for a good amount of coverage.

  • Time of Slots - depending on what you are promoting, certain times of day may work better. Slots are broadly broken down into breakfast, day, evening (rush hour) and night. The most sought-after tend to be breakfast and evening as they have higher listeners. Again, have a think about when your target audience may be listening, or equally spread them throughout the day to hit a variety and cross-section of people. A spread tends to be the most typical approach by most advertisers but your product will guide you to the most suitable timings.

  • Radio Talk Ups and Radio Co-Promotions – as well as doing straight “air-time” you can also do what is called “talk-up” or “co-promotions”, this is where the DJs/presenters talk about a product. Often this can be a more creative approach. They are given a script and bullet points to mention so that they talk about the right things and are “on message”. Radio co-promos are often an informal way of getting your key information across. Sometimes stations can be picky about what services and products they do co-promotions with. Examples of co-promotions are when presenters talk about how “great” a film or theatre show is - when they may not have actually seen it!

Does Radio Advertising Work?

The simple answer is yes!

When you think about it, most people listen to the radio on a daily basis; in their homes, at work and also when driving, therefore it is a great way to reach a mass amount of people quickly. This mass reach is one of the main benefits; it can hit millions of people all at once. Most forms of marketing media (apart from TV advertising) cannot claim to achieve this, whilst radio adverts manage to do this at a fraction of the price of TV advertising.

However, even though a radio ad hits a huge number of listeners this isn’t untargeted as stations have different demographics e.g. younger people tend to listen to Hits/Capital FM, older listeners tend to tune into Smooth. Our teams will help match your product and message to the most suitable stations.

This targeting is the main reason radio advertising achieves brilliant results time after time and why radio advertising effectiveness is high; radio has high reach but wastage is reduced as these people are targetted. 

The value for money is another reason radio is popular with many advertisers and companies.

Combination Marketing - Teaming Your Radio Adverts With Other Suitable Advertising Options

If you are looking to combine commercial radio with other options the below typically work well:  

  • Online - as people will hear your radio advert they are then likely to go online to find out more information. A strong online presence is, therefore, a good idea to supplement your campaign.

  • Social media marketing - similar to the benefits of online support, social media is often a good idea to use to back up your radio ads. 

  • Bus ads - bus ads or other forms of outdoor promotions are a great way to support radio, meaning that people get to see and hear what you have to offer. 

  • TV - the cherry on top of any marketing campaign - the power of TV is superb and can be targeted to regions making it more affordable than people often realise.

What Makes the Best Commerical Radio Adverts in Peak Dale?

With your radio advertising, you must remember that the audience can only listen to your product or service being described by words - they obviously can't see it -  this means you need to create an innovative advert which will catch their attention. Also, you don't have much time - 30 seconds is not a lot of time to describe what you are offering - so you must get to the point and be clear and concise. Sometimes catchy phrases and slogans work and a good sound bed can attract attention further - but also just being clear and direct is important; don't try and cram too much in.

To summarise we would say; try not to be too clever, as most listeners are doing other things - so get to the point and don't be too confusing. You just need to grab their attention and encourage them to seek more information at a later time.
