1. WHY RADIO?
High Amount of Time Spent Listening
Adults 18+ spend approximately nineteen and three- quarter hours
listening to radio each week, Monday through Sunday 6a-12m. *
Superior Target Ability
Radio formats are designed to reach persons in a specific age and
gender group. This allows you to craft your campaign to reach the
people you want to reach and maximize your investment.
Superior Listener Loyalty
Most persons identify with their favorite radio station and tend to
stay there all day long.
Portability
Radio reaches people wherever they are; at home, at work, or in the
car. Radio carries our message wherever your target audience goes.
Radio is a constant companion.
Reach & Frequency
Reach gets you there…frequency establishes you there.
Reach gains you a toehold…frequency gains you a foothold.
Reach is the introduction ...frequency is the sell.
*Fall 2006 Arbitron American Radio Trends Time Spent Listening Estimates Report
2. Why Radio For The Palm Springs Market
Of all the traditional advertising mediums for the Palm Springs market, radio is clearly the
choice when considering return on investment, reach, frequency, and target ability. Consider
the following statistics:
The Desert Sun has an average daily paid circulation of 41,372*
The Desert Sun penetrates only 31% of households.
Time/Warner Cable offers as their Intro Digital Cable programming
package of 140+ channels at a cost of $46.99 per month.
ADS (Alternative Delivery Systems) Direct TV and Dish Network have
dramatically cut into the number of households that have cable.
Broadcast television is very costly when the audience levels are high,
particularly in evening prime time. Also, broadcast television is
dependent upon cable to deliver a quality signal in the Palm Springs
market.
Outdoor advertising cannot impart details of what an advertiser does
nor can it create demand and target an audience.
Radio provides both reach and frequency, two necessary components of any successful
advertising campaign. Radio is also very targetable so an advertiser may reach the
consumers that are emotionally connected to their stations.
