Advertising on the Radio
What is Radio Advertising?
Radio advertising is buying commercials air time to promote products or services in radio stations as live read, onsite broadcasting events, sponsorships, or traditionally Produced Spots. Advertising on the radio is a gigantic opportunity for brands to convey their brand message to a loyal radio audience.
Buying Radio Advertising
There are three main ways that companies buy advertising for radio: via individual radio show’s sales department, via network, or the most efficient means of going through an agency. At Radioactive Media, we are strong proponents in the economies of scale associated with placing ads through an experienced radio ad agency.
ROI Based Radio Advertising
- As of early 2019, 67% of Americans ages 12 and older had listened to online radio in the past month, while 60% had listened in the past week. This is up slightly from 64% and 57%, respectively, in 2018, continuing online radio’s steady year-over-year growth.
- Online radio listening in cars, such as listening to AM/FM stations online or streaming other online audio, remained steady after years of increase. In 2019, 41% of Americans ages 12 and older have ever listened to online radio in a car using a phone, up from just 5% in 2010.

Why RadioActive Media?
When working with an agency you gain the power of collective bargaining. You can get valuable packages that are only available through preferred agents.
Many networks sell bundles that appear to give more spots, when in reality they do not air when the client wishes. RadioActive Media has long-term relationships in the industry that can save you money and assure the best results.
RadioActive Media’s hands-on approach includes overseeing the scheduling of commercials to ensure that our clients’ spots are running at optimal times – during their business hours, or when they will be most effective. We have the experience and knowledge to assist our clients to “scale-up” their campaigns as they become more successful from integrating radio into their marketing mix.
