TIMING FOR HEALTHYLIFE.NET RADIO VOICE ADS ARE GREAT!

According to the July 2016 Pew Research study: Today 81% get their news/information online rather than from traditional media. However, digital advertising is going in a different direction. According to eMarketer.com 2016 study, 63.2 million people will use ad blockers on their desktop/laptop PC and 20.7 million will use an ad blocker on their Smartphone. This is expected to increase over time. 

Did you know that talk radio listeners will not 'change that dial' during commercials as often as other radio OR TV formats? Add this to the increase in PC/mobile ad blocking and it is easy to understand that Voice Radio Ads are once again becoming, and will continue to grow, as one of the most influential and effective forms of advertising and branding that a company can buy - for all digital venues, including mobile - especially if the company wants their message heard.

A 2016 Neilsen Scarborough Report states that the 35-64 aged Radio Listener group spends 3X as much time listening to Internet Radio rather than traditional radio or even viewing TV.  However the majority of Traditional AM/FM radio caters to the mostly male, 12-34 age group.


HealthyLife.net has a great purchasing audience: 35-64 age group

70% female, 30% male - who are intelligent and affluent with higher disposable incomes. Listeners who are willing to pay for a product they believe in and encourage their family/friends to buy like products. 

HealthyLife.net has a 15 year niche market that reaches 1 million people a month in 130 countries who are interested in natural health, fitness, organic non-GMO products, healthy lifestyles, personal growth, social justice, science, technology and the environment. 

Put HealthyLife.net Radio in your 2017 digital advertising budget. Call 800-555-543 or 310-371-5444.

Internet Radio for Media Buyers and Advertisers

In this economy you are being asked to do more with less, so don’t let your clients miss out on one of the fastest growing markets in the media industry – Independent Internet radio. Here are a few reasons why Internet Radio is a great choice:


Missed Market of Engaged Listeners
According to the U.S. Census Bureau and Small Business Administration there are 21 million plus non-employer based businesses in the U.S. of which 52% are home based businesses. In comparison there are only 5milllion plus employer based U.S. businesses. More people are working on computers at home and will listen to internet radio in the background rather than be distracted watching TV or a video. Working alone, the innate need for social contact is met with an internet radio talk show. Listeners tend to feel they are not alone and have a chance to interact via telephone, text, email or social networks during live programs.

Higher Ad Receptivity
Studies have shown that people are hit with 3,000 -5,000 ads per day. This is usually too many for people to process so they tune most of them out – either physically, like a DVR, or mentally. However radio spot ads are less obtrusive because 1) they are expected. The host actually announces they are going to commercial break; 2) radio spots are sound bites, not visuals, which are less distracting; 3) radio is an emotional buy. It leaves the ‘pictures’ up to the mind of the listener who actually matches their ‘pictures’ directly to their needs. This does have more impact - think of the effect of the murder scene in ‘Psycho’ as compared to ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ where people get numb to the violence. 4) radio ads also have a better ‘top of mind’ recall experience; and 5) studies have shown that people will spend more time listening to radio ads, so they are more likely to remember and respond to them.

A Viable Growing Market 
Internet Radio continues to expand in growth unlike terrestrial radio which entered the internet market too late. Internet radio stations and networks can be, and many are, syndicated and simulcast on many distribution channels, creating a wider network appeal that reaches the listener wherever they are and whatever device they are using to listen. HealthyLife.net is available on internet, in-cars, smartphones, smartTVs, smartwatches, tablets, WiFi, private radio networks and more. Plus there may be  added ad shelf life, like HealthyLife.net has with on-demand archives, podcast downloads, and RSS feeds. In addition - Internet Radio’s Drive Time is longer from 8am – 5pm. What is really great is that usually all this ‘reach’ is included free with your initial buy, making your ROI more economically effective. 
 
A Full Digital Presence
Internet Radio can provide more than just radio spots for your clients. Banners, coupons, email blasts, social media mentions are just some of the added possibilities that come included with Internet Talk Radio ad campaigns giving your client a maximum digital presence exposure. 

A Niche Market Demographic
Internet radio listeners do tend to have higher, more disposable income levels. Dependent upon the Internet Talk Station’s niche market, demographic information like age groups, gender, marital status and other data will vary but can give you a more specific choice for your client’s product or service – which leads to a better ROI. For example where most traditional radio gets a young or male oriented demographic, HealthyLife.net reaches the higher purchasing power demographic of 80% women and the growing popular only natural health market.

Targeted Ad Placement
Imagine reaching local, national or global listeners all in one place. Internet Talk Radio allows media buyers to do this. Plus Internet Talk Radio Stations can target specific local, national and global audiences. Terrestrial radio has a small footprint with almost no local programming. 

Better ‘Straight From the Source’ Tracking
Internet Radio has more real stats available to them than terrestrial radio which use 3rd party extrapolated guesstimated numbers. Remember services like Google Analytics track website hits only but listener statistics can only come from the station's audio/video streaming server. The streaming server is independent of a website server and does NOT use website statistics.

There are no studies comparing terrestrial digital radio and independent internet radio. However to give you an example, when HealthyLife.Net Radio compared ‘apples to apples’ from the latest Triton Digital Media Study, HealthyLife.Net had 1700% more live session listeners than the top terrestrial digital radio stations using the exact same criteria. So don’t discount Independent Internet Radio stations – they are viable players in the media marketplace. 

With Independent Internet Radio there is also a way to justify actual real numbers and ROI with minimal effort on your part.  Your clients can actually set up a specific telephone number for ordering and for a banner link, set up a web landing page, with an unpublished link which can be placed on the radio site so clients can track their own statistics – which takes you out of the numbers game all together! 

Independent Internet Talk Radio is not a replacement to traditional media but IS a viable addition. It’s a new marketplace that can produce for you now and is destined to only increase in the years to come.

HealthyLife.Net Radio Network is a 14-year young Internet Radio Network reaching over 1 million monthly listeners in 130 countries through its 62+ syndicated/simulcast distribution channels and, in case you haven't guessed, we do provide economical full digital presence ad campaigns for media buyers.

Google Analytics DOES NOT Track Radio Listeners

Google Analytics does a great job at analyzing data for website stats. However Google Analytics tracks only their own Google search engine results which does not include Bing, Yahoo, Alexa or other search engine data statistics. They also do not, and most times, cannot track a streaming media listening audience.

Here's why...Listener numbers come from an audio streaming server. This audio server is not a webpage on a website but actually a separate data stream, usually housed on a separate server from the radio stations website server.  It is linked ON a website page but as in the case of HealthyLife.net Radio the radio button link is on almost every page of our 60+ page website and not on just on one Landing page.

Google Analytics CAN track how many people come to a website page that contains a link to the audio stream but unfortunately that is not always the actual listener data. Actual listener data can only come from the audio server stream data.  

HealthyLife.net also has 62+ syndicators/simulcast distribution channels that pick up our LIVE audio stream and rebroadcast it out to their many listeners - but to our audio search engine each one looks like just one listener. In reality these 62 distribution channels could be accessing 100s, 1,000s or 1,000,000 more listeners a day per channel.  Think the numbers are high? Here's an example - Microsoft's Radio Tuner, which HealthyLife.net is 1 of 68 talk radio stations is available to 1 billion worldwide internet devices a day. 1% of listenership would provide HealthyLife.net with 1 million more listeners a day but again to our streaming server they look like only 1 listener.

Podcast and on-demand listening all have different criteria that is tracked differently in an audio streaming server.  Again website hit analysis is not the same  as tracking websites so unfortunately using Google Analytics to rate Listener Audience size is not a valid measurement.

RADIO: The Purchasing Power of Women

Targeting the female demo should be good for radio revenue. According to Forbes magazine, women represent the largest market opportunity in the world. Globally, they control $20 trillion in annual consumer spending. In the next five years, it is expected that this number will rise to nearly $30 trillion dollars.

In the U.S., women have enormous control, and it's increasing. Reports range from $5-15 trillion, with Marketing Zeus citing sources that $7 trillion is contributed by women in the U.S. in consumer and business spending. Fleishman Hillard Inc. estimates that women will control two-thirds of the consumer wealth in the U.S. over the next 10 years.

Women handle the bulk of purchasing decisions for everyday items like groceries and clothing - even for those items targeted at men. In fact, 50% of products marketed to men are actually purchased by women. That's why items for men are often marketed with women in mind, as well. In addition to being responsible for most of the day-to-day purchases, women are also heading-up or influential in large ticket purchases like cars, homes and appliances.

And more than 70% of Boomer couples are dual earners. Thanks to Boomer women, these two-paycheck families bring home a lot more money. Married couples account for 82% of households with income of $100,000 or more.

Do you understand them?

"One of the big mistakes companies make is assuming women are all about the warm and fuzzy, and they're not," says Marti Barletta, founder of TrendSight and "high priestess of marketing to women." "They want all the same things men do and then some."

Anna Shaw from Smart Design, a design and innovation company with a lab that focuses on female consumers. told Inc. magazine that companies flounder when they interpret women as "smaller, softer humans." "Companies need to understand who she is, what are her emotions, what are her values," says Shaw.

Gabe Rosenberg of the brand and content strategy company Contently, says brands need to smarten up about women and engage with them to understand the nuances and expansive definition of who women and men are in America. "The heart of the matter," he explains, "is that brands, marketers, and advertisers all need to be in conversation with women about what they buy, what they respond to, and what will encourage them to be loyal to a brand."

  

WOMEN ARE BIG SPENDERS

Women aged 50+ have a combined net worth of $19 trillion. Women aged 50-70 are the largest segment of female consumers and are by far the biggest spenders. Prime Timers have higher incomes, greater net worth and stronger spending than younger adults. They have the freedom and disposable income to make purchases.

PASSING THE TORCH

Like Boomer women before them, today's young women are earning college degrees and set to transform the work place and, in turn, the marketplace. According to the Harvard Business Review, women are obtaining higher education degrees at rates higher than men. It also reports that the 1 billion women in the workforce will grow to 1.2 billion in the next five years.

According to Muhtar Kent, Women control over $20 Trillion in world-wide spending.

Women have tremendous spending power in America today-and it's growing. Market estimates about their total purchasing prowess varies, ranging anywhere from $5 trillion to $15 trillion annually.

With statistics like this, are you tapping into the female marketplace that is available through HealthyLife.net?  To see the super saver rates offered go to:  <http://www.healthylife.net/RadioShow/AdvertisingA.htm> and advertise on radio!  You may have been missing the very market that has been looking for what you do and supply.  Don't ever under estimate the power of women!

State of the Media: How America Listens to Radio

Radio, one of the 1st in original mass media, continues to play a big part in the lives of Americans everywhere-with 245 million Americans listening weekly of which194 million tune in through digital internet radio. That means more than 91% of Americans (age 12 or older) tune in each week.

In today's rapidly evolving world of consumer choice and technological advancement, audio becomes an even more integral part of our lives. Internet Radio is a trusted companion all throughout the day and not just in 'drive time' like traditional radio. Although traditional radio has taken away local radio in the U.S., internet radio networks like HealthyLife.net have integrated local based radio into their program schedules. This gives their local community a voice and a specified audience.

For advertisers, radio delivers a mass audience in real-time across markets large and  small that is highly qualified;  HealthyLife.net Radio also delivers the advertisers message after real-time delivery with on demand listening and podcast downloads. The vast majority of radio listeners are in the workforce and with Internet Radio they listen at work. More than three quarters of the national adult audience works full or part time during the week.

How Big Is Radio's Reach?

It's no secret, radio's reach is unprecedented. According to the recent All Access Q2 2015 Audio Today Report 245 million Americans aged 12 years old and older tuned to radio during an average week. However, while the bigger markets often grab the headlines, small and medium markets are still viable because you can reach them all at the same time on Internet Radio which goes beyond the traditional radio 50 -500 watt footprint to cover local, national and the world.

The report also noted that the majority of consumers in these markets are connecting to the radio and spending a lot of time listening as well. More than 86% of consumers tune in during the week and spend more than 15 hours of their media time with radio.

However, here's a tip... remember in advertising it is not how many people you reach, it's how many times you reach the same person - and with HealthyLife.net's 14 year loyal and growing audience, as a HealthyLife.net advertiser, you are always maximizing your reach. To see how a HealthyLife.net ad can help you - email: ad@healthylife.net.

Why Listen to Positive Radio?

Why would anyone listen to positive radio? For starters, good news, good talk, good vibes and good programming. How much of your day includes ''good?' How much good could good do in your life on a daily basis? Um, like maybe turn your day and life around? The word positive means: a good, affirmative, or constructive quality or attribute (Source: Webster's Dictionary).  I'll have a second helping of that please.

The goal at HealthyLife.net is to provide an oasis from the negativity we're bombarded with in everyday life. Positive programming can be your go-to place for good talk, good news and good vibes!

Maximum Strength Positive Thinking

Make your life better with maximum strength positive listening.  You have a lot of things to discuss with your mind, and maximum strength positive listening and thinking guides your mind to a positive neighborhood. If you don't like what you hear when your mind talks to you, you have the power to change the message. Although the wheel of change turns slowly, it always turns in the direction of what you put into your mind. Invest in a new life now and tune in to positive listening and watch your world change because of what you put into your mind.

Programmer's Manual for Your Mind

Learn how to program your mind with a positive operating system. If you don't program your mind, other people will. For some people, walking through this world often feels like mortal mental combat, and their mind is ground zero.

If you let your culture, the media, the government, politicians and media do the programming, you will be in real trouble. You will not be running your own mind. They will be running it. Instead, you can choose the encoding for your mind; start reprogramming your mind today and listen to www.HealthyLife.net

Learn How To Stop Depression and How To Win a Positive Mind.

It's true! Depression is rampant today.  The challenge people face in depression is to change the way they think. If we want to change the way we think and feel, we are going to have to change our inner dialogue. We are going to have to talk to ourselves in a different manner. The action towards a positive mind is created on the plane of focus. In order to break the back of depression, we can learn how to persistently and consistently control our mental focus. Zero tolerance to negativity means to enjoy and engage in positive media and radio.

Positive radio is straight up positive thinking. Each HealthyLife.net show contains at least one powerful idea that you can put into your mind and make a part of your life. The show's and hosts are professional and exceptional so you won't have to waste valuable time trying to find the good stuff.

The wheel of change always turns in the direction of your mind, and it's time to turn your life in a new direction. Your mind is waiting to hear from you, so choose right now to send it to an optimist and constructive radio network.  It is there you will hear positive messages, truth and ideas.

Radio: The Medium With The Biggest Reach

You wouldn't know it from all the media coverage focused on streaming video but according to an April 2015 national Edison Research and Triton Digital survey found that 119 million people, listen on a weekly basis to online radio. Now a recent Nielsen data shows internet radio actually has the most reach among American media consumers.

Traditional Radio is a local medium found in radios and cars with a local footprint. In comparison, Online Digital Radio can be found on the Internet and well, wherever and however you can get the Internet - In Cars, Smartphones, Computers, Tablets, SmartTVs, SmartWatches, private radio networks and it is found locally, nationally and globally.

Thus supplying much more program diversity and listener reach.

Earlier this month, Amazon held its first global sale event called Amazon Prime Day. Afterwards, Cumulus/Westwood One commissioned an IPSOS study to determine how effective radio, TV and online advertising were at driving purchases. The results may surprise you as much as they surprised me:

Of those exposed to radio ads, 52% made a purchase. That compares with 48% of people who saw ads online and 39% who saw TV ads. (So if you were wondering about whether or not you should contact HealthyLife.net about your advertisement needs, let this statistic be your guide to a resounding yes.)

Marketers are increasingly focused, as we know, on targeting specific audiences. In that regard, these days on traditional radio there is a limited variety of radio formats, especially in talk radio. However internet radio is a specific dream target for advertisers.

It's quite clear that your advertising budget should all be paying more attention to internet radio and its targeted reach. It's doing the job with expert efficiency.

HealthyLife.net does a great job of not only presenting your healthy life product or service to affluent buyers but fostering your positive corporate self-image --and HealthyLife.net is respected. It only takes advertising partners who are in alignment with its mission of all natural health and products/services that help people have a happy, healthy life.

Does Media Define Gender Roles?

by Debbi Dachinger

In an attempt to simplify the complicated nature of men and women, society has allowed media to define and otherwise perpetuate gender stereotypes that dumb down the human experience. And, in its attempt to elevate one gender, denigrate the other. From books and magazines to television programs to radio and films to video games and online communities, media drives our understanding of gender. As a woman, still in a predominantly men-make-more money based society, I am hyper aware of the influence media can have on us all.

By presenting us with images and voices of women, men, and relationships, media advances the ideals of what is desirable in women and men. These ideals are, at best, suffocating stereotypes because they present society with how men and women-and children-are "supposed" to be. But there are small victories that suggest some of us have had enough of the status quo.

There will always be a fraction of people who refuse to act as equal partners in any relationship and/or work-life situation. However, I hold out hope that those of us who value the men and women-and children-in our lives can unite in our efforts to champion a realistic depiction of gender roles.

According to CriticalMediaProject.org the first step in effecting lasting change is to start the conversation. Nurture your voice. Speak out if you notice media's portrayal of men being incapable of being equal partners with the women in their lives. www.criticalmediaproject.org/cml/topicbackground/gender

 

In March 2015, at the United Nations on this subject, came this: "In moving forward on the post-2015 goals, advancing gender equality was as much a political as a personal agenda, said the conversation's moderator, Noelene Nabulivou, speaking on behalf of Diverse Voices and Action for Equality (DIVA), the Executive Committee of Development Alternatives with Women for a New Era (DAWN) and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN-Women) Asia Pacific Regional Civil Society Advisory Group.  Achieving gender equality and empowerment required stretching and breaking gender stereotypes, including for women, lesbian,

gay, bisexual and transgender people, she said."  http://www.un.org/press/en/2015/wom2031.doc.htm

HealthyLife.Net Years Ahead of Emerging Positive Media Curve

In 2002 HealthyLife.net, a pioneer in positive media, commenced its positive radio talk network to provide a balance against the negativity, sensationalism and controversy of traditional media. It was definitely what people were trending towards because today, by 3rd party analysis, HealthyLife.net has 1700% more listeners than any traditional digital radio station.

One of HealthyLife.net's purposes was to pave the way for other positive media. Recently a wave of media alternatives focused on presenting a positive, balanced view of the world are now coming into play. HealthyLife.net is ecstatic at the possibility that traditional media is finally beginning to question their negativity and its result.

According to the BBC website Charlie Beckett, former editor of Channel 4 News and director of journalism think-tank POLIS, highlighted positive and solution-focused news sections in the likes of traditional media and the rise of alternatives such as Positive News, (HealthyLife.net started a Weekday Positive News Show in 2007) as a challenge to traditional news values. Beckett said that there is an ingrained belief in mainstream media that news has to be about something broken, violent or disturbing, which runs so deep that it's almost the unconscious of the craft. He went on to potently share: Journalists are questioning the fundamentals of news itself. But change is beginning to stir at a deeper level, he said. Even the toughest of mainstream newsrooms are aware that the old editorial certainties are being questioned.

In the Huffington Post Positive News editor, Seán Dagan Wood, is quoted as saying he believed that relentless bad news was leaving audiences feeling disempowered "We are reaching peak negativity in the news," he said. "The overall narrative that the media creates is no longer serving us and it's increasingly at odds with our evolving sense of who we are, what works and what's possible."

According to Gawker.com Arianna Huffington, founder of the Huffington Post, recently

announced a global editorial initiative in this space: "If we don't cover positive stories, ideally with the same relentlessness and the same resources that we cover negative stories, we're basically not giving our readers the full truth," said Huffington. "We're giving them a very jaundiced view of human nature."  Interestingly, stories that reinforce faith in human nature are shared three times more on the Huffington Post than the combined average of all other sections on the site.

According to The United Kingdom's PositiveNews.org, statistics show that audiences are fatigued by the repetition of stories of misery and violence in foreign news.  "The news agenda as it stands has disturbing consequences," warned Dr Denise Baden, who has researched social psychology in relation to the news. "It leads to helplessness. It leads to a lack of agency. It leads to mental health issues," she said.

In today's ever changing world, reliable ethical media has a responsibility to expose positive stories and potential solutions. It's not enough to just inform people about what's going wrong because it fosters a negative focus without balance. Unfortunately nowadays  this is the way in which traditional media chooses to report. However, HealthyLife.net is not part of THAT paradigm.

Marketing agencies are expected to spend a total of $540 billion worldwide on advertising in 2015, led by a 15.7 percent growth in digital media. Yet advertising dollars in traditional television, newspapers and magazines are either in decline or show stunted gains. This offers some proof that traditional media is not maintaining its audience and thereby not satisfying its ad clients needs. Ostrich in the sand, just 'make the money' business media executives are missing the old standard universal media law that does maintain audience and ad dollars - CONTENT IS KING. Combine that with the majority of people not wanting all that sensationalism, negativity and controversy and Positive Media stands out with its content AND consistent, growing audience.

HealthyLife.net is the King and Queen of Positive Media leading their audience to new ideas, solutions and possibilities of a happy, healthy life. With its live, on-demand and podcast download shows and 62 channels of syndicated/simulcast distribution to 130 countries and all 50 U.S. States, it has a massive audience. The time is right to consider advertising or sponsoring a show on HealthyLife.net's All Positive Media. So for a positive experience please consider us for your next advertising buy.  Contact John at 310-483-1436, ad@healthylife.net.

HealthyLife.net: More than positive radio - a positive way to life.

A Positive Talk Radio Review: HealthyLife.net Radio Network

by James Bean

In a crazy, stressed out over-caffeinated world of broadcasting where all-too-often creativity is stifled and actually sometimes even punished, there is a unique radio network called HealthyLife.Net with impressive demographics, generating web-traffic, streaming audio and much enthusiasm these days, featuring programming with a positive Vision for the world --- the way radio should be and can be.

Launched September 1st, 2002, HealthyLife.net  --- The Positive Radio Network, was founded by Linda Mackenzie. HealthyLife.net is a 24 hour a day holistic network based in Manhattan Beach, California featuring all-positive and healthy talk shows by a variety of hosts including: Guy Finley, Dr. Bernie Siegel, Jonathan Goldman, and programs on: holistic health, wellness, sports, fitness, diet, peace, the environment, spirituality (including 'Spiritual Awakening Radio'),  self-empowerment, inspiration, motivation, relationships, family/children's/women and men 's issues, psychology, new thought, awareness, meditation, news, music and numerous call-in shows featuring well-known guests and authors.

The advent of HealthyLife.net in a very real sense represents a turning-point in broadcasting, and you could say, the "legalization", so to speak in our media-culture, of spirituality as a subject worthy of coverage and discussion on the airwaves in a serious sort of way. For many, HealthyLife.net is the fulfillment of a Vision for a more meaningful, constructive right-use of broadcasting, a yearning by many for a very long time, filling a real void in our media wasteland ........ that missing holistic channel we've been searching for. We have scores of other kinds of radio and media --- why not a channel for spirituality and well-being!!?

From the Mission Statement of HealthyLife.Net

"To utilize radio to encourage a positive world community towards positive thought and action, elimination of fear and the concept that we are all one here for the greater good of all.

"WHO & WHY WE ARE:  HealthyLife.net  --- The Positive Radio Network is dedicated to enhancing Positive Health & Spirit! Everyone can use a little more positive energy in their lives and we believe POSITIVE programming helps point the way to a healthier, happier life and a better planet. All positive emotion and positive action comes from positive thought. Positive thought is the most powerful tool we have to create the reality that we want. Most media outlets provide fear-based, sensationalized programs that constantly assault us (consciously and subconsciously) with negativity..... To our best ability we promise .... ALL POSITIVE PROGRAMMING that can help your life, make you feel good and encourages our world to be a more positive place.
