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.

Radio: Listening to HealthyLife.Net is Part of What Everyone is Doing



by Debbi Dachinger

It's probably not news to you that traditional FM radio is dying out at an increasing rate. This trend has been taking place for the last two decades thanks to a string of events that have set us up for a brave new world of streaming Internet radio.

The demise of radio can be traced back to the 1990s. Before 1992, a company could not own more than two stations per market, and the Telecommunications Act of 1996 completely took the shackles off ownership. Clear Channel went on a buying spree, purchasing more than 70 other media companies, plus individual stations. It now owns 850 radio stations in the U.S.

This caused a switch from locally-driven programming to corporate-directed programming. In the old days, the program manager of the station decided what was played. A smart Program Manager knew their local area and played what the area liked or was open to hearing. Now, that's no longer allowed. Playlists come from corporate HQ and there is no deviation from it.

The result is listeners are switching off in a big way. This past April, the radio business got its first wakeup call: Internet Radio is now the largest radio station in Los Angeles. L.A., the city of so many aspiring artists, the city with more recording studios and music stores than upermarkets, the city with radio stations that gave us super DJs like Ryan Seacrest and the now deceased Casey Kasem.

But a survey by Media Audit estimated that 1.9 million people in Los Angeles listened to  Internet Radio between September and October of 2011 while Seacrest's station, KIIS-FM, had 1.4 million listeners during the same time period. Now in 2015 Internet Radio has grown even greater.

Radio Guest Tips



by Debbi Dachinger

Here are a few bits of info to understand before you are interviewed on radio which
will prove to be invaluable during and after the interview:

 - When calling about establishing your first interview - remember to be pleasantly persistent. If you do not receive a call-back after the 2nd call, send a book cover postcard, give them time to receive it and then try calling again.

 - Create great relationships with everyone involved in the radio show and station. On one occasion I was having trouble getting to the producer. After several lovely conversations with the scheduler, I sent her a signed copy of my book and hinted at passing it by the producer. The day after she received it the producer called and booked me as a guest.

- If you cannot get a positive response after the 3rd email, give it up, shout, "Next!" and email someone else. Try telephoning or snail mail that is getting a better response these days.

 - Producer's name. The producer usually books the show, however you should try to talk to the host if at all possible to get a feel for how the interview will go.

- When you get a hold of the producer or have booked the show here are some things to ask about or keep in mind...
            1) Where can people listen to the radio show?
            2) Will they call you or will you be calling them? What phone number? Do they have an emergency number? Be sure the producer has your direct phone number and be sure you know exactly when they will be calling you or if you will be calling them.
            3 )What is their complete address, office phone number
            4) What is the Show name and the Host name. Verify spelling and pronunciation. It is also a good idea to have this in front of you during the interview so you can refer to the show and to the host(s) by name. Ask them if there will there be more than one host or guest on at the same time.

After Your Radio Interview - Now What?




by Debbi Dachinger

After your radio interview consider writing a thank you note to the show host. If inclined, send a small, meaningful gift to the host, for example a gift certificate to Starbucks (if they drink coffee) or something that is heartfelt. A handwritten note is nice because the radio host has given you free marketing and publicity for you or your business and may have  introduced you to a whole new audience that you may not have had before. Most times hosts conduct interviews that shine a light on you, and sometimes, on controversial stations, they try to deride you - but in any event you have received free publicity since most hosts do not charge for interviews - and any publicity really is good publicity.


One thing you can do, if the show is  not copyrighted AND you have the show/station's permission, is to put the audio interview on your web site. You can edit the audio into the best five minutes or feature the entire radio show. This allows prospective clients and other radio or TV stations to get a taste of what you have to offer on media - so they may want to book you for their shows.

What's next? Book your next radio appearance on another show. Keep building on your skills and enjoy the next host, station and program.  Just remember to honor the station's guest policies because most stations limit how many times you can be a guest on their network in a certain period of time. So pick your future shows wisely and don't forget to have fun!
