How much does radio advertising cost?

Answer 1

Each station sets its own rates. The cost will depend primarily on how many ads you want to run (the more you run, the lower the price per ad; like buying in bulk at the supermarket), and at what time of day. Other variables may also apply. You need to speak with an advertising executive (or preferably the sales manager) to get a cost quote.

Answer 2

on our local radio station it depends on Duration Length Day station They will normally make a deal with you but if your looking for a single advertisment during the week for two mins. Your looking roughly at 30$$. But like I said its all over the place, but 30 $$ here for 2 min. one advertisment. I cannot imagine how much it is on a big Radio station. such as the Q107. Hope you find out

Here are a few of the things the cost of radio advertising will depend on:

-- How many people live in the area covered by a particular radio station.

-- How many of those people actually listen to that station.

-- The age break-down of the people who listen to it.

-- Whether you'll write the commercial copy yourself, or have the radio station

write it for you.

-- Whether you'll produce the commercial yourself and deliver a finished, studio-quality

tape to the station, or have them record it for you.

-- Whether you'll voice the commercial, or have one of the radio station staff

voice it.

-- Whether or not you care what time of day the station airs your commercial.

-- If you care what time it runs, then what time of day you want it to run.

-- Whether you want to run 10-second, 15-second, 30-second, or 60-second

commercials, or some mix of different announcements of different lengths.

-- How many total spot announcements you're willing to buy all at one time.

Here are a couple of ballpark benchmarks that might be useful to you as you

calibrate your budgetary thinking on the topic of broadcast advertising:

-- This contributor was employed as the "morning-drive DJ" forty years ago,

playing 'MOR' music on a national network affiliate in a top-30 market in the

midwest, where a package of 30-second spots would be written and produced

in-house, and aired ROS between 6 AM and 9 PM, for $3.00 a play.

-- As a whole, the TV commercials aired during Super Bowl XLV (2011) cost the

advertisers roughly $100,000 per second of air-time ... after production costs.
