Talk radio personalities embrace technology.  More radio stations and radio personalities locally and nationally have mobile apps.

If you miss Dennis Miller, you can download the app and listen to his show at a later time.  Advertising is included along with the live reads.  

The app replays the show from the day before and comes with an alarm to remind you next Dennis Miller live show. 

We tested it and the audio is crisp, clear with no buffering issues. There is a contact icon for emailing or calling the show.  Social media links for Twitter and Facebook for Dennis Miller are another feature of the app.  Integration is great, listening to Dennis’ show and reading Tweets. 

Talk radio has been the most interactive and was engaging their fan base way before social media.  It is no surprise that radio personalities embrace mobile technology to stay connected.  

At RadioActive Media we embrace mobile technolog y through Radio Text Messaging (RTM) We use texting, mobile videos and coupons.  Broadcast the message using radio and complete the connection through mobile devices.  Advertisers can measure the response to campaigns not only by time and programming, but also user area codes (and phone number), number of occurrences, and soon, even location.

For more information radio advertising and Radio Text Messaging check out our web page and read our blogs; 

The Powerful Combination of DR Radio and Text Messaging which was published in Response Magazine May 2010.

Meet Marc Jacobs, Jeff Pollak and Steve Pollak of RadioActive Media at the Search Engine Strategies Show Booth #212 in San Francisco

No medium is an island. Not any more anyway. RadioActive Media will be at the Search Engine Strategies Show (SES) in San Francisco to make just that point. Specialists in direct response radio, the RadioActive Media team members are pros who work to drive traffic with performance values to websites, smart phones and call centers. 

Radio advertising enhances Internet browsing by 52% according to a study by the Radio Advertising Bureau, so it’s a great way to get in front of a mass audience that can be targeted and push large volumes of visitors to take any of a number of actions: to text a message in order to get a coupon or discount, to make a call, to find a store location or website and more. The only limitation is your imagination. Technology continues to offer new opportunities all the time. We thrive on being the cutting-edge pros who provide strategies right through to the tactical details of implementation.

SES sessions on search optimization and social media speak to the marketer looking to stretch a dollar. Radio has proven to be 4 times more cost effective than any other media when it comes to browsing. Our core business model is to craft campaigns with testing strategies with a low cost of entry and quick and easy scalability. Benchmarking test results after a 1-2 week test keeps the cost per lead or per order successfully in check week to week for the life of the program. Results measurement is tracked down to the time a spot ran or a text message was received, accounting for every media dollar. 

We’re proud of the many opportunities we can combine to make the most of radio ad dollars:

Remnant Advertising Saves You Money

Advertising Budget Challenged? Co-op Dollars Could be the Answer

Radio Promotions Worth 3 Times their Cost

Per Inquiry Advertising

Cross Promotion Campaigns – Everybody Wins 

Our Case Studies will show you how our clients use radio in concert with mobile marketing to drive traffic to websites and reduce cost-per-leads by 75%. Our campaign for a well-known remote data storage company’s iPhone app hit the Top Grossing and Top Paid Apps lists. 

Attendees who stop by Booth #212 will mix business and pleasure by playing Guitar Hero and entering to win a Carnival cruise and any of a number of prizes like radio memorabilia. Hope to see you there!

SES Expo San Francisco August 2010

You may wonder why a leading direct response radio agency would have a booth at a search engine marketing expo… 

The answer is simple. As cutting edge marketers, we came to the realization, long ago, that no successful medium of marketing operates alone. 

Exposure to radio advertising boosts brand browsing by an average 52%. (Source: RAB)

 Our clients use direct response radio for its mass market appeal to targeted audiences. We drive the traffic to websites, call centers, and mobile phones. The synergy of interconnected media continues to grow. That complexity needs professionals to build, own and maintain the process, so the precious marketing dollar is not misspent.

 Radio is on average 4x more cost-effective at stimulating brand browsing than other media combined. Over half of browsing takes place in 24 hours.

We understand the complementary nature of radio and online. Extensive campaign pre-planning gets answers to all the choices of where to drive traffic, how it will be measured, and how to make the whole process simpler. With that being said, we handle the details, so that on day 2 of the radio campaign we can look at results and begin the analysis process, thus leading to the small tweaks, which improve results.

Consumers use the Internet and radio at the same time. Almost half listen to radio while surfing. (RAB)

Please ask us about the great fun we have working with talk radio hosts like Howard Stern, Michael Savage and others, who drive traffic for our clients.

Here’s what Howard Stern says about us: Howard Stern on RadioActive Media

Ask us about the bonus value we get by building radio promotions that are 3-4x their cost for our clients

Reading our Case Studies will give you an idea how we led the way in marketing iPhone paid apps to the top of the charts!

We love creative ideas and brainstorming. We’ve taken start up companies and turned them into brand-names, that were then bought out by their competitors.

RadioActive Media looks forward to meeting you at booth 212.
