Radio advertising is the most economical and most effective method of advertising, generating more basn for your busk than TV, News Paper, Magazine or Bill Boards.  Within budget restraints, usine all media is a sound strategy, your message is received by your buying audience most effectively this way.  However, we know that every company has budget restraints and therefore you need to have a marketing plan tailored for your needs.  Let us help you.

Do you know why radio works better than all the other media?  Your sub-conscience hears and records radio commercials even when you are not paying attention.  Say you are riding in the car having a conversation with your companion, the radio is on but you are not listening, your sub-conscience hears, records and stores this information for latter use. 

Have you ever heard someone say "Someone told me this the best place to buy "Your Product or Service" but I don't remember who told me". That is because your ad on the radio told them!

Radio gives you the opportunity to deliver a simple but powerful message to a targeted group of consumers that may be interested in your products or services.  The public listens to your advertisement without thinking about it. 

That's the Secret of Radio Advertising.

What is Positioning and Why Does It Work

Positioning is the advertising concept of positioning your company, in the minds of your buying public, as the first company they think of when looking to buy your specific product or service.

Positioning works like this:

Quick - Who was the second man to walk on the moon?  Most people will remember who was first but not the second.  That is why it is so important to position your company as the first company people will think of when ready to buy. A positioning statement embedded in your ad's will position you company as the one set apart from others in the mind of the public.

Example:  Your Company "ABC Ford is the only 5 Star Ford Dealer in Middle and South Georgia."  Use this positioning statement for each of your profit centers i.e., Only 5 Star Service Center etc.
