Radio Advertising

[weighit]

Recently moved to a new town, about 30,000 here and with the surounding towns about 100,000 folks. There are many radio stations I can listen to but have narrowed in on a conservitive one that is all talk radio. Many local businesses advertise in 30 second spots. I have had the pleasure of meeting some of these business owners and letthem know I heard their spot. I then ask how the radio is doing for their business? Everyone said they are or have seen a tremoundous increase in business and for the cost they are paying per month is a no brainer. The one fellow gets other local business owners that use his auto repair shop to to give in their own words how they have been treated and what a great service this shop provides to the community. The battery shop i was in yesterday said his business has increased 40% in the past 2 years after using the radio station. Are any of you advertising this way?

We have stayed away from radio because in our market it's too broad a reach, we market to an area closer to the shop. However, we have started a small budget with a popular radio show on a Christian radio station where both of the DJ's are our customers, and we are getting a good response. In you're smaller market area, I would think it could be effective and worth doing.
