Who advertises on the Radio?

Big businesses advertise everywhere, from Google to billboards to buses, trains, and even newspapers. With super-large budgets, mass brand exposure is possible.

Unlike these big businesses, you might not have that luxury. You may not have the budget or the desire to deliver mass marketing. However, you may be keen to target specific audiences across the UK who are interested in your products or services.

Local Advertising

For small businesses looking to laser focus their marketing, radio offers targeted local advertising by region and city. Why waste your money advertising in London if you’re based in Edinburgh?

One of the advantages of working with Global is that we can be seen and heard everywhere. On-air, on Global Player and outdoor, we entertain and reach over 51 million individuals across the UK every week.

This means we have the latest and most complete data on who listens to our radio stations, when, where and for how long.

All of this data is used to support our advertisers. In fact, not only can we offer you data that can help improve the chances of your local radio advertising being a success, but we can even help produce the actual radio adverts.
