There is also another article "Advertisement Advice" from Susan that she shares with us some great tips and techniques for getting the most out of our advertising. Here is a snippet of that article.

----------------------------

What about TV & radio ads?
• 75% of workers listen to radio at work or in the car.
• The average person watches 7 hours of TV a day.

Radio works best as a message reinforcement in combination with other media. Again, repetition is key, mention the company name and phone number 3-5 times in the message.

IMPACT! Strategy: Radio stations are required by theFCC to air PSAs (public service announcements).

When sponsoring a non-profit or community event, youth sports, or civic and service organization, consider asking for a PSA. To maximize air exposure, purchase some commercial time when requesting PSA air time.When participating in a community event, offer to be a spokesperson on local daytime TV shows.
