The Media Conjunction of Internet and Radio Commissioned by: The Radio Advertising Bureau & Internet Advertising Bureau Presented by Other lines of enquiry June 2005
The RAB & IAB conjunction project- a media ‘first’ • Interesting times, tension in the air – new IAB figures suggest Internet ad revenues have overtaken radio • Model of inter-media cooperation – balancing the needs of both parties in the survey and during PR communications • New media ecology – media ‘conjunctions’ and new glimpses of our broadband future • My first online survey
The RAB & IAB conjunction project- a media ‘first’ • A brief history of the future - new media ecology • Real and mutually beneficial media symbiosis or ‘conjunction’ • A new glimpses of our broadband future • My first online survey
My first online survey • Self-completion internet questionnaire • 20 minutes in duration • 523 respondents – all regular internet & radio users • Recruited from a panel of 250,000 respondents
Project aims & objectives • General belief that consumers combine radio with PC/ online usage • Does the parallel or secondary nature of radio complement the primary and solitary activity of surfing?
Project aims & objectives • How many people listen whilst online, why they combine these media and what are the opportunities for brands? • Define this media conjunction in terms of frequency, time and location of combined usage
Why are radio and online natural media partners? • Online and radio provide complementary rational and emotional consumer benefits • Online is perceived as a convenient channel for helping people find what they want, when they want it • Radio is perceived as offering the human touch, helping to shape the moods and rhythms of the day
Why are radio and online natural media partners? • Both mediums offer complimentary forms of social connectivity • Online allows people to stay in touch with immediate social networks and defined communities of interest • Radio keeps people in touch with local or broader communities of interest
Implications for advertisers • The research suggests radio can increase response to and interaction with online campaigns • People seem prepared to follow up online things they have heard about on-air • Search is one of the main online routes for following up on radio ads - radio ads implant ‘key-words’ in listeners minds

A brief history of the future… • Broadband is accounting for an increasing share of media time amongst its users • Broadband is ‘content neutral’ – it can, or soon will, deliver any AV content as well as established channels • Evidence suggests many leading media brands risk becoming ‘repertoire’ brands in the broadband space
