A first for radio • Competition to design a system to evaluate radio advertising • Show every advertiser how their radio campaigns performed • Optimise the creative impact of radio commercials • We won!
What’s ground-breaking about RadioGAUGE? • Isolates the radio effect • Benchmarking • Creative impact assessment • Robust data, efficient system
Sample structure: NATIONAL or REGIONAL • Project design: TEST & CONTROL • Sample size: 800 adults 16-54 • Number of waves: 26+ • Campaigns tested per wave: 3
Isolating the radio effect • Brand awareness • Brand perceptions • Ad awareness • Brand consideration • 5Is creative score COMPARED TO Non-listeners to Commercial radio* Commercial Radio Listeners* *Matched GB representative samples • Red = benchmarked
why test & control? • Tried and tested = low risk (200 radio campaigns tested in the UK) • Very cost efficient – 3 campaigns tested per wave with high sample sizes • Isolates radio's impact – cuts through multimedia advertising effects • Low effort – simple logistics, minimal input from advertisers & agencies
principles we learnt the hard way... • Keep it simple at first – focus on one type of campaign • Get that right and then move on to measure other campaign types • More campaigns tested = better cost efficiency • More advertisers debriefed = better revenue / ROI performance • Bigger samples give better results • If we keep it simple and cost efficient it will run for longer
