Radio Advertising Information

How much does a radio ad cost to produce?

There are a number of variables. Voice over artists charge more for metro release versus regional release. High profile actors & voice over artists will charge higher rates than standard voice over artists. We can write, produce and record your commercial from as little as $200+GST for regional and $400+GST for metro.

What are the available radio commercial ad lengths?

Most commercials are 30 or 15 seconds in duration.
Other lengths are

  • 60 seconds
  • 45 seconds
  • 10 seconds
  • 5 seconds

Note: stations charge a load for commercials that are not 30 seconds. EG a 15 second commercial is charged at up to 80% of a 30 second commercial.

How is a radio advertising campaign measured?

Reach refers to the unique audience that will hear your radio advertising campaign and is measured in thousands of people
Frequency refers to the average number of times the unique audience will hear your campaign. We recommend a minimum of 3+ reach for the listener to engage with your message.

What are

Prerecorded spots

They are prerecorded by either the station, the clients agency or the client and use a voice over artist and mixed with music, or no music (cold read). They are normally 30 or 15 seconds in length.

Live reads

These are read by the announcer from an approved script. A premium is charged for live reads as the announcer has an affinity with their audience and is ‘lending’ their voice to your brand. Generally used in combination with prerecorded spots and sponsorship credits.

Recorded live reads

These are recorded and played in place of a standard recorded ad. However they can not be played in the same time slot that the announcer has their show.

Sponsorship credits

Are 5 or 10 seconds in length and are a brand partnership between the program and the advertiser. EG ‘this news report is brought to you by The Media Planning Agency, number one for radio advertising rates in Sydney, search The Media Planning Agency.”

They are used in combination with prerecords and reads to boost reach and frequency and brand credibility.

Streaming Radio & Podcasts

Radio programs and podcasts are broadcast online and carry a completely different set of ads. We can target listeners just like we do online by topic of interest, by location, age and gender. This means less wastage and better ROI
