Sales: Why Are SPONSORSHIPS Better Value Than Advertising?

Posted on 29 March 202327 March 2023 By earlp

In my book, sponsorships are better value than advertising – most of the time.

Why?

Because they offer a more integrated and long-term approach to promoting a brand or product, identifying a brand name over time with a particular show segment, show or radio station.

Here are just 4 reasons why sponsorships can be more valuable than traditional radio advertising (and yes this post does sort of follow on from yesterday’s Promotions post):

1.              More targeted audience: Sponsorships often allow brands to target a specific audience that is already interested in a particular activity or event. This targeted audience is more likely to be receptive to the brand’s message, leading to higher engagement and conversion rates.

2.              Greater exposure: Sponsorships offer greater exposure to the brand than traditional advertising, as the brand’s name is associated with a particular event or activity, often for an extended period. This can lead to increased brand awareness, recognition, and credibility.

3.              Authenticity: Sponsorships can create a more authentic connection between the brand and the audience, as the brand is seen as supporting an activity or event that the audience is passionate about. This can create a more positive image for the brand and strengthen the relationship with the audience.

4.              Cost-effective: Sponsorships can be more cost-effective than traditional advertising as they often offer more extended exposure for the brand at a lower cost. This is particularly true for smaller brands that may not have the budget for large-scale advertising campaigns.

Overall, sponsorships offer a more audience personalized or targeted, they are a cost-effective approach to promoting a brand or product – making them a valuable alternative to traditional radio advertising commercials.

If you have a client who is reluctant to advertise – try them on sponsorship first and see how many times they get told by their customers “heard their ad on the radio” when they don’t have an ad.

This is an added bonus and one that many clients don’t see – until it happens to them.
