TV gives everyone an image, but radio gives birth to a million brains.

We all know that It’s 21st century and the world is rising in advancement of technology but millions of us still adore and prefer radio. Radio is often referred achieve ‘theater of the mind’, due to its ability to create highly evocative images and stories in the mind of the listener. From its birth early in the 20th century, broadcast radio astonished and delighted the public by providing news and entertainment with an immediacy never before thought possible, but about 1945 the appearance of television began to transform radio’s content and role.

But again, the radio has grown to be a significant broadcasting platform in today’s society because of its pros, as we say ‘radio is still the king of the road’, most travelers prefer keeping their minds preoccupied, especially when caught in a traffic jam, or they are on a long, tiresome journey, Radio is a media you can take with you wherever you go, with the innovation of radio applications it is accessible in your phone, TV, Tablet etc. and the people who don’t have access to TV and other resource are able to get along with the news and entertainment through radio.

A new concept emerged on this medium i.e Radio Advertising which gave it a huge popularity.

 

 

What is Radio Advertising?

Addressing radio advertising may seem a bit silly in the 21st century where everyone has a great knowledge, but it’s a valid question because radio advertising is no longer limited to traditional broadcast technology.
