Recorded Adverts
Pre-recorded campus radio adverts are a great way to get your brand known by students. Increase brand recognition through your own unique sound and inclusion of jingles and other trademarks.
On-air Interviews
Interviews allow you to go into far more detail than the usual 30-second advert or live read. Go into greater depth about your product or service and earn the trust of listeners without sounding like an obvious advert.
Live Reads
Leverage the trust that students have with their campus radio stations and get the radio presenters to read out your scripted message on air. Delivered in the students own voice, this format can earn more trust.
Radio Competitions
Everyone likes a freebie and students most of all. Entice students to engage with your brand through competitions on student radio. We can help you set up engaging and fun competitions that get noticed.
Aside from our standardised offerings above, we are also able to set up custom offerings with particular stations.
Leverage the local campus know-how of the stations to run an on-campus activation or outside broadcast.
Social Media
Leverage the power of campus radio social followings. Student stations have strong interaction with their audiences and enjoy strong support on social media.
Campus Activations
Make use of the local campus know-how and expertise of the student radio stations to deliver effective on-campus activations with students through a variety of formats.
Show Sponsorships
Show sponsorships are a powerful way to keep your brand top of mind among students. While subject to availability, sponsorships offer great value for longer term advertisers.
