Should traditional broadcasters start an internet radio station?
Traditional broadcasters are embracing internet radio to complement their existing services and adapt to evolving listener habits.
- Complementary Content: Offer exclusive online content, podcasts of past shows, or behind-the-scenes glimpses to enhance the overall listener experience.
- Targeted Advertising: Utilise detailed analytics to understand your online audience and offer more targeted advertising opportunities to sponsors.
- Reduced Regulatory Burden: Navigate a less stringent regulatory environment compared to terrestrial broadcasting, allowing for greater creative freedom.
- Future-Proofing: Position your broadcasting operation for the future of audio consumption, which is increasingly digital and on-demand.
Accessible to anyone
Online broadcasting is accessible like mainstream broadcasting has never been. No longer do you need to be ‘in the know’ to get an entry level internship. No longer do you need to be restricted by archaic regulations. Now those new to radio and seasoned broadcasters alike can run their own station how they want, wherever they want.
Not only is online radio accessible to broadcasters, it’s incredibly easy for listeners to join in all across the world. Through smartphones, anyone can become part of your community through our customisable apps and websites, and anyone can bring their favourite station with them anywhere they go.
Community building
Grow a radio family around your station and connect your local community with events and fundraisers. Support local businesses through advertising and inspire local musicians by giving them a platform that wouldn’t be accessible to them anywhere else.
Encourage young members of your community to actively involve themselves in radio work and develop technical and social skills for the future, as well as educating them on the importance of local culture.
Establish your brand
Cultivate a unique brand all of your own with our iOS and Android app and website builders.
Establish an identity for your station to give your listeners a completely new experience that highlights the best of what your station, and your community, has to offer.
