What is Audience Data? Data is information, like numbers and trends that tells us who listens to radio, where they are, and when they tune in. In Uganda’s rich media landscape, with over 35 languages broadcasted across the entire country, effective radio advertising hinges on data, not intuition. Gut feelings can lead to costly errors, like choosing a station that misses your target audience or overspending on ineffective slots. Data ensures your advertising budget delivers results.

Key performance indicators (KPIs) like ratings reveal a station’s popularity, showing how many listeners tune in. Reach measures the number of unique listeners exposed to your ad, while opportunity to hear tracks how often they encounter it. Gross Rating Points (GRPs) combine reach and frequency to gauge your campaign’s impact. For cost efficiency, Cost Per Thousand (CPM) offers you value for money so you only pay for the targeted audience per 1,000 listeners, ensuring you get the best value.

Uganda’s diversity demands precision. A station popular in Kampala may not resonate in Acholi, Kigezi or Karamoja, where different content, language and cultures thrive. A station with the highest reach may not give you the value you seek.

Data provides you stations that align with your audience, in the right place and at the right time. Without data, you risk missing entire communities, reducing your ad’s effectiveness and wasting resources.

East Africa Radio Service (EARS) simplifies this with data-driven packages tailored for Uganda’s diversity. With our plans, you can maximize reach and representation across the country while optimizing costs in one single booking.
