Radio Ads + In-Car Visuals Generate Significant Brand Effect

The combination of the in-car visual with the over-the-air radio ad generates a major improvement in advertising recall and impact.

The latest Westwood One blog post looks at the results from a MARU/Vision Critical study, commissioned by Westwood One, which looks ng at consumers with vehicles who have next generation HD Radios technology. The study revealed the impact of a retailer’s visual in the in-car display when synced to the advertiser’s radio ad.



Here are the key findings:
  • Heavy AM/FM radio listeners and those who spend the most time in their car regularly pay attention to in-car display screens. The more time consumers spend in the car, the more they pay attention. 68% of those who spend 11+ hours weekly in the car regularly pay attention.
  • Heavy AM/FM radio listeners recall seeing visual information from in-car display screens. Two-thirds of heavy AM/FM radio listeners have frequently or occasionally seen the advertiser name or logo on their connected vehicle’s screens.
  • Consumers who regularly viewed their in-car display were more likely to recall the advertiser radio ads. 66% of regular in-dash radio display viewers could recall the retailer’s radio ads.
  • Those who recall the retailer’s in-car visuals were more likely to visit the stores. 84% of those who recalled seeing the in-car visual synced to the radio ad had visited or planned to visit the store.
  • Recall for the products advertised in the AM/FM radio ads was stronger among heavy radio listeners. 64% of heavy AM/FM radio listeners who recalled the major retailer’s advertising remembered the specific service featured in the ad.
