Digital advertising has become a key revenue stream for radio stations. According to the 11th annual Borrell-RAB digital benchmarking report, digital ad sales accounted for 16% of radio revenue in 2022 and will rise to 22% in 2023. The report also projects that total ad revenue for digital radio stations will hit $2 billion, and businesses will spend $78 billion on local digital advertising.
This is great news for radio, as digital amplifies traditional campaigns and has a sustainable growth trajectory. Plus, more companies are buying digital advertising from radio sellers than from other local media channels.
