“The most affordable way to get the word out.”
Did you know Central Vermont Community Radio has the most affordable way to get the word out? We know because we did the research and our underwriters and sponsors have told us this!
Do you need to reach Vermonters in our area? Consider underwriting or sponsoring the station. Our new 2024 rates and options aren’t only affordable, they can be customized to meet your needs for an upcoming event, seasonal businesses, or year-long run.
What’s the difference between underwriting and sponsoring?
Underwriting is a 20 second spot on the air that lets listeners know about your services, products, or mission. Unlike ads, they are not loud or flashy, they simply tell folks what you do, where you are, and where they can learn more. This has to follow FCC regulations. The rates start as low as $273 for a once a week mention for 6 months.
Sponsoring is also a 20 second spot, but on our livestream that tells listeners about your services, products, or mission, but with some flair! More like an ad, they tell folks why what you do matters, where you are, and where they can find you. Sponsorships are great for online retailers and the cannabis sector. These do not have FCC regulations. Slots are very limited for 2024, as each sponsor will get a full day sponsor of the stream starting as low as $1,000 for 6 months. With over 100 streamers a day, that shakes out to $1 per actual human listening (so much more reliable than social media ads and a far cheaper ROI compared to other local media options!).
