BROADCAST MEDIA

As a leading NYC PR agency, we consistently help our clients reach their personal and professional goals. One way we do this is by gaining them bookings and placements in broadcast media. Segments on national and local television, radio, or even podcasts, allow you to reach a wide audience in a short amount of time. There are different types of broadcast media, and media placements on these various platforms, can function uniquely for you and your business.

What is Broadcast Media?

When someone is talking about “media,” they could be referring to a wide range of communication methods supplied by the press. These include television, radio, magazines, newspapers, and digital articles. But broadcast media, to put it plainly, is mainly referring to TV and radio.

It’s no secret that new media has soared, leading to a large portion of mass communication to take place by means of digital technologies via the internet.

Radio & TV Placements

Many ask, “Does TV and radio still make an impact?” The definitive answer? Yes. Absolutely. Nothing beats the visibility that TV & radio can gain you or your company. Not only can appearances on broadcast media and interviews make a huge impact on your overall brand image and reputation, it also enhances the credibility and legitimacy of your company. This increases opportunities to grow your business and leverage new clients.

As a former television producer, Annie Scranton has a unique perspective on broadcasting because she was a part of that world for several years. She understands the simple fact that journalists and producers are extremely busy people. As a producer, she would receive hundreds of email pitches every day, and she – like almost every producer – would delete the ones from senders she didn’t know or recognize. The competition for TV placements is incredibly intense. Having a strong PR team behind you, with strong media connections and background knowledge, is essential to consistently gaining bookings on TV, radio, and all broadcast media.
