Radio market in the UAE is the perfect storm – people driving long distances – often with lots of traffic, many different nationalities so a large number of stations targeting the major demographics via the language spoken by the presenters and the language & style of music played to entertain the listeners. This can be confusing or difficult to navigate through as most people you speak with will have a bias or set agenda to push you to what suits them best.
We are the only agency in the UAE that only specialise in Radio Advertising! Having worked on the inside of the major stations in Dubai, we know how to extract the most out of your campaigns. We have fantastic relationships with all the stations across the country so can offer you honest, neutral advice on the best mix of stations for your campaign goals & objectives.
