Radio Sales Leaders: Are you prepared for growth in 2021?
As radio broadcasters diversify, are sales team ready to thrive?
Advertisers across categories are rediscovering radio and its ROI potential when incorporated as part of an integrated solution that drives brand awareness and business objectives. However, radio sales organizations are often ill-equipped to sell and deliver these new solutions and revert to what is most familiar. To compound the issue, sales compensation plans in radio often do not clearly link pay with growth priorities.
To help address these challenges, Alexander Group has launched a survey for radio sales leaders to inform their go-to-market planning and prepare for a return to growth in 2021.
The Radio Ad Sales Survey is designed to provide insights for sales leaders to achieve sustainable growth by taking a deep dive into sales strategy, structure, role design, compensation alignment and investment areas to drive new business and minimize churn.
Preliminary results show select radio markets expecting 20%+ overall growth in 2021. Complete this survey to see how your organization stacks up. The survey takes approximately seven minutes to complete. Responses are confidential and the results will only be shared in aggregate.
