    Customers in Pakistan still have a strong preference for traditional radio advertising. They enjoy listening to radio programs and are receptive to the advertisements that are aired during these programs. This is evident from the fact that radio continues to be one of the most popular forms of media in the country.

    Trends in the market:
    One of the key trends in the Traditional Radio Advertising market in Pakistan is the increasing number of radio stations. Over the past few years, there has been a significant increase in the number of FM radio stations in the country. This has led to a greater availability of advertising slots, allowing advertisers to reach a larger audience. Another trend in the market is the growing popularity of local radio stations.

Advertisers are increasingly targeting these local stations to reach their target audience in a more targeted and effective manner.

Pakistan has been experiencing steady economic growth in recent years, which has led to an increase in consumer spending and purchasing power. This has created a favorable environment for advertisers to invest in radio advertising and reach a larger audience. Another factor is the increasing penetration of mobile phones and internet connectivity in the country. This has led to a greater access to radio programs and advertisements through online streaming platforms. Advertisers are now able to reach a wider audience through these platforms, further driving the growth of the market. In conclusion, the Traditional Radio Advertising market in Pakistan is experiencing significant growth and development. Customer preferences, such as the preference for traditional radio and the popularity of local radio stations, are driving this growth.

    Methodology

    Data coverage:

    Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on traditional radio advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers advertising spending in broadcasting programs on terrestrial radio stations or networks.

    Modeling approach:

    Market size is determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use industry association reports, third-party reports, and survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights Global Survey) to analyze the markets. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, population, media consumption, internet users, and consumer spending.

    Forecasts:

    We use a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the market. For instance, the S-curve function is well suited to forecast digital products due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption, whereas exponential trend smoothing (ETS) is more suited for projecting steady growth in traditional advertising markets.

    Additional notes:

    Data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice per year in case market dynamics change.
