Excerpt from Radio as an Advertising MediumThis book is written solely to give businessmen and advertising executives enough fundamental data about radio to weigh and evaluate the possibilities of radio as a carrier of advertising messages. It covers primarily what the businessman should know about this fast-growing advertising medium if he is to get the most out of it in sales and advertising results, in other words, if he is to make radio advertising pay dividends.The author has endeavored to maintain a single viewpoint, that of the advertiser, the man who has a right to some kind of yardstick to measure the effectiveness of radio advertising and the efficiency of those who plan, build, and present the sponsored radio program which he pays for.There are, of course, other worthy (many might say more worthy) viewpoints from which to study radio. The author is in no way belittling their importance. He does believe, however, that the advertiser has a right to consider advertising as the most important part of radio. For him, at least, it is.The author wishes to extend his thanks in particular to: Mr. Richard W. Brown, College Editor of Orchestra World, for valued assistance on the chapter on music, Mr. C. E.
