Why benchmarks?
Increased dependence on audience-
sensitive revenue
• Decline in federal funding
• Increased programming costs
• Positioning station as important community institution
What Benchmarks can Do
For every hour of listening to my station thisyear:
How much net revenue do we have in…
membershipmid-level givingunderwriting
What you get
• Trend Reporto How is my station doing compared to previous years?
What you get
• Peer Reporto How does my station compare with others?o Who are my peers?
What Benchmarks can Do
Relative to my audience:
Are my membership and underwriting programs
becoming more or less efficient from year to year?
What is my potential based on the performance of
my peers?
Listener Hours
• Listener Hours are the amount of a program or station “consumed.”
• They are the result of:o The number of persons
tuning in.o How long they listen.
• Therefore….
Listener Hours
• 1 listener listening for 5 hours = 5 listener hours.
• 5 listeners listening for 1 hour also = 5 listener hours.
• 5 listener listening for 5 hours = 25 listener hours
