Campaign
Campaign: 8-week web promotion on 20 Radio station web sites in 15 markets.
Promotion: Each station web site contained a fixed contest ad button directly on the station home page. Listeners were directed to the stations’ web sites to register to win a Pigeon Forge getaway vacation package.
Radio stations promoted the contest on-air using promotional announcements, both live and pre-recorded. There were no actual spot dollars placed in the campaign.
Pigeon Forge also provided merchandise for on-air giveaways and contesting, creating additional on-air chatter. Where available, stations also promoted the contest in listener email blasts.
Pigeon Forge Investment: $50,000
