Groundbreaking Airtime Campaign Set to Boost 919 Local Businesses in Gauteng
A transformative advertising initiative is set to give 919 local businesses the opportunity to thrive in 2024. The 919 Airtime Boost Campaign, launched by Social TV in partnership with 919FM and supported by JT Comms, offers businesses access to affordable, high-impact advertising on one of Gauteng’s most influential radio stations.
At the heart of this campaign is a simple yet powerful concept: for just R919, businesses can secure a live-read advertisement on 919FM, with the option to upgrade to a professionally produced advert for R3980. This initiative is designed to support local entrepreneurs and SMEs, providing them with the tools to reach their target audience and grow their brands.
Driving Local Business Growth
Samm Marshall, Managing Editor of Social TV, says:
“This campaign is designed to empower local businesses by making high-quality advertising accessible and affordable. With 919FM’s award-winning platform and the strategic support of JT Comms, we’re offering businesses an unprecedented opportunity to elevate their visibility and impact.”
Under the leadership of Station Manager Caren du Preez, 919FM has become a trusted voice in Sandton and beyond, recently winning three Telkom SA Radio Awards. This includes accolades for Best Breakfast Host (Shane Hunter) and Best Afternoon Drive Show (Nicole da Silva).
Breaking Barriers to Advertising
For many small businesses, traditional advertising costs are a barrier to growth. The 919 Airtime Boost Campaign breaks down those barriers, offering affordable live reads and the chance to benefit from the professional expertise of 919FM’s production team.
“This is more than an advertising campaign—it’s a movement to support the backbone of Gauteng’s economy,” adds Marshall.
