Baby Boomer Audience Acts on Underwriting.
The KVMR listening audience reflects that of a National Public Radio audience. KVMR’s listening audience, Baby Boomers, is one of the most sought-after listening demographics. They are mature, home-owning, empty-nest, relatively-affluent adults who are more able to afford our underwriters’ products and services.
Most important to business underwriters, 70% of public radio listeners say that a company’s support of public radio has a positive influence on their decision to purchase that company’s products and services, and they act on that (per the Corporation for Public Broadcasting).
