It’s that time of the year again for radio listeners to start voting for their favourite radio station ahead of one of the much celebrated events in the entertainment calendar, MTN radion awards.
Brian Gouldie, Chief Marketing Officer of MTN, has indicated that listeners have a definite say with regards to one of the categories in the awards which is dubbed the My Station Award category. The category is divided into two awards which are My Station Votes – which goes to the station that generates the most votes and the Station Most Loyal Listeners which goes to the station that
generates the most votes as a ratio against their RAMS audience numbers. “This category has proved extremely popular with stations and listeners alike and has generated almost 400 000 votes in 2013,” Lance Rothschild, MTN Radio Awards CEO added.
He further indicated that the category ran exceptionally well last year with the awards going to Umhlobo Wenene FM and Radio Pretoria, respectively.
“The opinions of the listeners are extremely important to us at MTN and we feel that this category provides the listeners with the opportunity to cast a vote in the MTN Radio Awards,” added Gouldie. “We’re really looking forward to seeing who will win this category this year,” he added.
Station participation in the My Station Award is voluntary and listeners are urged to vote by sending in the station’s code via SMS to 40616. All voters go into a draw where one lucky winner will win a trip for two to the United States of America. Delta Air Lines have sponsored two return air tickets and three nights of accommodation for two people sharing in
Florida (choice of Miami / Fort Lauderdale / Tampa / Orlando). In addition, the winner will win two tickets to the MTN Radio Awards gala dinner and a smartphone with R500 airtime. Each SMS costs R 1.00 and Terms and Conditions apply
Audience voting in the My Station Awards closes at midnight on Monday 31 March.
