Forecasting revenue for advertising is critical for any broadcast company.


Two aspects make up your projections: OTA (over the air) and third-party digital. We’ve created this handy ROI calculator that can help you look into the future of revenue. You can project radio OTA, local TV OTA and third-party digital. You can also use it to understand the impact of third-party digital if your station isn’t currently selling it. Dive into the calculations to see what the revenue horizon looks like for you and your sellers.

As you can see, projections for OTA are very volatile, increasing in even years and declining in odd years, primarily due to election cycles.
