TRANSCRIPT
The last 12 months have shown dramatic changes in the radio market with the latest JNLR results showing that listeners continue to move from national to local/regional radio, which now has a 46% market share.
One of the biggest issues that has faced radio in the last 12 months is the reduction in listeners, with the number of adults listening dropping from 87% to 85%. There are a number of issues driving this: while emigration and unemployment are obvious drivers, so too are shorter commuting times, the
growth of the iPod generation and the fact that the JNLR figures do not accurately log listeners from alternative platforms such as online streaming.
RTE Radio 1 has seen some strong book on book increases, with Morning Ireland up 23,000 listeners and Mary Wilson gaining a further 10,000. 2FM’s Ryan Tubridy has seen his first figures for his new mid morning show, which are 26% lower than the average quarter hour being delivered by Gerry Ryan 12 months ago. While many will say this is a weak return, it should be noted that this is a new show, with new content and will take time to find its feet.
There is no doubt that Ray D'Arcy holds the top spot amongst the mid morning shows, delivering 219,000 listeners daily. However it has been another tough book for Dempsey, with a further loss of 10,000 listeners and while he retains his number two spot, behind Morning Ireland, this position is far from secure.
There has been minimal movement in the market share in Dublin, with Radio 1 still the dominant station. 98FM holds top spot among local stations with a 11.6% share of all adults.FM104 is the preferred choice for 15-34 year olds with 21.5%, while Spin continues its dominance of the 15-24 category with a growing 36.3%.

Rising Searches (last 7 days)
11th Feb - 18th Feb 2011
Google This! During the week, Google paid homage to Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton and to Thomas Edison, with search volume rising accordingly. Incidentally, Edison didn’t invent the lightbulb. It was a Newcastle pharmacist called Swan the year before - who had an impressive head for science, but not so much for PR or patent stealing... It would seem that romantic Ireland is not dead and gone, as the past seven days saw many of us ‘googling’ some romantic valentine’s poems for our significant others. In entertainment, Jedward have been searched by fans and non-fans alike as they’re set to be our Eurovision entrants. Knowing the political minefield that is Eurovision points system, we hope they don’t take ”Ireland, nil points” too personally. However nobody can beat the excitement that was created by Lady Gaga online, in anticipation of her new single ‘Born this Way’. An avid user of Twitter and Facebook, Lady Gaga knows how to use social media to promote a brand.
Mindshare analyses the search volume within Ireland to establish patterns and trends of information people are searching for over certain time periods.

What is your role in Mindshare?
I’m Head of Radio here in Mindshare. Radio is a very important part of Irish life and of our Irish oral culture.I book in campaigns, competitions and sponsorships for our clients. I also keep an eye on all the latest data (such as that which appears in the JNLR blog post this week).
What media developments are you keeping an eye on?
The inevitable alliance between social media and TV - making TV a more social experience. It seems it is only a matter of time before everyone is updating their Facebook statuses during real time broadcasts all from one platform! What's your favorite recent campaign?
The Lotto ‘Rainbow’ ad always puts a smile on my face, but I have to admit Lynx’s recent ‘Fallen Angles’ gets my vote!
Who are your role models?Tony Soprano, Del Boy and Gordan Gekko... obviously.

TV viewing this week has not changed too much from
last week. However, news and political coverage is
receiving a lot of attention in lieu of the upcoming
general election obviously.
A new series of Dragon’s Den hits our television screens
this coming Sunday at 9.30PM.
The Late Late Show scored well with its special
Eurovision episode amongst the Adults 15-34. Jedward
now (as mentioned above) are going on to represent us
in the Eurovision.
RTE are seeking sponsors for two of their high rating
shoes - Off the Rails and The Restaurant. Both are
excellent opportunities for Housekeeper/female brands.
