Rewrite the Old Script: The New Era of Radio Advertising
Whether or not you are in Hispanic Radio, this session is for every radio seller and manager!
Like it or not, the rules of radio advertising are being rewritten. If you’re still following the old script, you’re already falling behind.
Imagine The Wizard of Oz: Dorothy, lost in a strange new world, still clinging to the belief that the old rules of Kansas apply. It takes a journey through Oz, unexpected allies, and the realization that she had the power all along to rewrite her own story.
The digital revolution has been reshaping the media landscape for years, and some have already discovered the truth. Those yellow bricks in the road? They’re gold. But only for those who know how to walk them.
At this year’s Hispanic Radio Conference, best-selling author, business consultant, and media strategist Peter Remington is set to challenge industry professionals to break free from outdated sales strategies and embrace the evolving definition of radio as “new media.”
With extensive experience across Hispanic and wider demographic radio markets, Remington brings an interactive, no-holds-barred approach to understanding how digital tools can transform radio advertising. His session will push sales professionals beyond surface-level database marketing and into the world of precise geo-targeting, demographic segmentation, and income-based digital strategies.

In his interactive session, Remington will lay out the new rules of engagement in radio sales, including:
- Define Your Audience, Don’t Assume It — Hispanic radio in particular requires cultural nuance, acknowledging the five generations of Latinos in the U.S., language preferences, and regional distinctions.
- Sell Radio as “New Media” — Forget the outdated “radio vs. digital” mindset. The most successful stations are blending on-air, social, video, and influencer marketing into one seamless media solution for advertisers.
- The Power of Hyper-Targeting — Successful campaigns no longer blast ads to broad demos; they use geo-targeting, income segmentation, and AI-driven data analysis to reach consumers with pinpoint accuracy.
- Beyond the Booth: Influencers Matter — Radio personalities are trusted voices, but they’re just one part of a broader influencer marketing strategy. Advertisers want stations that can integrate social media personalities, user-generated content, and local brand ambassadors into their campaigns.
- If You’re Not Training, You’re Losing — The most profitable stations have dedicated digital sales teams because they understand that selling high-margin digital products requires completely different sales strategies than traditional spot buys.
The message is clear: radio is no longer just radio. It’s part of an evolving digital ecosystem, and those who fail to adapt will get written out of the story. Remington’s session at HRC isn’t just about learning new strategies — it’s about owning the future of radio advertising and proving its power in a digital-first world.
Will you keep reading from the old script, or will you take control and rewrite it? The choice is yours.
