Old-Time Radio Commercials
In old time radio, businesses hired an advertising agency to create radio advertisements for them. The advertising agency was sold a block of time by a radio network for their clients’ commercials. All kinds of products like cereal, hotdogs, laundry soap and toothpaste were advertised over the radio by radio stars and announcers. These commercials were usually performed by one person, as a two-person conversation, or sung to music with a catchy jingle. Another sneaky way advertisers got people to buy their products was by enticing listeners with giveaways if they bought the product.
