Commercial Radio Malaysia is the association of commercial radio operators in the country. As a research partner, GfK will provide advertisers and media buyers valuable insights into the listening habits of local radio listeners.
GfK will introduce a combined methodological approach for the study in Malaysia. Two waves of surveys will be conducted per year among 12,000 representatively selected radio listeners in Malaysia. These respondents will log their radio usage over a period of seven days; with 80 percent responding via a paper diary and 20 percent via an electronic diary. To analyze the obtained data, GfK offers its own software solution that enables broadcasters and advertisers a strategic program and media-planning tool.
This new contract signals the return to a single radio ratings system for the Malaysian market.
For more than four decades, GfK has been providing radio and television audience measurement. The largest German market research institute delivers TV currencies in varying European countries and is currently building corresponding systems in Brazil, Saudi Arabia as well as in Singapore. GfK radio research operates in a number of European countries and more recently also in Australia and New Zealand.
