As social media matured from a novelty to part of consumers' daily rituals, some Philadelphia area small business owners began to experiment with advertising.

By every key advertising metric, though, Philadelphia radio remains the best choice for a small business to market their goods and services. Here's why.

Last week, according to Nielsen, 2,193,604 adult consumers in the Delaware Valley tuned-in to a local radio station.  That is significantly more than logged-on to any social media site over an entire month.
