So, how does the use of smart speakers as an audio device affect their radio advertising's ability to reach local consumers? The answer is: none at all. [![Advertise In Philadelphia](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/6125763/c9ba359e-8eb7-4cca-a4ad-dfd90cb5ffc8.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/6125763/c9ba359e-8eb7-4cca-a4ad-dfd90cb5ffc8) A study by Edison Research finds that local AM/FM radio dominates the share of consumers' time spent using audio on a smart speaker. It's larger than Pandora, Spotify, and Amazon Music.  It's even more time than users spend with their personal music collection. #### **Share Of Time Spent Listening To Audio On A** #### **Smart Speaker** [![Advertise In Philadelphia Smart Speaker Usage](https://cdn2.hubspot.net/hub/5556325/hubfs/Advertise%20In%20Tampa%20Bay%20Smart%20Speaker%20Usage.png?width=322&name=Advertise%20In%20Tampa%20Bay%20Smart%20Speaker%20Usage.png)](https://blog.advertiseinphiladelphia.com/advertising-options-for-philadelphia-small-business-owners) In the Philadelphia area, millennials make-up almost one-third of the population. This generation, however, accounts for 50% of smart speaker ownership, according to Nielsen. Among  local millennials who possess an Amazon Echo or Google Home device, Philadelphia radio is, by far, the medium with the biggest reach.  This is a strong indication that smart speaker ownership does not impede the ability of local radio to deliver large, engaged audiences for small business owners.
