Newspaper Advertising In Las Vegas: Advice For Small Business Owners
Oct 14, 2020 5:13:17 PM / by Larry Julius
Las Vegas area business owners are expected to spend $39 million on newspaper advertising in 2020. This will be 49% fewer dollars than were spent in 2019, according to a study by Borrell Associates, a company that analyzes local media expenditures across the country.
Of course, the pandemic is part of the reason advertising revenues have plummeted at Las Vegas newspapers. But, the more significant factor is the sustained erosion of readership.
For example, between October 2017 and March 2019, the Monday-Saturday circulation of the Las Vegas Review-Journal has decreased by 22%. The Sunday edition suffered a 17% decrease.
Among all advertising media available to small business owners, newspaper's ability to reach adult consumers now lags significantly behind Las Vegas radio, cable, broadcast TV, and social media.

Who Listens To Commercials On Las Vegas Radio?
Apr 22, 2020 1:42:22 PM / by Larry Julius
Every week, 1,502,898 adult consumers tune-in to a Las Vegas radio station. That is way more than are reached by other media, including local television, newspaper, social media, or streaming audio sites like Pandora and Spotify.
A more significant number for thousands of Clark County small business owners who advertise on Las Vegas radio is how many of these listeners stick around when their commercials come on.
A 2011 Nielsen study discovered that, on average, 93% of listeners stayed with the radio station they are tuned-to when the commercials come on. That number amazed many advertisers at the time who believed that audiences were far more likely to defect when the music stopped.
A lot has changed since 2011. Nevada consumers have many more media options and can instantly connect to each with a button-push, mouse-click, screen-tap, or voice command. With all of these choices, do radio audiences still stay tuned during commercial breaks?

Advertising On Las Vegas Radio Remains Best Option During Corona Chaos
Apr 15, 2020 6:13:29 PM / by Larry Julius
The chaos created in Clark County by the onset of Coronavirus has been a disruptive force among consumers.
Work routines, buying habits, family life, and media consumption have all been palpably affected. These are all factors that need to be considered by small business owners who continue to advertise their goods and services during the crisis.
Before the current chaos, advertising on Las Vegas radio, by any metric, was the best way a local small business could advertise.
For instance, pre-Coronavirus, 1.5 million adult consumers tuned-in to a Las Vegas radio station every week. This is significantly more than watched local TV, read a newspaper, accessed social media, or streamed audio from sites like Pandora and Spotify.
New research released from Nielsen indicates that amidst the current crisis, listening to local radio remains little changed. This is great news for those Nevada small business owners who are depending on advertising for their long-term survival.

Small Business Advertising In Las Vegas: Target The Spenders
Mar 3, 2020 8:09:10 PM / by Larry Julius
Clark County consumers spent more than $45.6 billion with retailers last year. The National Retail Federation forecasts 4.1% more will be spent this year.
Who are the shoppers that will be spending all this money?
According to Nielsen, 43.4% of retail dollars are spent by Las Vegas area consumers over the age of 50. This may surprise many small business owners because older consumers comprise only 35% of the area's adult population.
These older consumers account for a substantial share of spending in almost every retail category. This includes furniture, cars, pet supplies, fast food, and electronics.
To earn a share of these massive dollars spent by these older consumers requires Las Vegas small business owners to advertise.

Las Vegas Retail Boom: How Your Small Business Can Benefit
Feb 28, 2020 5:32:50 PM / by Larry Julius
Retailers in Clark County rang-up $45,669,580,000 in retail sales last year, according to Nielsen. But wait. It's about to get better.
The National Retail Federation forecasts that in 2020, sales will increase by as much as 4.1%. This will create another $1.9 billion for local small business owners.
“The economy is growing at a more modest pace, but the underlying economic fundamentals remain in place and are positive,” stated NRF chief economist Jack Kleinhenz. “Consumers remain upbeat and have the confidence to spend, and the steady wage growth that has come with the strong job market is fueling their spending. The state of the consumer is very healthy.
To claim a fair share of this enlarged pool of spending will require Las Vegas small business owners to advertise.
“Think you have a great product?” asks the U.S. Small Business Administration. “Unfortunately, no one’s going to know about it unless you advertise.”
