THE GEORGIA CLASSICS

OBJECTIVE

Our team was tasked to help increase overall brand awareness for a local Athens, GA radio station, The Georgia Classics. As radio is on the decline and users are shifting to streaming platforms, this campaign was more important than ever. We aimed to position The Georgia Classics Radio as a more desirable platform to listen to your favorite songs.

THE CAMPAIGN

The Georgia Classics targets UGA Alumni and bringing back the memories of college years. The station focuses on playing college classics for adults ages 50-70. We wanted to build our campaign around how music can transport you back to the time you listened. This idea created our slogan: Get the Band Back Together.
