Why Cincinnati advertisers work with DX Media Direct
Ads built to generate revenue
We are a direct-response agency. Every spot is made to drive calls, leads and sales you can count, not just impressions.
Pay 35-90% less for media
We buy last-minute unsold inventory on TV, radio and digital. Same shows, same reach, a fraction of the rate card price.
Real relationships, not portals
We negotiate directly with network reps. That gets you rates and placements automated platforms cannot match.
Target Cincinnati or go national
Buy by region, ZIP code or specific shows. Start local, then scale to national TV, radio and streaming when it works.
Free ad production
Radio production is free, including scriptwriting, studio time and one voice talent. TV production runs from concept to final cut.
Daily optimization
We watch response every day and move spend to the dayparts, stations and networks that are paying you back.

How do you get rates 35-90% below rate card?
We buy remnant inventory, the unsold last-minute ad space networks still need to fill, and we negotiate directly with network reps we have known for decades. You get the same shows and the same audience for far less.
Do I need a finished commercial already?
No. Radio ad production is free, including scriptwriting, talent and studio time with one voice talent at no charge. For TV and video we handle production from concept to final cut.
How do I know if it is working?
Direct response is tracked. We measure inbound calls and leads against spend, optimize daily, and use 90-day DRTV tests to build a clear playbook before you scale.
