International Awards Event Names iHeartMedia the “Best Media Vendor of the Year” and Silver Winner for “Best Media Owner Sales Team Initiative”

New York, NY – May 14, 2015 – iHeartMedia, the leading media company in America with a greater reach in the U.S. than any other radio or television outlet, has received two awards from the Festival of Media Global Awards 2015, the most influential media industry event in the world, for its work with sales clients in the U.S.  The Festival of Media Global Awards took place on May 12 at the Rome Cavalieri in Italy.

Festival of Media honored iHeartMedia with the “Best Media Vendor of the Year” award, which recognizes the creative efforts of a media owner to connect advertiser clients with their audiences, for its work with Diet Coke and Taylor Swift. The multi-platform campaign simultaneously launched Diet Coke’s “Get a Taste” advertising campaign and Taylor Swift’s 1989 album. The program generated approximately 500 million press impressions and 200 million on-air, digital and social impressions for Diet Coke. Taylor Swift’s album 1989, predicted to sell 800,000 units before the iHeartMedia campaign, sold nearly 1.3 million albums in just the first week, and became the No. 1 best-selling album of 2014.

iHeartMedia was also named the Silver Winner in the “Best Media Owner Sales Team Initiative” category, which honors a media owner’s local or regional sales teams for their innovative and creative sales packages implemented within the market.  In this category iHeartMedia was recognized for its partnership with Bank of America for World AIDS Day. iHeartMedia’s comprehensive cross-platform program across radio, digital, social and outdoor delivered more than 100 million media impressions in 24 hours for “A (RED) Thank You,” a special World AIDS Day event that took place in New York’s Times Square. Additionally, iHeartMedia drove on-air and social conversation, helping to generate over 10 million views of the YouTube (RED) concert video, the most views on (RED)’s YouTube channel in its history, ultimately raising $1 million in donations to (RED) on one day.

The Festival of Media Global was launched in 2007 and draws together the global leadership of media agency networks with the most innovative media owners and the world's most powerful and progressive marketers. In 2009, the Festival of Media launched a Global Awards ceremony that is now one of the world's largest advertising ceremonies by number of entries, attracting work from more than 40 countries.

iHeartMedia Introduces A Roster Of New Original Audio Programs At First-Ever ‘Soundfront’ Event For Brands And Agencies
 
Marketers Can Co-Create Original Programming to Tap Into the Power of Sound To Tell Their Stories On Air, Online and through Live Events
 
NEW YORK - April 23, 2015 - iHeartMedia, the media and entertainment company with the largest reach of any radio or TV outlet in America, today unveiled its new series of original audio programs, which will allow marketers to collaborate with a host of celebrities and talent through customized and creative storytelling. iHeartMedia teams up with a broad spectrum of A-list producers, musicians, actors, music industry veterans and curators, including producer of hit TV series and gaming franchise, The Walking Dead to Oscar-winning actor and musician Jared Leto, to produce innovative audio programming and storytelling that will air as long form segments on iHeartRadio and short form segments across iHeartMedia radio stations nationwide.
 
“In the age of visual distraction and shorter attention spans audio has the ability to break through and get heard better than any other advertising.   We are seeing increased engagement in audio programming both on air and via podcast, and original audio forces us to get back to the basics of telling stories simply and honestly, which consumers love,” said Gayle Troberman, CMO and EVP for iHeartMedia, Inc. “We believe most marketers are massively under invested in the power of sound and the iHeartMedia Soundfront is our opportunity to challenge the industry to explore the creative potential of sound to tell and sell better.”
 
The following original programs were previewed at the company and radio industry’s first ever “Soundfront,” in front of an audience of hundreds of brands and agencies who are now able to collaborate directly with iHeartMedia to help shape original content:
 
Skybound Rundown (podcast): From the producers of The Walking Dead TV show and gaming franchise, Skybound Rundown reveals everything consumers need to know about what’s new and next in the world of indie gaming.

Heart of the Beat (podcast):  Artist and musician Jared Leto will bring sound and storytelling together in this original audio show that allows artists to reveal the method behind their madness.

Who is Marty Hirsch? (podcast) is the first ever audio mockumentary, building off successes like This Is Spinal Tap and Almost Famous to tell a story of a mythical music icon. We track his unbelievable influence through a host of legendary rock stories – some fact, some fiction. Partnering with Mindshare Entertainment, we’ll use the voices of real rock survivors to form an image of the man, the myth, the legend – Marty Hirsch.
 
iHeartMedia in partnership with Trium Entertainment – the creator and executive producer of “The Biggest Loser” and the new series “Making a Scene” with James Franco - will introduce:
 
The Vent (podcast): According to Jaime Pressly celebrity moms are out of touch. Their advice simply isn’t relevant or helpful to real-life moms taking on daily struggles with their kids, their jobs, their bodies, and their partners.
