The numbers are in … and they’re amazing!
AIM Tell-A-Vision (AIM TV) Group recently announced that its first-run, syndicated TV series Raw Travel® has completed its most successful May Sweeps rating period with +13% year to year audience growth and impressive +11% season-to-date year to year audience growth, leading to its biggest average audiences in the show’s 6 season history.
The syndicated show airs each weekend in over 95% of the US on broadcast affiliates such as WNYW Fox 5 & WWOR My9 in New York, KCBS 2 & KCAL 9 in Los Angeles and over 170 more cities.
In addition, some of the numbers are in for the episodes featuring Historic Downtown Sanford and they’re outstanding!
Over 5.2 million live viewers have viewed the featured episodes and still counting! Not included in these numbers are the recent June re-runs, the re-runs now through October and all of the viewers who DVR’d the episodes!
“It’s a pretty dramatic number” said Will Henao, founder of HistoricDowntownSanford.com The Visitors Guide and producer of the Raw Travel episodes #602 ‘RV Roadtrip: Central Florida’ , #611 ‘Historic Downtown Sanford’ and #615 ‘Let’s Go Sanfording’ all produced in Seminole County and Historic Downtown Sanford. “We are so pleased to be welcoming hundreds of new visitors locally and from around the country. It’s a great boost to the businesses! Raw Travel has certainly been a great partner in this initiative”.
In addition to domestic growth, Raw Travel continues to expand its international footprint in Asia (National Geographic People, Amazon India, etc.), Europe (Fox Iberia, RTL, etc.) and Africa. Raw Travel also can be seen via several In-Flight Entertainment (IFE) offerings on airlines such as Delta, Air Canada, Virgin America, Finnair and more and has plans for an OTT (Over the Top) offering in 2019.
“Pretty soon we’ll be welcoming more visitors from outside the US as the episodes make their way through international channels … it’s a pretty exciting time” Will Henao added.
