Customer and listener behaviour and preferences were monitored very closely and distilled into various initiatives ranging from music testing to identify and offer music of listener choice, creating an effective customer satisfaction tracking system to garner instant feedback for advertisers on their campaigns. The radio network also launched a customer knowledge building initiative where the station shares consumer insights, educating advertisers on how to use the medium effectively for their brands and campaigns. All these steps have yielded positive results for the station.

Harrish M Bhatia, CEO, 94.3 MY FM, said, “Over the year we have improved on our operational efficiency and productivity, which laid a solid foundation for our growth. We are extremely encouraged by our EBIT growth of 533 per cent. MY FM's strong performance has been led through significant investment in content creation and pathbreaking innovations, and a strong connect with its listeners through its brand philosophy, 'Jiyo Dil Se', which have placed MY FM in the top list amongst all other radio stations. We are on the cusp of a major expansion in the radio business with the announcement of Phase III of Private FM radio policy expected soon. We look forward to this expansion.”
