How do you get the message to the Spanish speaking population in San Diego County that Little Caesars has a great $5-dollar pizza? You guessed it. Advertise on Hispanic radio stations and spread the word in the language they understand!
From October through December, 2008, Little Caesars reminded radio listeners that they could stop by to get a hot pizza for only $5-dollars, and that they didn’t even have to waste their time calling and ordering. Univision Radio created the script that helped the pizza franchises increase awareness of a great product and ultimately, boost sales. The campaign ran on KLNV-FM and KLQV-FM.
“It must be a small pizza?” one friend asks another in Spanish, when he hears about the low prices.
And the friend reassures him, “Al contrario, llevate una Pizza grande y calientita” Translated, that’s “No, really, actually you get a large hot ’n ready pizza…”
A ten-slice, 14-inch pizza for five dollars is an exceptional value in any language and the three-month on-air campaign reached the people who understood the message. Franchise owners saw a 5 to 20-percent increase in sales while the spots ran, and a lot of people became new customers at Little Caesars.

More than 5,000 people turned out for the annual event which was emceed by a number of deejays and KOGO Radio’s Cliff Albert. Generous San Diegans rolled up their sleeves, and enjoyed the music and other entertainment as well as refreshments and the opportunity to meet Charger’s players (and Charger’s cheerleaders) and get their autographs.
The Honda Dealers of San Diego County and San Diego County Credit Union helped sponsor the event.
At the end of the day, the community’s longest running and most successful life-saving event of the year netted 17-hundred pints of blood for use by patients at local hospitals. And the Blood Bank’s Stem Cell Donor Center added more than 120 names to the National Marrow Donor Be the Match registry.
