What it is
Radio Day is a professional day marked on 7 May in Russia and some neighbouring countries. It is linked to the demonstration of the radio receiver by the Russian physicist Alexander Popov in 1895, and it is also considered a day for communications workers and radio enthusiasts.
For modern businesses it is a pleasant occasion to talk about communication: how you talk to customers, which channels you use and how you keep conversations clear and fast. It also works well for B2B accounts, telecom and IT partners.

Radio Day is a good moment to talk about something simple: good communication. In our projects we use three rules: say what you will do, say when, and say if something changes. Congratulations to our partners in telecom and IT, whose work lets our conversations happen. What rule would you add to the list?
Happy Radio Day! Today we publish a voice lesson in the channel: three minutes of clear speech, how to breathe, how to pause and how to avoid filler words. Listen with headphones and repeat after us. After the lesson, record a voice message with your best sentence in the comments, and our teachers will answer a few of them.
Our playlist on Radio Day is a small tribute to the old transistor radio: warm sound, no ads and a coffee on the side. Come in, take a table near the speaker and tell the barista which song you want next. Tag the person you would call after a good song. We might play your request.
Meme and trend formats that fit
- Can you hear me now. A short clip of a person trying to say something important with a bad connection, ending with a clear message from your brand. Keep it friendly and light.
- Voice message vs text. A joke about people who send three-minute voice messages versus those who prefer short texts. Let followers vote for their side in Stories.
What to avoid
- Do not copy historical text from other websites; tell the story in your own words and only with facts you are sure of
- Do not overload the post with technical jargon; the day is about people talking to people
- Do not promise instant answers if your team cannot keep that promise
When to post
- Prepare the audio or video a week ahead and check the sound quality
- Post in the morning of 7 May; the audio greeting works well in Stories and Telegram
- The day after, answer the comments by voice message to continue the conversation
What to check afterwards
- Listens or plays of the audio and the Reel
- Replies to the Story poll and comments
- Responses from partners you congratulated and tagged
