Our "Radio Blog" is about you.
Years of consolidation.
Years of the stock market and private equity.
Economic shifts and technology shifts in the 21stCentury.
It seems the business gets harder and harder and leveraging your assets for money has become more challenging.
What is a local broadcaster supposed to do?
We don’t think it starts where everyone else thinks it does? In fact, we know it doesn’t.
Do you believe that Coke and RC Cola are the same?
Of course, you don’t. No one does.
Coke has a different relationship with consumers than RC Cola has.
The best and most celebrated companies in the world have an outside/in philosophy. Why? Because all people get stuck in one logic stream across their career.
We Are A Branding Consultant
We know that business results flow directly from the strength of your brand or brands.
Branding has fallen out of favor in our business to be replaced with repetitive copying. The results speak for themselves.
Brand Matters
Strengthening the customers need to act on behalf of the consumer is what causes the brand to influence the transaction.
Consumers are all about the brand.
In fact, customers will buy a commodity only when it is easy and cheap, but they will crawl over many products to purchase (at a premium) a brand they love.
If your customers/advertisers don’t care about your station or stations, they are free to act selfishly without thinking about the consumer. They don't believe you.
We help local broadcasters further develop strong local radio brands.
Ratings have become a proxy for brand, but ratings are only consequences for behaviors (good or bad).
Those consequences can be changed.
The work we do sets your product or products apart, help you connect an essential relationship with local consumers and encourage your sales team to leverage that for higher revenue.
What we also offer our clients:
How Would You Like To Grow Your Revenue?
Brand is just another word for trust. Trust comes from connection. It comes from showing you care about your customers and your consumers.

This Is What Makes Us Different
We are not programming consultants.
We are branding strategists.
The easiest thing for me to do is share what makes me different in my approach for helping local broadcasters. As I tell it, I have zero talent, but I am grateful to have four (4) very specific gifts.
1. Encouragement – I am a natural encourager. This isn’t the pie-in-the-sky encouragement. I am specifically talking about the casting of a vision and developing support around you and your entire team of individuals pulling your local radio brand up, up, up with the strategy and principles we discuss and put into play for your local radio brand to bring you higher ratings and more intensive revenue.
2. Strategy – I learned use of strategy starting when I was only 6 years old and it is a story worth hearing if you are interested. But I see everything in life through strategy. How a thing is built. I have an unusual ability to see what will work for your local brand and to use strategy to unravel your competitors simultaneously.
3. Behavior – As embarrassing as it may be, I have studied human behavior, motivation and human weaknesses all of my adult life. It is a fascination that helps my clients in a variety of critical ways that gives them an unfair advantage in their local radio market.
4. Aggression – I’ve always been naturally aggressive. This is an essential part of my DNA, but I know how to apply it surgically. It is important for us as an industry to again inject aggression into our brands so that they get attention today.
These four gifts result in continuous advantages for our clients.
We are servants of our clients and focused on improving their revenue and the real value of their business. If you need someone who will roll up their sleeves and help you get “it” done while bringing the value of your local radio brand back affordably, call us. 864.448.4169.
