*December Radio Advertising - Great opportunity*

Discussion in 'Advertising' started by celtics23, Nov 27, 2008.

    I am the co-producer and host of Midweek Politics (www.midweekpolitics.com), a weekly political talk show that is broadcast on the nationwide Pacifica radio network (www.pacifica.org). The show has well known guests (recently John Kerry, Ralph Nader, etc) as well as many advertisers also advertising on Sirius and XM radio, etc.

    The show has a heavy podcast following, with over 15,000 views/downloads on itunes and our website per SHOW, and we do one show per week, in addition to airing on traditional radio stations across the country.

    Each show remains downloadable for a total of 6 weeks., meaning that when you advertise on ONE show, it is downloaded for the 6 weeks that follow.

    This is a GREAT opportunity for website businesses that are not location-based to advertise. Cash4Gold, one of the BIGGEST affiliate programs in the country, uses this type of advertising regularly, as do many others. This is strong advertising for product based websites, content sites looking to drive traffic, affiliate programs, etc.

    We have limited availability for November shows:

    11/19/08: 1 spot
    11/26/08: 2 spots

    Details:

    * Ads are 30 seconds long. You can provide be a produced 30 second ad, or we can produce the ad for you, and I would voice it.
    * The show airs Wednesdays. Wednesday at 12:00 pm eastern US time is the cutoff for making it to that night's show.
    * If YOU create your advertisement, there is NO MINIMUM. If WE create your advertisement, there is a 2 show minimum. You must provide a script if we voice your advertisement.
    * Cost is $35 per show and includes your 30 second ad DURING the show, AND a mention of your site at the beginning of the show, ie "today's program is made possible in part by yoursite.com.'
    * You can opt for a 60 second spot for $60.

    Following are two sample spots:

    http://www.midweekpolitics.com/spots/

    In addition, the URL is mentioned at the very beginning of the show, which you can listen to an MP3 of as well.

    Please contact me directly to move forward on this.

    I am unable to edit my first post, so I want to add these details from PM questions:

    1. We can produce your ad with or without a music bed (background music)
    2. There are bulk discounts available for purchases of 4 weeks or longer
    3. You can have spots air on every-other show. ie you can purchase 5 weeks, but your ads will air on every other show for 10 weeks. You just have to tell us upfront...

    Also, the November dates that are there are clearly wrong, as this is for December. We currently have:

    12/3: 1 spot
    12/10: 2 spots
    12/17: 1 spot
    12/24: 3 spots
    12/31: 2 spots

    We can't measure the number of live vs. non-live because we are on a number of media, including live over-the-air radio on various stations, as well as a webstream, etc. I will contact you directly to discuss details though.
