: Jan, : Thanks for the input. Nice to hear from a : former manager of radio stations, as this : confirms that this kind of advertising will : work. : I understand what you are saying about ad : time in the period of November and December, : how the stations will probably be booked solid : for runnning ads. If I contact them now, we'll : see what happens, and then I'll be in a position : where the ads can run in January and February, : which would suit me fine. : Do you have any contacts with stations you have : formerly run? An endorsement from a former : manager might help me to get a foot in the : door for the Widow's Mite, and I'll figure out : some way to return the favor. : Yes, it is an intriguing project, and I have : already considered using the coin as a fund : raiser for Churches and other things like : that - the religious schools is a good idea that : I hadn't thought of! : Thanks, Jan, for all the input. : Joe O'Neill : joetrader@aol.com : : Joseph, : : As a former manager of radio stations, I would like to respond to that portion of your inquiry. : : Many stations will accept PI (per inquiry) ads. However, the busiest time of year for media : : advertising is of course November and December. : : Most often it will be a smaller station (perhaps AM) who accepts this type of advertising. You will have the : : best luck during first quarter due to a slow down in ads at that time. Unfortunately, Easter is another : : very busy season, and your chances of finding a station to accept PI's is more difficult. : : If you could identify another time of year and perhaps even "create" a special reason for buying your product, : : that might work for you. You will get many more ads to run during January and February than any other : : time of the year. : : What about approaching some large churches to see if they might be interested : : in using this as a fund raiser? Or perhaps religious schools? : : Good luck with your project. It sounds very intriguing.
