To the Business owner:

Where are your marketing dollars going? Local television or radio, small local newspapers or are you paying your hard earned money to the cable stations who promise you demographics and specific zones? All of these options cost your business thousands of dollars for a thirty second slot in their prime listening/viewing slots and only for a few commercials at that.

With Internet radio you could get city, state, regional, national, international or GLOBAL coverage. This means that visiting families over the holidays, business people and many others have exposure to your business.

How often have you wondered where your customer base is coming from? Use your advertising to focus the info so you can track better what method works best. Coupon programs, special offers or even make the customers punch the clock and come to your business for your product or services.

Minnesota’s population is growing and changing every day. People from other countries, the storm ravaged areas, and people from all over the country come here to live, work and enjoy themselves. Why not make sure they have heard of your business before they arrive?

As you look through this packet realize the untapped potential of advertising over the Internet with “The Wall”.

What are you getting for joining us?

Websites are a pain to maintain unless you got the skills or one of your kids is willing to help. We will construct a sub web site on our site and drive the traffic to it so you can run your programs, tracking and shape you plans.

Free On-Site promotions. We will come and drive business to your door through special events and sales promotions. The “Big Boys” spend thousands to get “On Air Personalities” to come and endorse their businesses and or products. We will do these for you because it helps both of us as businesses free of charge.

With rates starting as low as $200 a month you can get 12 commercials a day for a whole month and no talent charges. We also will give you a print copy of your advertising so you can spread those eggs.
