Radio Life is about stories. It’s about friends and coworkers and rehashing the highs and lows of our careers. And just about everyone has had their own disaster tale, and when someone tells me that “Nope, never had a contest calamity”, I’ll suggest that maybe they’re not trying hard enough.
Great homerun hitters go up to the plate and they swing. And they usually have the most strikeouts on their team but, when they connect, that stands erupt and they’re mobbed at home plate.
This is not one of those moments. This is the kind of experience that, years later, you still kind of get involuntary full-body shivers.
This is….The KDWB Blimp.

“Creating” a contest or an event or a promotion is an exercise in problem solving. Facebook is a great facilitator of research. It makes focus grouping 30 non-Radio friends with “Hey, Brad Paisley wants to do something creative on Zoom” instant and easy. We’re only as good as our ideas and there’s a whole resource for them that we’ve never tapped.

2020 is going to be The Summer Of Outdoors. The summer when people are going to find every excuse imaginable to be in their gardens or pools or biking or hiking or walking their dogs or grilling in their driveways. So, nice, concise, sterile breaks aren’t going to reflect that.

As some semblance of what is and what isn’t normal returns to our lives, we need to look into the near future and start ramping up plans for the summer. Knowing that people are going to be “out” (safely and distanced) at every opportunity, maybe that’s your Summer umbrella: Get Out, And Stay Out. And the focus is all of the stuff above and more. Boating. Golfing. Backyard gatherings. Barbecues.

A sign of a great Radio campaign is when people can sing the jingle 40 years later. And great copy will sell spots.
