The invitation to this World Premiere teleseminar promised:

“Fast, Inexpensive Radio Ad Campaigns That Produce Immediate, Measurable Results.”

Hmm…Big talk.

I’m happy to report we have the post-seminar reviews to back up the big talk….

“I’ve taken more pages of notes during this teleseminar than any I’ve attended. Thanks, Blaine and Dan for opening my eyes to all the great ideas!” (Ron Stevens, All Star Radio)

“Great seminar, got into good detail on how to take a customer through the process of building a small campaign properly. All the principles of a building a great, short campaign were laid out in logical order, and well explained with examples. (I love examples!) We had a great Study Guide with which to make notes and get the important details of the seminar.” (Reinert Peterson, 100.3 the Q! and The Zone @ 91.3)

“My sales team and production team was on the conference. Thanks so much. Made great sense to us!” (Carol Healey, WFIL)

“Blaine’s practical approach is most helpful in managing what is often perceived as an unmanageable situation: the advertiser that wants to ‘experiment’ with radio, but hasn’t a clear understanding of how to do it right. Blaine’s ‘Strike Force Advertising’ principles can stand in the gap, providing clarity and focus both for the advertiser and his advertising counselor. Looking forward to listening again, and to sharing the ideas with clients and colleagues. Well done!!” (Rod Schwartz, Grace Broadcast Sales)

“The points made reinforce what you teach. But I never thought about utilizing these ideas for a fast reaction campaign. (Danny McWilliams, Center Broadcasting)

“I thought Dan was kidding when he said there was a way to get rapid results on radio without investing a fortune. Turns out, he wasn’t kidding. This teleseminar told you the bottom line on what you need to know to rapidly make radio work. The combination of Blaine Parker and Dan O’Day OVERDELIVERED. If they make this recording available, do not hesitate. Grab it.” (Harlan Kilstein, Direct Response Copywriter)

One attendee thought the pacing could’ve been better…

“I agree 100% with the content. I would have preferred the delivery to be more direct, like say a ’strike force’ message. It would have been cool to hear it laid out in a direct 1, 2, 3 method, and then perhaps discuss the customization and examples at the end. Perhaps work through a real life example start to finish?  I enjoyed the call, much appreciated.” (Jon Pole, My Broadcasting Corp.)

Quick Reply: We made an active choice to start with a backdrop of how traditionally “good” radio advertising works, so we’d have a point of reference against which to contrast Blaine’s radically different Strike Force technique. I can see where an “old pro” might’ve preferred that we jump right into it. Hopefully, once we jumped it was worth the set-up.

Did you miss the live event? You still can download the entire teleseminar on mp3…but only until the end of this week.

Who Owns Whose Words



When you post something on this blog, you retain the right to use your words elsewhere.

I get to use your words elsewhere, too: in a newsletter, book, 3-D hologram, major motion
picture, etc. I'm not saying I will, but it's possible.

But you don't get to take the stuff I write here – even if it's in response to something you
wrote – and use it elsewhere.

Just so you know.

Thanks,
Dan O'Day
