Five Minutes Or Less: Can Shorter Stopsets Really Print Money?

0

One of the hottest interview series in Radio Ink headlines this year revolved around shorter stopsets – everyone says that’s what radio needs, but so few stations actually make it happen. Now you can join that conversation live at the Radio Masters Sales Summit.

Radio Ink Online Editor Cameron Coats explores this question with two industry veterans who have cut their stopsets to great success in “Can Shorter Stopsets Raise Revenue?” You’ll hear the panelists’ firsthand experiences with cutting stopsets and honest reflection on whether fewer ads enhance revenue.

Join us at “Can Shorter Stopsets Raise Revenue?” on September 14, the second day of the Radio Masters Sales Summit.
