Radio Manager Comments

“Wanted to let you know that we just landed another nice order from our sales website…while we have seen great success from the leads overall, this one takes the cake. It’s a financial planner/wealth management category, and we landed a 12-month, $104,000 client.” – Marty Schibbelhut, Director of Sales

“Within the first sixty days of the websites being up and functional we had closed over $70,000.” “Gregg’s background as a sales manager and director of sales really helps.

“We suffered some five tornados the morning of Mother’s Day. It did millions of dollars in damage. The following Tuesday we received a Web Lead from a roofing company that said they were looking to advertise immediately. The next day we had the order for $12,000 for just four days of advertising (that’s not a typo…$12,000.00 for four days of advertising). We receive no less than 2-3 web leads each week and we convert almost half of them to clients. Thanks!” – John Rodriguez, Market Manager

“A radio sales and marketing website is a must in today’s business environment. The only question is who will do the job? I can unequivocally recommend Gregg Murray. I’ve worked with Gregg Murray for five years in two markets. In fact, during an interview for my current position, I was happy to see our group of stations was already using iRadioSales. Gregg has a proven plan that’s easy to follow and requires very little time on management’s part. I’ve found our sales website to be of particular help with event marketing and the email database of clients and potential clients is very effective.” – Bill West, Vice President/Market Manager

“Our seven stations are all in small markets where everyone wears lots of hats.

I would highly recommend your service to any stations that are looking to upgrade their image to the business community they serve.” – Steven Fuchs, Owner

“Our Radio Advertising Center website has been our best source of leads this year. In the past 6 months, we have converted an average of one to two new advertisers per month that never would have found radio if not for the site. Our best story is about a company that makes transmission parts for truckers (who would have’ve ever called on them?!?). They had never done any advertising before. They went to our sales site, filled out the form, and we were able to sell them an event for truckers to come to their facility and hear experts speak about transmissions. The deal closed for $8,500.” – Jay D. Wachs, General Manager

We love our sales website and the promos you’ve done for us!!” – General Manager

Thanks Gregg and continue to serve your people the way you do.” – Darryl Burnett, Sales Manager

“A recent Web Lead generated $27,000 in the first 6 months and they just renewed. In January, I received a web lead from a potential advertiser and I really didn’t have to do much selling. The promo we were running and our sales website was convincing enough. I just needed to guide them through the process as it was their first time advertising. I sold a 13-week campaign. He got so many calls, he actually had to automate his phone line so that he wasn’t bombarded by people just looking for directions. After the end of his first 13 week campaign, he renewed his campaign for another 13 weeks.” – Alex Stone, Martz Communications Group

She ended up buying a $20,000 annual for regional Toyota (this was in addition form our local dealership buy).” – Lori Lewis, Priority Communications

“The owner of a local business heard us promoting our sales website during a St. Louis Cardinals’ baseball game. He went online, browsed the site, and filled out a web lead form. This is an old client that hadn’t been on the air for a while. He was undergoing a name change and wanted to get the word out. How did we know? He told us first before it was even common knowledge in the business community. Now, he’s a sponsor of our Cardinals’ broadcasts!” – Mark J. Mills, General Sales Manager

“Just wanted to tell you something that’s happened with our sales website. It looks beautiful, and we’ve started our on-air campaign. The very first business that contacted us was a business that there would have been no way we would have known about, he hasn’t even open his doors yet. He heard the on-air campaign, he got on the website, we got a lead. He signed a six-month contract and paid in advance…Awesome!” – Trace Michaels, Market Manager
