Anyone know where I can get a list like this?...
 
I want to promote one of my businesses via doing interviews on radio stations.

What I need is a list of SMALLER, small town talk-format stations (read: 'dinky' stations), so I can start out on smaller stations to get better + better at the process, before I break into the 'big time.'

In the performing biz, we call it 'a place to be bad.'

Do you know where I can get such a list?

Thanks!

I CAN already find directories of radio stations -- but none of them seem to be able to be sorted by listenership -- or even wattage/power.

TW,

Here you go... :)

Try reviewing and/or contacting a few of the following resources...

Talking about Radio... In case some haven't already heard...

So unfortunate but 90 years of age Paul Harvey surely enjoyed a Great life..

All those Amazing years on radio with all his Great stories, especially his Advertising story telling... ;)

Thankfully his son has been keeping the Good ol' Paul Harvey stories going...

Rest in peace Paul Harvey... I'll be forever listening to those archives...

Paul Harvey -- legend for good reason!...
 
I will miss him greatly too!

As a performer (and deep-down believer in E-Myth tenets) myself, many years ago I asked myself which performer I had (any) respect for, in terms of character + career choices.

The only name I could come up with was Paul Harvey.

He understood and FOLLOWED the teachings of Michael Gerber -- *as much as a performer can* (economy of scale + minimum work load), AND he conducted his life (as far as i know) with dignity + a strong moral compass. That is a RARE combo in the entertainment biz -- so much so, that I adopted the phrase, "WWPHD" when trying to make choices in my life.

It didn't land me a 100 million $ contract like he got, but it has stood me in good stead. PH was a real inspiration to me + millions of people.

And, Phil -- thanks for the links! I'll check 'em out!

Cheers -- or should I say... GOOD DAY!!
