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.

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...

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!!
