CPR Promotional Check-Up - Aug 18, 2014

Great Morning Show Topics, Part 3 & 4

1. "Words that you hate so much you have an almost physical aversion to them". Me? "Broth". I have no idea why. Meredith Teplitz? "Moist". Use the word in front of her and she'll have to sit down.
2. "What did your parents spank you with?" from CRS-award-winning KVOO in Tulsa. All the lines had to be put on hold because they couldn't keep up with editing. This is the social media response https://www.facebook.com/shannonpottsfranco/posts/10152621928543287?comment_id=10152622894863287&offset=0&total_comments=101¬if_t=feed_comment_reply

Great Moments In Car Contesting

From WNCI in Columbus. A cool car and they're selling the crap out of appearances. http://www.wnci.com/contests/wnci-summer-prize-patrol/297244

From 99.7 NOW-FM where they have three cool cars and cash to back it up in the Bay Area. http://997now.cbslocal.com/2014/05/24/topless-summer-is-back-win-cash-and-cars

BrasX7000

That was how many Magic Broadcasting collected last year for their breast cancer campaign in October. The string-the-bras-across-(body of water) bit is slowly inching its way, cup-by-cup to being a stereotype event. A station-to-remain-nameless is going to collect them and instead of looping and stretching, are going to cover a local landmark in them. Just as good and DIFFERENT.

Back To School

• It's very popular at Christmas to have people submit photos of their kids crying on Santa's lap. Me? I'd post photos of crying, mournful kids on the first day of school.
• One of the stations has concert tickets and were looking for a BTS angle. My suggestion? Have people trade the midday jock their lunches for the tickets. And they really DO need to bring a PB&J or Lunchables when they come to get the tickets.

A Great Promotional "Suffix"

Stick "kakke" on the end of a term and you are 7/8ths of the way to a killer bit. Like at a station that shall remain nameless where they did "Fookakke" and used a t-shirt cannon to blast tickets onto a crowd of people at a Foo Fighters concert.. I get paid for this. My mom's spinning.
