CPR Promotional Check-Up - Mar 1, 2018

Stars Cars

Chris Taylor just had a stroke. If you have a Rock station or Classic Hits station, here is your Spring promotion. First step? Find you a boogie van. Second step, try explaining to the Millenials on staff what a boggie van is.

Randomly Giving Away (Something)

One of the greatest cash contests in recent history (thank you to Jacob Cruise with Mix in Cincy for the lead) from Hamish & Andy in Australia. And even if you don't go up in a balloon, for God's sake steal their social media options at the far bottom, right. http://www.hamishandandy.com/2017/dropping-10k-from-hot-air-balloon/

Winner Insurance

Occasionally there are TV ad campaigns that are worth parodying.

When Bud was offering "born on dating", G-105 in Raleigh tagged all of their contest promos with "born on dating" to brand the competition as copycats, ie: "The Mattress Of Fame, first heard on G-105 on January 31, 2018, soon to be heard on the other station. G-105, now with born-on dating."

KLUC, KGGI and WIOG all did versions of "Real American Heroes" after the Bud spots.

The always-odd Laura Daniels helped The Conclave out with her take on Flo from Progressive.

So, Domino's does Pizza Insurance. Cool. Why not do some videos to promote Winners Insurance?

Struck by an asteroid while driving home from the station with your gift card to Wendy's? We'll cover it.

Your pet Kimodo Dragon ate your JT tickets? No problem. Bring in his stool with the digested tix and we'll replace them.

You won a trip to some music fest in Las Vegas and the aircraft was hijacked by anarchist Paraguayans with a beef against the beef industry? We'll send you next year and buy you a steak.

Why? Why not. Stop over-thinking things. This is Radio, not anything that is mature and requires thought and gnashing of teeth.
