Target new ad budget

• Redesign on-line/mobile rate cards to meet needs of non-radio clients (CPM)

• Sell to major on-line agencies who spend web budgets only

• Identify and secure direct large accounts who have separate on-line/mobile budgets

• Work with existing clients to identify separate budgets– develop integrated solutions with a clear value split
