CRB, INC. FOLLOWS UP DEBUT OF CRS: ONE ON ONE SESSION WITH SECOND INSTALLMENT ON JUNE 18
Upcoming session to focus on new media marketing opportunities at radio
with featured speakers Paul Williams (Sony Music Nashville) and Roy
Elkins (Broadjam)
(Nashville, TN May 24, 2010) Based on the success of its inaugural
CRS: One on One mentoring session in May, Country Radio Broadcasters
has announced a June 18 follow-up installment, focusing on new media
marketing opportunities at radio.
Industry veterans Paul Williams (Senior Director, Strategic Marketing,
Sony Music Nashville) and Roy Elkins (CEO, Broadjam) are this sessions
featured speakers. Attendees will learn how to improve their radio
stations marketing efforts through new media initiatives and
technology, as well as gain a better understanding of how consumers and
listeners are using that technology. Twelve Country radio marketers
will be chosen for the June 18 CRS: One on One session.
After the success and feedback from our first One on One event, we
moved quickly to organize another installment, says CRB Executive
Director Bill Mayne. We felt like the new media marketing angle was
something that is relevant to every single radio station in the
country, so we recruited two of the best and brightest on the subject,
Paul Williams and Roy Elkins, to discuss that topic with our next batch
of attendees.
CRS: One on One encourages candid, one-on-one interaction and
discussion between participants about the current issues and challenges
faced by those working in the Country Radio industry today. The next
session will be held Friday, June 18, 2010, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at
