Names: A Marketing Myth By Roy Williams You're at a conference table a half- century ago with Zora Arkus- Duntov. He's looking for a name for Chevy's sexy new sports car. Someone says, "How about Corvette Stingray ?" Zora says, "I like it." The Driving Forces Any chance of that happening today? I think not. These days someone would likely suggest that someone be brought in from somewhere like Namexpress, Namelab, Naming Systems, Name Development, Namebase Nameit, Namepharm, NameSale, Of In -Car Listening Namestormers, Nametag, Nametrade, NameQuest or Namix. I'm wagering that the "Stingray" name would be immediately harpooned. "A slow and ugly fish is not the image you want for a fast, sexy sports car.

www.americanradiohistory.com THE NEW SINGLE FROM SONYA ISAACS...ON YOUR DESK

Dear Country Radio,

Do you ever look back on your life and wonder how the choices you

could have made would affect where you are today? I have been a Lyric Street recording artist for 6 years now, and it seems only yesterday that

I first met Randy Goodman and his teammates backstage at a Ryman Auditorium performance. A lot has happened in 6 years, yet it seems not much has changed_ We have shared smiles and disappointments, tears and excitement, overwhelming days and frustrating nights, yet through it all, we still keep rolling along, as if nothing ever happened.

Sometimes I laugh to compare our journey to one of an old cart with square wheels. It takes an awful lot just to get it rolling. Then with a little luck, and a lot of pushin' and pullin', you roll on at a slow pace until the wheels are finally rounded off. Then and only then will you gain momentum, and start to feel the results of all the time and energy spent_ Still there can be detours and obstacles in your path, but the main thing is to just keep rollin. Eventually you will look back and smile on where you have been, and if nothing else, you will have the satisfaction of knowing you did your best, and that the friends you have met along the way are still there by your side_ Regrets? No_..not yet. Time is young, the cart is loaded, and we've barely begun our journey...Climb on.

Best Regards, oda IMO
