  • Promoting Your Store Right in Your Hometown !
    Real People. Real Help. Real Close. Promoting Your Store Right in Your Hometown ! To All Illinois Hardware Dealers: In 2008, MHA launched a special program for our Wisconsin members called My Local Hardware Store!™. The goal: help stores move beyond traditional product and price advertising and communicate your unique advantages of service, convenience, product knowledge, and local ownership. Clearly, these are the independent hardware retailer’s benefit over big box competitors. MHA aired commercials on radio stations across the state, primarily using the Green Bay Packers broadcasts and programming. We got very positive responses from consumers, participating stores, and the industry. In 2009, we want to offer a similar program for TM Illinois MHA members. The following pages outline our proposed program with the University of Illinois football broadcasts on radio stations across the state. Participating stores will have their store name, location, and owner/manager’s name included in radio commercials that air on their local radio stations carrying University of Illinois football broadcasts. The program would begin in early September and run through November 2009. Take time to read through the following pages and then fill in the final page and fax it back to MHA as soon as possible. We need your response no later than June 15, 2009. This is a special opportunity to use the power of your association to promote what your store does best, to a large audience, branding your store right in your home town. As always, we welcome your questions and comments at Midwest Hardware Association at 1-800-888-1817.

  • Common Frequency Simulation #2
    Via Electronic Mail November 12, 2010 Marlene H. Dortch Federal Communications Commission Office of the Secretary Room TW-A35 445 12 th Street, SW Washington, DC 20554 Re: LPFM Proceeding, MM Docket No. 99-25 Dear Ms. Dortch: Common Frequency (“CF”) previously submitted a letter and study on September 28, 2010 to the FCC concerning the shortcomings of implementing a ten application processing cap for pending translators in Auction No. 83. Since then a smattering of comments on translator processing and questions regarding the comment have beckoned CF to provide further clarification in this follow-up. In this comment, CF responds to questions about our earlier study, addresses the proposals from other parties, and provides a second study with a more exhaustive methodology to provide better insight on our position. The translator preclusion study submitted by CF was produced to communicate that the ten application cap did not appear effective at providing more opportunity for LPFM in urban areas. At the heart of the matter, in our simulation, if ~97% of the top 150 urban MXs are taken by translators then there would be no difference in these urban markets if there was a ten application cap or was no ten application cap . Although we additionally expressed that very few channels would be left for LPFM in major urban areas—a generalization that could require the processing of further data on CF’s part to be exact —this observation is separate from reporting that 97% of the top urban MXs being consumed, which was foremost reported in CF’s executive summary.

  • Marketing Music in a Digital Age
    MARKETING MUSIC IN A DIGITAL AGE by James Rocco Amedeo A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Barry Kaye College of Business and The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts & Letters in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, Florida April 2009 Copyright by James Rocco Amedeo 2009 ii ABSTRACT AUTHOR: James Amedeo TITLE: Marketing Music in a Digital Age INSTITUTION: Florida Atlantic University THESIS ADVISOR: Michael Zager DEGREE: Master of Science YEAR: 2009 The physical sale of music and the effectiveness of traditional media are expected to continue to decline, challenging marketers to develop new methods to create awareness about music. Although music sales are declining, interest in music is healthy, and strongest amongst the American young adult market—between the ages 18-34. This marketing plan uses traditional and innovative techniques to capture the attention of the target market, which is more culturally diverse and technologically advanced than any previous demographic. iv This manuscript is dedicated to my family, particularly to my parents, who have encouraged me, and provided me with the love and support needed to fulfill my dreams, and to Bianca, for being a great sister and friend. I also dedicate this work to my grandpa Rocci.
