UNDERWRITING KOOP PROGRAMS
The local business supporters of KOOP recognize that supporting independent public radio in Austin is the best way to get the word out about their services. KOOP's Development Director can help you today to customize an underwriting package to meet your long- or short-term businesses needs. By underwriting on KOOP you'll be able to reach a smart, progressive crowd that already has a stake in their community. You may support an individual program (check out our eclectic mix on our Schedule Page) or establish a random rotation schedule for maximum exposure. Contact our Development Director at promotions@koop.org or 512-472-1369 today to talk about supporting KOOP!
Need more reasons to support KOOP Community Radio? Check these out:
1. For a fraction of the cost of commercial airtime, you can reach
your target market.
By underwriting KOOP programming, you will reach an important and diverse
audience--listeners who are well-informed, involved members of the Austin
community. When you choose which programs you want to underwrite, you
can direct your messages to the type of audience you want to reach.
2. Sponsoring community radio is a great way to enhance your company's
image.
Results of an opinion poll cited in Public Telecommunications Review
found that 81% of the people polled said they admired a company more because
it underwrote public broadcasting, and 38% said such underwriting influenced
their choice of a product or service. High visibility comes from underwriting
a program in the uncluttered environment of community radio.
3. By underwriting KOOP, your company will be providing a cost-effective
service to the Austin community.
You will be investing in the quality of life in Austin by making available
a plethora of programming not currently available--from local music and
locally produced environmental news to alternative, high-quality national
programming. Your company will help provide a forum for airing views on
important issues, and expanding educational and cultural opportunities
of youth and adults alike. Our listeners, which will include your clients,
customers, and employees, will thank you.
4. Underwriting at KOOP is completely tax-deductible!
That's right! Since KOOP is a 501(c)3 organization, any contribution or sponsorship of KOOP is a charitable act, and a tax write-off.
