Where we buy

Most of what we buy
is local.

National reach is there when it's the right answer. Often it isn't. Most advertisers make their money in a handful of key markets, so that's where the majority of our buying goes — targeted down to the ZIP code.

50%

Local key market

Half of what we buy is local. Specific stations, specific dayparts, specific ZIP codes — the markets where your customers actually are.

25%

Regional

Multi-market and multi-state buys for advertisers with a footprint bigger than one metro but smaller than the whole country.

25%

National

Full national coverage across broadcast, cable, CTV, and radio when the math supports going wide.

Why you're here

You're paying more
for the same customer.

Nothing is broken on your end. The channels that built your business have stopped scaling, and the alternative always came with a question you couldn't answer.

Digital CPAs keep climbing

Meta and Google costs are up 30–60% over the last few years. Same customer, more money, compressing ROAS. It's on your dashboard right now.

You can't prove offline works

You know TV and radio reach people. But when the CFO asks how you'll track it, reach reports and GRPs aren't an answer — so the budget stays on digital.

The last agency sold impressions

Most shops think in share of voice. They bill for strategy decks and hourly scripts, then hand you a brand recall study instead of revenue.

What the review covers

A free look at what
you're already running.

Send us your current media plan and creative. We'll tell you where the money is going, what we'd cut, and what we'd do instead. If it turns into work, good. If it doesn't, you still keep the recommendations.

01

We read your media plan

Station, daypart, and market level — local, regional, or national. Where you're overpaying against rate card, and which placements aren't earning their spot.

02

We review your creative

Direct response creative follows different rules than brand. We'll tell you honestly whether yours is built to convert or built to look good.

03

We show you the tracking

Exactly how a spot at 2pm on a Tuesday gets tied to an order — Dial800 for inbound calls, Quality Analytics for online response driven by offline media.

04

We give you a number to test against

What a realistic cost per lead looks like in your category, which markets or ZIP codes to start in, and what a disciplined first test should cost.

Receipts

What it looks like
when it works.

Three accounts, three different problems. Figures are the clients' own reported results.

Bath remodeling
10×
lead flow in 3 months

Spending more on TV every year while sales declined, with no way to see where the waste was. We cut the underperforming stations and renegotiated the rest by showing them their own numbers. Best sales year in two decades.

Tax resolution
1,000
leads per week

Started as a phone call fifteen years ago from someone with an idea. Still a client today, running TV, radio, and digital together — and they hit all-time sales records in Q1.

Debt relief
6 wks
losing money to profitable

Turned the account around in six weeks. The volume that followed took them from three salespeople to thirty just to keep up with what was coming in the door.

Straight answers

The questions
everyone asks first.

Do you only buy national?
No — most of what we buy is local. Roughly half our campaigns are local key-market buys, a quarter are regional, and a quarter are national. We target down to the ZIP code, so if your customers are in six ZIPs we don't make you pay to reach the whole metro.
What's the minimum investment?
Usually $5,000 to $10,000 a month, depending on your goals and what you need the media to return. Below that there isn't enough spend to run a real test, read the data, and roll out — and we'd rather tell you that now than take the money.
How do you measure performance?
Two third-party systems. Dial800 measures inbound calls down to the spot, station, and time. Quality Analytics measures online response driven by offline media. You get vanity URLs, dedicated numbers, promo codes, and web lift analysis — reported in cost per lead and cost per order, not impressions.
What does the creative cost?
Most of the time we break even on creative, on purpose. We'd rather your dollars go to media that generates leads and sales than to production line items. Right now radio spot production is free — script, real human voice talent, and music included.
Do I have to commit a big budget up front?
No, and we'll argue against it. We test with a smaller budget, find where it wins, then roll out. Thirty years in, the expensive mistakes have already been made on someone else's budget.
Isn't TV dead?
Not for the people measuring it. In the 2026 GfK/NIQ Purchase Funnel study, 42% of adults named television as the most important media in making them aware of a product or service — more than double the next platform — and 89% said linear TV ads influence what they search for online. Even among people who stream, linear TV still ranked first for awareness.
