Our broadcasting fees are low for Professional
Live Internet Talk Radio. Payments are
made on the day of each broadcast, or prior
to each broadcast. We take all forms of payment,
but prefer to automate a credit card. There
are many creative ways
to cover slot fees, however if the program cost
becomes an obstacle, we will work with you as
best we can to help you remain on the Air.

-
We
are not a website with a piece of software that
lets you automate your radio program! That is
just not radio to us. It's too far removed from
what real radio should be that we have a disdain
for it. In other words, while some "radio networks"
allow you to orate your dialog, with co-hosts
and guests, using a piece of software on a computer,
we do not. We are LIVE service. We have people
doing all the things that need to be done when
broadcasting live, rather than software. Our
platform demands it. There are people here.
Always! We are a premier Internet Talk Radio
network, not a website with oration software
that streams data. (Software
is not in control of your experience!)
-
We
have a professional group of people that work
with us. You will find our services are the
finest in the Live Talk Radio Broadcasting Industry.
(Excellent Service, No Exceptions!)

Some
rarely mentioned Perks of Internet Talk Radio:
Internet
access is worldwide! It's simple to use! Listeners
can easily access live shows or program archives,
24/7! Content is now experienced according to the
time and place of the listener, not solely on the
schedule of the broadcaster (an old model for radio).
Internet Talk Radio Listeners are among the most
loyal, active, word-of-mouth friends a radio program
can have.

Internet
Talk Radio for everything, including your business:
If you are a business that sells
a product(s) and/or a service(s), then you will
definitely want to connect with people on the Internet,
and in the most effective manner, one which is both
effective and affordable. That manner is audio.
Video is also a possibility, but it's more costly
and not as "user friendly". Audio and video are
the means, whereas audio should always be your first
choice! You can incorporate video aspects later,
once you've found that people actually like listening
to you on a regular basis. Marketing audio has many
advantages on the internet to that of video while
still being easily adaptable to video with imagery
and flash, for that YouTube experience.
To achieve maximum penetration with viral potential
for almost any service or product you must step
into the New Age, and use the Net to Connect. It
is that huge!
Online
Radio provides an interactive platform that can
achieve answers, visibility, interactivity, and
connectivity, all from the comfort of home! It's
marketing genius!
If you provide a service and/or product, you should
have an internet talk radio program. If you are
a publishing firm, you should consider rotating
authors and editors into weekly one hour radio broadcasts.
If you are engaged in any type of business from
real estate to organic goods, you could easily benefit
from an integrated, interactive, social media platform
as part of your "game plan". Fact! It's just
smart business, for any business!
Internet Talk Radio is your best choice to express
and communicate all manner of goods and services
to a lucrative market with a global presence. The
audio tools created by radio can be called upon
again and again, for use as training tools, book
materials, blog content, advertising clips, etc.
Indeed, how better to build upon your business then
by building a target market audience in ways that
focus the power of your ideas? Ideas in motion receiving
instant feedback!
The
Question
most asked of our staff: “What
are some of the ways hosts cover their slot fees?”
-
All
hosts can sign up for the BBS
Radio Affiliate Program and earn 75% Referral
Commissions on all Subscriptions, Advertising,
Sign-ups and Sales that come in via their Affiliate
Links, and receive a further 10% Affiliate Commission
paid to them on the total commissions earned
by their affiliates. It's easy to get an affiliate
and build a work force, because if your advertisement
linking to us facilitates someone signing up
as a BBS Radio Affiliate, they are now in your
"work force". This is a great way to profit
from your web traffic, email contacts, marketing
lists, social networks and other connections.
This is a creative and alternative way to cover
program fees, or to just stuff extra money in
the mattress. As you will see, our subscription
prices, advertising
prices and program
host fees can make this profitable and lucrative
for any BBS Radio talk radio host to pay down
their slot fees and make money broadcasting!
75% is Huge. In
fact it's too much (or so we've been told).
But that's how we Roll! Our cost on accepting
subscriptions, signups and sales through paypal,
and our merchant account, are between 4% and
9%! Therefore, the program host taking 75%
of the gross revenue is remarkable, indeed!
No where else will you find a talk radio network
facilitate this for their program hosts, except
for right here on the BBS Radio Network. Nice
huh? To clarify: If you receive just over
one annual subscription a week it would pay
for your program and start making you money.
If traditional methods of finding advertisers
and sponsors for your program are are just
not working for you, especially now being
in Internet Talk Radio, then
join our family here at BBS Radio and enjoy,
knowing your right where you need to be. Let
us prove it!
-
All
hosts can earn 20%, in perpetuity, on all broadcasting
fees paid by hosts they refer to the Network.
This is also a great way to profit from web
traffic, email contacts, marketing lists, social
networks and other connections.
20%
Recurring Commissions. Program hosts
continuously make fifteen percent of the gross
without ever having to do anything beyond
making the initial referral. An easy way to
do free radio. If you refer 5 people that
broadcast on the BBS Radio Network you'll
basically end up broadcasting free and getting
paid!
-
Host
may acquire a radio time slot and then have
their broadcast fees shared with, or covered
by, their co-host(s).
-
Some
of our hosts find companies willing to pay them
for their PSA's "Public Service Announcements"
/ advertisements. Hosts may either orate the
commercial live on air or run a pre-recorded
audio file. Those that orate the adverts live
on air, generally charge more than running pre-recorded
PSA's.
-
Some
broadcasters cover their fees by finding sponsors
to sponsor their radio program in a variety
of ways. These sponsors will pay for all or
a portion of a given program's fees for a set
period of time (one month to several months
or even a year or more). These sponsors generally
require a greater commitment by the host than
just PSA's, such as banner advertisements being
placed on their radio pages, and on their regular
websites. This may even include some email marketing
or social networking requests.
-
A
broadcasting host can have between 5 and 20
different independent companies paying them
for a 1 minute live plug on the air. This can
be very lucrative when a host knows a lot of
small businesses, internet companies, "Mom
& Pop" type stores or small manufactures
that don't have a lot to invest but are willing
to take a stab at internet marketing.
-
Some
hosts charge for their archives on their own
websites. They download the audio files from
BBS Radio and then post them to their own website.
-
A
few hosts bundle their audio archives into categories,
which are then sold as learning courses (in
sets). There are many creative ways to do this,
but often they are bundled by topic or time
period.
-
Hosts
can have their guests make a payment, to be
on the air with them (where they also get plugs
for their products, books or services), and
then agree to send their guest a CD of the archive,
giving them full rights to use as they desire.
In other words, the hosts have their very own
distinguished guests actually sponsor the broadcasts
they are a part of.
-
Hosts
can even sell advertising on their profile pages,
archive pages, and program info pop-ups located
throughout the website.
There are many creative
ways to cover the slot fees, however if the
fees become an obstacle, we will work with you
as best we can to help you remain on the Air.
We
are the best at what we do, which is everything
for you!
Your job is to have fun! Our service goes so far
beyond the rest,
they don't even rate as an experience!
Here is where your voice flourishes;
you are treated beautifully,
and you are Family!
