It’s Time. To Rethink. Refresh. Refocus.
This will be the second year for the Radio Masters Sales Summit. And this year, we’re making it easily accessible no matter where you live: Cincinnati Airport Marriott, September 13-14.
The Radio Masters Sales Summit was launched last year to fulfill a need for a conference focused strictly on sales, sales marketing, and sales management. And the agenda is created to inform, educate, motivate, and inspire.
This is a conference dedicated to radio platforms (all of them), managers, and sellers, with lots of one-on-one opportunities for attendees to meet, chat, and share vision, ideas, and creative problem-solving concepts and concerns.
Bestselling author and monthly Radio Ink Magazine columnist Roy Williams will be back with his always sage advice on creating great radio that sells product. And Roy should know; he’s credited with selling more radio than anyone in the world.
We’re also excited to have Bernie Weiss, President of iHeartMedia Multiplatform Group, New York and author of “Ace It,” to debunk “7 Sales Management Myths.”
Matt Sunshine of CSS will share “12 Essential Sales Habits of Top Performing Media Sales Reps.”
Paul Jacobs of Jacobs Media Strategies is set to lead a fascinating panel on “Digitizing Your Audience for Revenue Growth,” and Dara Kalvort of SBS’s DigIdea and her panel will offer some great ideas about “Driving Sales with Technology and Innovation.”
Plus we’ll be exploring lead generation, prospecting, how AI can be used to increase sales, and a host of other prime topics that will have you making money as soon as — or even before — you get back to your station.
And the summit will feature the 31st annual Radio Wayne Awards, recognizing radio’s top talent in sales, marketing, and management.
Join us September 13 and 14 for the Radio Masters Sales Summit. You’ll leave rethinking, refreshed, and refocused.

Leveraging Audience Analytics to Tell Your Story
How do you use your audience analytics?
There are the obvious applications: Highlight the numbers in media kits and sales presentations. Break out demographics on your station’s website.
The trouble with this approach is that it doesn’t tell your station’s story. It doesn’t show current and potential advertisers the relationship your on-air talent has with your audience or the power of your reach into the communities you serve.
“Digitizing” Your Audience for Revenue Growth
Is your station streaming content on digital platforms?
Do you have effective tools for monetizing your digital audience?
If your answer to the second question is no … your station is losing money.
Want to turn your digital platform into a powerful revenue stream? Our Digitizing Your Audience panel at Radio Masters Sales Summit in Cincinnati will show you how!
Driving Sales With Technology And Innovation
Trying to sell radio advertising without offering digital options? Don’t be surprised if your prospects’ ad dollars go to your tech-savvy competitors!
Or maybe you are trying to sell digital assets but suspect you could be getting better results. Either way, if you are selling radio advertising, you and your team need to be at our Driving Sales with Technology and Innovation panel from 11:00-11:45 AM on September 14 at the 2023 Radio Masters Sales Summit in Cincinnati.
Gary Sandy Honored With Radio Wayne Influencer Award
In September of 1978, WKRP in Cincinnati made its debut.

Radio Ink is proud to announce the presentation of the first-ever Radio Wayne Influencer Award to Gary Sandy. Gary will attend the Radio Masters Sales Summit to receive his award!

It’s Time for Radio to Lean Into Its Strengths
Roy Williams believes in radio, and he wants you to believe in radio, too.
After all, it’s a lot easier to sell something when you truly believe in it. If you do believe in radio, Roy’s Radio Masters Sales Summit session has a lot to offer you.
Fair warning: You’ll be challenged, and you’ll see some sacred cows sent to slaughter. As Roy himself says, “If you are easily offended and feel you have nothing to learn, please do not attend my session.”
