How radio promotion works here College, community and specialty radio — the stations where a record still gets played because one person decided to play it. We service the programmers directly, physical or digital as each station prefers, and we follow up with the people who actually build the playlists. Adds are tracked and reported weekly. You see which stations added the record, where it is charting, and where it is not moving, in the same report every week for the length of the campaign. No summary at the end that you have to take on faith. We will tell you before we start where we think a record can chart. Specialty radio rewards particular kinds of records and quietly ignores others, and a realistic ceiling set in week one is worth more than an optimistic one you find out about in week eight.
