Why Us?
This is a fun, creative business, but sometimes we get swallowed up with the day to day business and forget this. Jay will help the programmers, CREATE! Every day something different and fun needs to be happening on a radio station. They are living, breathing animals that need to be nurtured daily. Delight your listeners…surprise your listeners….make your listeners smile….engage your listeners. A successful programmer can never drive home feeling they “didn’t advance the ball”….they need to be inspired and thus inspire their team to greatness! With Tenshare Media, we can do this!
