Radio. Radio! RADIO!!! (So many ways you can say it!) We are taking the plunge into radio advertising! After talking and planning and writing ad copy for the last few weeks today was the big day and we recorded our spots!
We were both nervous but the kind of nervous where you don’t talk about it – you just both know it is there. The morning was busy as we got our peanut dropped off at Primrose, we got the installers going, met a contractor who was placing an order, sent in payroll and generally tried to get our desks in order. By 9:15 we were on our way!
We recorded at Clear Channel Studios in St Louis Park. From the minute the elevator doors opened we knew we were in a creative space! Shiny stainless steel looking floors, bright colors and lots of pictures were everywhere! We got there early, of course, so we were treated to a wonderful conversation with a studio exec who was so warm and positive and genuine that all of our nerves melted away on the spot.
He gave us the quick tour of the offices where we went into the very very cool Studio C and we were able to catch a glimpse of KDWB, KFAN and K102 recording their shows. We popped in quick to meet Lee Valsvick and we ran into Keri Noble and Adam West in the hallways. If radio personalities you hear all the time can be normal people in jeans and a cozy hoodie then what could we possibly be worried about, right?
By the time we entered our studio to record we were ready! Both our marketing guru Loni and the sound genius Dave made it really easy to get a finished product we are excited about. Doesn't Steve look professional?
Steve might say it wasn’t really easy, but no one gets it perfect the first time. We recorded the same words and the same phrases about one hundred times. We edited copy on the spot, we swapped our phrases, we re-ordered things, and we recorded until it was perfect.
Literally one hour later we walked out with 2 completed 15 second spots. It felt incredibly productive and wonderful.
Our spots will be running on KFAN and on MYTALK 107.1 starting next week in the 6-9am slots. Tune in on your way to work and when you hear our ads tell us. Write on our Facebook Page and tell us what you think. WE hope you love them as much as we do!

Fall Home Improvement Projects. Fall. Did I just say Fall?
It doesn’t matter if you like it or not, it’s here. Say goodbye to summer. Pack up your beach bags and put the sunscreen away. I will miss the feeling of the hot sun on my face and the spontaneous trips to the beach more than anyone. BUT… I also love fall. What can I say? I am a Minnesotan through and through.
I love the changing leaves and the cool mornings. I love anything cooked with apple and pumpkin. I love sweatshirts with hoods and fall TV and decorating the house for all the holidays. I love cooking comfort food. I love planning family Halloween costumes and starting to think about holiday gift giving. But enough about me.
For lots of people fall is also the harsh reality that winter is right around the corner. And every home improvement project that was put off during the lovely summer is now a priority once again. So I ask you this, what is your fall home improvement project?
Attic insulation? Stop letting all that energy escape through your attic. If you feel like you're put off attic insulation too long already, this is your year. It will make an amazing difference to the comfort of your home.
Gutter Topper! Stop wasting your time cleaning the gutters! Gutter topper is less expensive that you think and with all the time you save not cleaning your gutters, you can install even more holiday lights!
If you're concerned about your roof – have someone take a look at it. Replacing a bad roof before winter will give you peace of mind against ice dams and water leaks.
Is your front door drafty? Is the sill rotted away so you have one of those crazy draft stoppers to keep the wind out? Let’s replace it. We have a variety of front door styles available - from the very basic to the very ornate. We are confident we have the style of door and the price point that will work for your house. Plus, with our composite threshold, it is guaranteed never to rot so you can throw that draft stopper away once and for all.
Storm windows are a pain. Replace windows with a double or triple pane glass for a higher energy efficiency rating and eliminate the need for storm windows. Start with getting the worst windows replaced now and do the rest in the spring. 100% of homeowners who replace their windows are amazed at what a difference the new ones make. Rooms are instantly warmer. The fresh look of the new windows makes the rooms look newer, too.
No matter which of these projects is your top priority, Universal Windows Direct is here to help you . Call us today for a free, no obligation estimate. We offer financing programs for qualified buyers and get your home improvemnts done within 8 weeks. Don’t delay!
