One thing that I learned from my momma, you gotta plan ahead. There is a lot of food to buy. It takes time to get it ready to eat in a safe and semi-nutritious way. And, if guests are part of the equation, it might be good family politics not to put Grandpa Mike next to his brother-in-law who hasn\u2019t paid back that loan from back in 1984.<\/p>\n<p>All of this requires careful preparation.<\/p>\n<p>Good radio takes preparation, too. At Partnered Programming, our team of major market pros plan every show in every city we serve, just like we lived there. Preparation has become a lost art in these days of someone in San Antonio voice-tracking a show in Bangor. But not around our place. We practice preparation every day.<\/p>\n<p>On any given weekday, I personally prepare for about ten shows in cities from coast to coast. It takes time but the results of our preparation set us apart from a lot of folks who don\u2019t work quite as smart.<\/p>\n<p>Whether you voice track or do your show live, I have a few tips from my playbook that<br \/>\nI don\u2019t mind sharing. I hope that they are helpful to you and your station, but I mostly hope that they help your audience bond to your content.<\/p>\n<p>In no particular order, here are Partnered Programming\u2019s Preparation Policies:<\/p>\n<p>1.) Do the work \u2013 Commit yourself to the process of doing what it takes to engage one listener. That\u2019s right. I said one. While we may call ourselves broadcasters, we truly shine when we make that one-to-one connection that we all seek. Take that from Ted Lasso. Ted knows.<\/p>\n<p>2.) Set up a system \u2013 I use an old-fashioned prep sheet; not the kind that you buy from a syndicator, but the kind that lets me combine all of my research, my show schedule and plan, and the beginning, middle, and outcue for every break, into one place. To accomplish this, I request the music log out front. Music is still the central focus of most of my clients, so it is important that I understand what a listener wants, the songs that I\u2019ll spotlight, and the artists who perform them. It isn\u2019t just the song; it\u2019s a memory, some backstage insight, or just a feel-good message about the artist.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.)<\/strong>\u00a0Know your city\u00a0&#8211; The people who live there and what they do for a living, what they love, and what they care about in their community. I need to know how to pronounce street names, and which local TV anchor hangs out at Tim Horton\u2019s in Buffalo or Hurts in Springfield.<\/p>\n<p>I need to know that Kelly\u2019s store, Blooms in Motion, is right there by Driver\u2019s Edge, where Pedro works. I have to be able to talk about the people listeners meet every day and why those people make their town special. If my listener doesn\u2019t know them, I get the privilege of making the introduction and conveying why my listener should care about them.<\/p>\n<p>I need to know the price of gas. It seems like a little thing, but California prices are not Texas prices, and I need to know where the Misery and Joy Indexes fall in each city. I don\u2019t want to talk about the price of oil going up in a town affected by a huge spill off the coast.<\/p>\n<p>I need to be present in every break. Are your personalities present? I hear live shows that might as well be simulcasted from Croatia. Don\u2019t let that be what you\u2019re known for.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.)<\/strong>\u00a0Take advantage of others\u00a0&#8211; I love live reads. I know; most don\u2019t, but I do. Live reads are excellent opportunities to localize my presentation.<\/p>\n<p>I need cooperation from the market personnel. That means going the extra mile to communicate with the PDs and GSMs. It means chasing down other on-air folks to do pre-recorded crossovers with me to sound live, right before they take the reins, or I do.<\/p>\n<p>These are just a few ideas for you. Sure, they\u2019re basic and you would think that every on-air host would tackle them like it\u2019s the two-minute warning and their team is up by two, but the other guys have the ball on the 4-yard line\u2026but they don\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re on the air, I urge you to embrace your own preparation right now. Don\u2019t wait.<\/p>\n<p>If you supervise voice trackers, make sure that you ask them how they prepare.<\/p>\n<p>But if you supervise live talent and they aren\u2019t willing and ready to do all of these things, call me at (918) 284-3540. I can help.<\/p>\n<p><em>Written by Kenny Wall,\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partneredprogramming.com\/\"><strong><em>Partnered Programming<\/em><\/strong><\/a><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>and\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/clearmedianetwork.com\/\"><strong><em>Clear Media Network<\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><em>Country Format Specialist and Talent.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/clearmedianetwork.com\/\"><strong>Clear Media Network<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is a 24\/7 Format Syndication service that combines the most advanced automation and delivery technology, custom programming solutions, award-winning programmers\/talent and flexible format clocks.
