Finally!

The real reasons why Clear Channel – a company that fired 3% of its workforce just 7 weeks ago – is so hell bent to make employees take their online survey.

The one that has almost no one complying to date.

The one that Clear Channel executives are getting pushy about now.

Why did Bob Pittman and John Hogan all of a sudden take a “nice” pill?

If you’ve been thinking about subscribing and would like to access this story, let me tell you what you will get.

1. How Clear Channel honchos are now starting to bully employees into taking the survey.
2. What’s the giveaway – the one big mistake Clear Channel appears to be making that makes employees think their comments will be tracked.
3. Two ways the information could be used against unsuspecting employees if they make the mistake of answering the questions.
4. How taking the survey could help the company decide who stays and who goes in the next round of RIFs (reductions in force).
5. When the RIFs will startup again – they are becoming more urgent and you’ll want to know the earlier date that is being discussed.

Thanks for making my fourth annual Media Solutions Lab the best ever.  98% of those who attended said in an exit “report card” that it met or exceeded their expectations.  This teaching seminar is never recorded so plan on attending next year.

Cumulus-owned WABC, New York has hit an all-time ratings low.

WABC's 2.2 ties their absolute worst share since they dropped Top 40 music and became a talk station.

Back then – all the way back in the Winter of 1984, WABC posted a 2.2 share.

It took almost a year for Cumulus to do what hadn’t been done in almost 30 years – tank the talk station.

Look, I could dump on Cumulus but what’s the use.

They just don’t know what they’re doing in any format and don’t seem to care.  That’s not their game.

What I am really interested in is why a radio staple, the talk format, is not just declining but taking a nosedive.

But there are a few things that could be done …

1. Why an aging audience is not the real culprit and what is.
2. What the next generation – the one that represents two thirds of the money demo 18-49 for the rest of this decade – considers real talk radio.
3. The biggest talk radio turnoffs to young listeners.
4. Why the really big killer of talk radio isn’t even something that is happening on the air – and it’s scary.
5. Two instant fixes that could help a declining talk station now – one costs money and one requires the smarts to do it before it’s too late.

My sources say that conversations are now underway as part of a series of Clear Channel management conference calls to move up the company’s usual end of the year reduction in force to the first quarter of 2013.

This has many serious ramifications for Clear Channel employees.

I wanted to get the information I have gathered out to those affected and to employees of other radio groups who are also feeling financial pressure to fire employees.

If you’ve been thinking about subscribing and would like to access this story, let me tell you what you will get.

1. How soon could the end of year cutbacks (usually 3% of the workforce) be moved up.
2. Does that mean that the traditional holiday firings are off.
3. What’s the trigger that Clear Channel is waiting for to advance the firings.
4. Who will be included in the hurry-up firings – the positions easiest to eliminate quickly.
5. How massive would this staff reduction be.

There is no way out for radio owners.

Radio industry revenues are declining every year.

This year when 2012 numbers are tallied, an industry breakeven will have the happy talk trade press gushing.

Analysts are already predicting a 5% decline in radio industry revenue for 2013.  So if you could manage to cut that down to -2% or breakeven, you’d be doing great.

That’s not a growth industry and as pained as it makes me to say it, radio has seen its finer day.

But don’t take it from me because the major radio groups already know this.

The next big thing is mergers.

Merger of equals.

Merger of unequals.

Just merge with anyone to bury the debt and go big.

You may not want to believe that the radio industry is going to see more consolidation but it’s going to happen even without changes in the Telecommunications Act.

This is a big deal.

And it may begin by the end of 2013 and certainly in 2014.

Once radio groups start merging, those that remain won’t want to be the last one out.

Let’s look at the potential matchups.

If you are a subscriber, thank you for joining our group.  Just click through and unlock the content.

If you’ve been thinking about subscribing and would like to access this story, let me tell you what you will get.

1. How many mega media companies might be interested in buying Bob Pittman’s media + entertainment company.  I’ve counted 3.
2. Does Cumulus have another merger option other than CBS Radio.
3. What might the new owners of SiriusXM like to put with their newly acquired satellite radio company.
4. Could Barry Diller buy a radio company – I’ve got the surprising one I think he’d jump at.
5. Which non-radio and TV companies are potential owners of a radio group at the right price.  Keep an eye on these two big merger possibilities.
6. Why – suddenly – are buyers interested in radio groups that are losing money.

Social communication continues to grow in popularity and significance but traditional media companies such as radio stations continue to miss the opportunity to breakaway from contest texting, jock posting, website babysitting and relying on streaming for their digital future.

The timing is right to focus on social media strategies that will work.

Analysts say radio revenue will continue to decline in the year ahead and by December – 12 short months from now – total ad revenue will be down another 5%.

Now is the time to learn the new opportunities ahead for social media and we’ll cover them at the upcoming Media Solutions Lab.

Radio owners are getting angrier.

They have applied the whip to their programming, sales and management people like a jockey lays into a racehorse.

But in their minds, the employees are coming up lame.

Not able to save Cumulus from another consecutive losing revenue month that started in 2009 and an apparent growing intolerance by Clear Channel management of its employees in a company that yearns to be anything but a radio company.

This time it’s nasty.

Owners are getting revenge.

Putting a big time hurt on employees by affecting their wages, benefits and whatever is left of their job security.

Here are some of the outlandish things radio groups are doing to get revenge on employees they clearly don’t value but who are too dependent on their jobs to quit.

I’ve been working on the Lesson Plan for my upcoming seminar and just wanted to share some of the things I will talk about that can help you disrupt the media business in the coming months.

Changing it, modifying it or keeping it the same just will not work in an era when digital technology and a new generation is impacting the industry.

1. Radio that plays only the latest releases from any artist.
2. New research that shows how to use two voices to get better ad results (and ratings).
3. Build brand names not radio formats.

DISRUPT!

4. A guaranteed way to attract young listeners to radio that they cannot resist.
5. Rename your radio station after this big promotion, not the format on the air.
6. Go heavily with games and contests.  In an era when games drive digital use, radio stops playing them.  That’s so wrong.  The new age way to do radio games and contests.  Maybe even every few minutes.

DISRUPT!

   7.  Tell media buyers you will build a digital content site for advertisers spending over X   dollars a year.              

   8.   Turn your station into a Preview Channel with this content on it (this alone is worth the conference registration price alone).

   9.  Kill the hot clock – got the guts?  Here’s how to build something money demos will like better.

DISRUPT!

10. Build revenue streams around content pods.

11. Create your own social media network – Twitter and Facebook won’t do.  I did it.  I’ll show you.

12. Make station format changes every week (you read that right!).

DISRUPT!

13. Kill long stop sets with this approach no one has ever thought of.

14. Game the People Meter – outsmart it.  It’s easier than you think.

15. Learn from the enemy – what your digital competitors can do to make you stronger.

16. New evidence – what young listeners (two-thirds of the 18-49 money demo for the rest of this decade) want if they are to listen to radio in the digital age.

17. Do an expensive, over the top live 6-hour morning show and then repeat it all day.

DISRUPT!

18.And here’s one more move to make after that makes you rich.

19. Air programming with no beginning and end.

20. How to play news like a hit record (and I’m not talking about Total Traffic’s news). 

21. For increased billing, add your salespeople into content creation.

DISRUPT THE MEDIA BUSINESS!

You can see, I’ve been busy and excited about bringing you the very latest intelligence to get a leg up on the year ahead.

The media future passes through digital content, social networking, short form marketable video and mobile apps.

Perhaps you saw the new Arbitron RADAR numbers for radio that came out recently.

Weekly time spent listening dropped 28 minutes a week from March 2011 to March 2012.  More disturbing news was that in some key demographics that men 25-34 are spending 51 minutes less with radio each week.

These declines are nothing new, but they are getting more drastic and more persistent.

It doesn’t mean that radio content is dead.  It means that it’s time to wake up and disrupt the radio business.

Just as Google disrupted the Internet and Apple disrupted the music business, phones and tablets.

The year ahead promises to be one of the most challenging and difficult because the same old answers will no longer work.

But the solutions are not going to find you.

You have to act to find them.

Media buyers are buying digital media at a record pace.

Forget the economy, they want all things digital.

The best producers of digital content should be radio stations or the people who have worked in the radio industry.

That’s where my Media Solutions Lab comes in.

In one day, see the future. 

Grasp the opportunities.

That’s what is causing all this confrontation between traditional and digital media.

Baby boomers vs. Millennials.

That changes now at the 2013 Media Solutions Lab.

There is no way a broadcaster – traditional or digital – can succeed going forward without mastering the needs, desires, sociology and technology of the Millennial generation.

No way.

But you’re going to hear an expert, arguably the best there is and author of books on the 80 million Millennials shaking up society and the media business.

Morley Winograd is preparing a session on "Media in the Millennial Era: Ten Tips for Success."

Some of the tips will be about understanding Millennials which radio people currently don’t get.

And some of the tips will be about using that understanding to generate some new opportunities for their stations.

If you’ll forgive me for being blunt, this type of knowledge about the essence of the future is not going to jump off this page and find you.

You must commit a day to go after it.

The media future passes through digital content, social networking, short form marketable video and mobile apps.

• The importance of rebranding in the digital age.  We’ll show you how to stop building your brand around what’s on your station and rebrand it around what your station stands for.
• Why the biggest popular music hit of 2012 involved little to no radio airplay.  You will reconsider how you choose music and how to play it.

• The awesome power of “Two Voices”.  New research shows that two voices are more popular than one and more effective for entertainment and commercials.

Great change is coming as traditional media collides with new media at full force in the year ahead.

And, audiences are changing forcing media executives to look for answers in places they’ve never gone before.

For instance, consider these audience-driven changes coming your way in 2013:

• The importance of personalization.  Tough for radio.  Even tough for digital.  We’ll identify the new path toward personalization.  Without personalization, you’re done.
• That building influence is becoming more important than audience.  Learn how to build influence (not to be confused with ratings) for a better return on revenue.
• The end of the digital download.  First, broadcasting declines.  Now digital music downloads.  What’s next is what we will focus on at this year’s Media Solutions Lab.
• Facebook’s replacement has arrived.  Good news unless your social media efforts center around Facebook.  Even Twitter has peaked.  But I’m going to show you what your audience is falling for right now – and in a day or two you can be there, too.

With four weeks until the 2013 Media Solutions Lab, it is time to make the decision to pursue new media discoveries you don’t currently know about to remain competitive.

2013 will be the most challenging year for traditional media – radio, video and music.  The same old strategies will not work as audiences have morphed into voracious users of listener driven content. 

And there will be no easy answers for digital media, either.

The answers are not going to find you.

You are going to have to go after the answers.

That’s why the next Media Solutions Lab January 30^th at The Phoenician Resort in Scottsdale, AZ is a special full-day teaching seminar and refresher for digital media in the year ahead.  It is the most comprehensive, up-to-the-minute source of reliable information for the changing radio, media, digital and music industries.

Our mission is to provide those facing the many challenges ahead with authoritative, cutting edge information to not just survive in changing times, but to thrive.
