Inside Music MediaJerry Del Colliano

Two weeks from now we will be having conversations together about the most relevant issues that face the radio industry today.

Changing the way we talk to audiences as Millennials now make up the entire 18-34 year old demographic and yet there are still 70 million Baby Boomers and 45 million Gen Xers to consider.

Growing on-air revenue in an era of large companies driving rates down with bonuses and by selling across their platforms.

Making money from digital which is now not just an option but mandatory and yet few stations derive significant revenue from digital.

And doing a Millennial radio makeover to make our stations sound more inviting to a large audience that has turned to their own devices.

Driving future innovation is new thinking based on a better understanding of generational media.

Jerry Del Colliano invites you to join radio broadcasters and digital executives for a one-day interactive conference focused on leadership, responding to disruption and new content, programming and sales models.

We invite you to see the schedule and drill down into the topics that are so relevant to radio at the present time.
