***THERE ARE ONLY 7 COPIES OF THIS ITEM REMAINING***
When you talk about "radio warfare," only one company in the world comes to mind: Clear Channel. Michael Albl holds the title of Clear Channel's "Vice President of Mental Warfare."
And that title isn't a joke; both he and Clear Channel look at radio as a constant battle against anyone who wants a single one of their listeners or a single dollar of their advertising revenue.
Michael (who in real life is a very nice guy) specializes in Mental Warfare - destroying the competition as quickly & efficiently as possible. Michael will let you in on the secrets of winning your programming & marketing battles in radio's new world order.
He'll walk you through the action steps you must take to survive in a landscape that is shifting against you every day.
He'll inculcate you with Victory Essentials. And he'll make you intimately familiar with and ready to fight the five wars you must fight simultaneously.
Welcome to the 21st Century Radio Wars! (Odds are your competition attended this session "live." Can you really afford not to learn what they already know?)
Verbatim Reviews
"When I become blinded by day-to-day warfare, I don't always see the obvious. But Michael's presentation brought the passion back! The most valuable thing I learned is an organization of the total warfare plan. I never heard it presented in such a clear, basic way."
"Great description of what warfare is and how to win. He pulled the pin...the bomb went off...My competition will feel the shrapnel!"
"For Michael being a Clear Channel guru, it was a pleasant surprise for him to 'give up the store' of knowledge on radio warfare.
