Background: |
Under contract to the State of New Mexico Securities Division, Desert Sky Communications and Carol Jones, co-owner of New Mexico Investment Advisers, created a radio series for consumer-investors called "Investing Your Money." The series has been running on five public radio stations in New Mexico. |
|
|
|
||
|
Mission: |
"Investing Your Money" gives radio listeners objective, reliable, up-to-date, and easily understandable information about how to invest their money wisely. | |
|
|
||
|
Format: |
131, one-minute spots. The spots are run five to seven days each week for 26 weeks (six months), and may be repeated immediately over the following six months. |
|
|
|
||
|
Cost: |
Free to radio stations. |
|
|
|
||
|
Description and Target Audiences: |
The series could be subtitled "Investing 101." It is actually a basic course in investing, designed to appeal primarily to people who have disposable income, but have not yet learned about investment products and how to use them. Both newly active and knowledgeable investors should also find the series valuable. An original "signature piece" has been composed for the series and is used as a music bed under each spot. The series is voiced by an experienced professional announcer, Carol Eason, and was recorded and produced for broadcast at Mountain Run Recording Studios in Albuquerque, New Mexico. |
