Now That I Have Your Attention


Time to ramp it up Piggies!


Uncle Sherman keeps leaving the message on the KPIG Pig Squeals that says keep those cards and letters comin’ in!


I agree…don’t let up…if you are dissatisfied with the programming decisions of the management of KPIG, especially the cutting back of live DJs in favor of automation, let them know.


I’m not sure Mike Anthony, VP of Programming for the Monterey Bay is reading or caring much about your emails. But don’t stop writing manthony@radiomontereybay.com


Adam Nathanson, the owner of Mapleton Communications is really the one who’s eye and ear you want to catch. hr@mapletoncommunications.com


I believe Adam sees these emails…the more long winded ones he may just glance over, but he sees them. So try to keep it short and to the point…keep it honest and cordial, and, here’s the important part… do it everyday! Send an email when you get up and before you go to bed…send one at lunch and dinner and anytime you find yourself at your computer. Put something like “Dissatisfied KPIG Listener” in the subject line so he’ll know without fail what this email is about, and when he comes in to work in the morning, he will have no doubt that people are not happy…he may not even have to read further than the subject line!




He also my not care, but email daily, email hourly, email often!


And maybe you could send emails to the websites of your favorite KPIG Artists and KPIG Sponsors (if you haven’t already) and let them know what’s happening (if they don’t already know) and tell them how you feel and urge them to write (if they haven’t already). Hey, they have a stake in this too!


And don’t forget the faxes and phones and good old fashioned snail mail as lines of communication!!!




Get yourself a roll of stamps and a box of envelopes or some nice postcards and have at it!!


Here’s the info straight from the Mapleton website http://www.mapletoncomm.com/

Will it do any good? Maybe not…they’re the owners and they’ll do what ever they please…even if it only pleases them.


But, we’ll all be able to say that we cared and we tried!


So let’s ramp it up and be heard!


Keep those cards and letters, faxes, emails and phone calls coming in!!

Love you Pigs,


Ralphie

  1. I hope that three paragraphs isn't considered as too long of an email. I'm sticking to that length. Not really long paragraphs, but no more than three.
