Lindsay Taylor, Publicity Manager, Swallow Hill Music"Swallow Hill Music and Colorado Public Radio share the same values, and the same type of audience. Our patrons consistently rank KCFR and its affiliates as the radio stations that they listen to most. We know anecdotally that our last few years of underwriting have significantly increased the number of people that have heard about Swallow Hill Music and what we do. More measurably, our school programs since we began investing our advertising dollars in CPR underwriting have grown nearly 10% every year, and attendance at the summer concerts that we produce has grown by almost 20%."
Tom Hartman, President, Kitchen Distributors“CPR reaches our client base and audience on a more frequent basis. Clients appreciate working with companies and organizations that support causes. I think sponsorship gives us the opportunity to show we are interested in more than bottom-line results and willing to invest in the betterment of our community.”
Kelli Rohrig, Co-owner, Mountain Organic Landscaping"My name is Kelli Rohrig, I am the Co-owner of Mountain Organic Landscaping and Irrigation and we proudly sponsor Colorado Public Radio. We think it’s your obligation to the world to contribute if you have the means to do so. We sponsor CPR because we believe in free information for all, and it’s the right thing to do."
Jeff Hovorka, Director of Sales & Marketing, Denver Center for the Performing Arts"We’ve been underwriting for many years. Just like the DCPA is an integral part of the culture and creativity of this city, Colorado Public Radio is an integral part of our community. The DCPA is proud to support this community resource. Our partnership communicates our message and our mission, and reaches committed arts patrons and theatre goers, and that results in ticket sales."
Christine Benero, President, Mile High United Way“We underwrite because it is a great investment in advancing the common good. Our phone calls increase, we get more volunteers, we get more financial investment, and I would tell other non-profits that this is the best investment that they can make to leverage their message, to leverage their dollars and together to make our community stronger.”
Michael McGuire, Dean, University of Denver’s University College"We have been underwriting Colorado Public Radio for nearly two decades. Through underwriting, University College is able to reach a highly educated and motivated audience at an affordable rate, all while supporting a cornerstone of our community. By supporting CPR, we are helping to keep our community vibrant. It is an obvious choice for us."
Ken Wright, Principal Engineer, Wright Water Engineers"We are a Denver consulting firm and we underwrite CPR. We support Colorado Public Radio for the simple reason that we like the news and good music. We have a feeling that the benefit to cost ratio of supporting Colorado Public Radio is two to three times that of regular advertising. It helps our bottom line, and we are proud to do it!"
Stephen Smith, Founder, Grande River Vineyards, Palisade, CO“We believe that the investment that we make in CPR is of great value because it is an integral part of our community. It also really reaches our target audience and our customers appreciate it.”
-Fred Taylor, Managing Director and Partner, Beacon Pointe Advisors“Sponsoring CPR puts us at the forefront of great companies in Colorado that care about their state and
community. It is priceless and doesn't feel like advertising. More often than not when prospects contact our firm they thank us for supporting CPR. Sponsoring is good for business and good for Colorado.”
John Skrabec, Founder, Live Urban Real Estate"Live Urban Real Estate Brokers have been getting great feedback from our clients and we can track specific real estate sales that have come from our presence on the air on Colorado Public Radio."
Rich Harris, Principal, Harris Law Firm“We’re proud to underwrite Colorado Public Radio and we’re seeing the results in the bottom line of our business. Our website numbers have increased and we track pretty carefully. We’ve also seen an increase in the referrals to our firm and people specifically site our radio campaign with CPR as the reason.”
Garry Duncan, Owner, Leadership Connections"We have only experienced two kinds of advertising that works for our business, one is direct mail, and the other has been CPR. Because it is working, and most others do not it is much less expensive. Everyone is saturated with in-your-face commercials and screaming ads that are over bearing. Clicking through channels says it all. The way CPR presents is smooth, comfortable, and memorable, so we don’t get lost in a wall of screaming commercials. Due to the airtime last October and November, we have closed over $10,000 in revenue and have three times that in the pipeline."
