TATTOO REMOVAL SPOTS ON LITE

Don't ask why the name of the company escapes me at the moment because they spots run elsewhere but LITE is running these spots for bodyart removal kits. Now I'm sure many of their listeners have GROBAN ROCKS tattooed on their ankles but c'mon. Put'em on HOT & The Score where they belong.
 
If it is paying the bills, it'll play. Besides after you come back from your Vegas bender, you might have buyers remorse.....
 
Well, maybe 10 or 15 years ago Lite listeners got their tattoos, but now that they're older and have kids, it's time to get them removed.

I agree with Jacko... that's the perfect audience. The one most likely to have been young and crazy but now regrets it at the PTA meetings.
 
Another great example of the majority of the people on here not having a CLUE!!! Wrecking Balm didn't sign a contract with Lite, or any other individual station, ANYWHERE in America. It's part of an agency package, probably for either a show prep service, or imaging service, or something of that nature. Life's gotta be pretty boring when you go out of your way to start a thread about some barter spot...
 
It IS probably a barter spot or part of a national sales program (liek Gorilla Glue a couple of yrs ago), so I wouldn't be surprised to hear it on Lite, Pro-AM, Pro-FM, The Score, Hot 106, HJJ, HJY, Cat Country, etc

Like I said before, if it pays the bills, it will go on
 
Unfortunately I may be resorting to Wrecking Balm in the near future
 
How about that awful spot with Tanya Roberts talking about how wonderful Las Vegas is. Now they've gotten better.
Its Tanya Roberts talking with a local jock about how fun Vegas is to visit. One spot is actually done with Carter Allen from WZLX.

Hey Ed thanks for telling radio people how radio works. Obviously Wrecking Balm didn't buy spots on Lite. The topic at hand is whether it would have worked better to place the spots on other stations in the cluster. I'm sure they are on others but don't belong on Lite.
 
When a contract for service (i.e. imaging workparts, showprep) is signed, you dont get a choice what the barter spots are. They come in, some pee-on part timer throws them into automation, they run. Now, are you telling me that a "Lite" listener (let's say for example, a 37 year old female) has no chance of getting a tatoo in college that she may like removed? If there's any station it SHOULDN'T be on in that cluster its PRO-F given the great number of listeners who aren't even old enough to get a tatoo. Mountains out of a mole hill...
 
OK we disagree. Over. I don't believe in discussing something indefinitely. No one on these boards has ever convinced anyone of something they don't agree with. Someone listening to Lite has a tat I'm sure. Someone listening to HJY is born again. Someone listening to PRO-FM has a masters degree. I just think the spot sounded out of place considering the formats on other stations where it's being run.
 
edradio...your comment:

"some pee-on part timer throws them into automation..."....very classy
