Hoosier Country 105.1 & B97
|
Frank Padour was born and raised in Illinois and moved to Indiana when he was accepted to Indiana University Jacobs School of Music.
|
He began working for Sound Management LLC., B97 and Hoosier Country radio in April 2023. Immediately, he was impressed by the work ethic and commitment of the station to its listeners.
|
Being an Account Executive means that sales need to be made, however, we sell when we know we can make a positive impact on a business and community at large. To show our commitment to the surrounding communities and businesses, if a business has never advertised with B97 or Hoosier Country radio before, if you invest $500 in a radio campaign, we will put forth another $500 to your advertising. We are invested in your business and want your business to prosper. We cannot succeed unless you do!
|
Radio is still alive and well, and it works with the right implementation. Needless to say, Frank is glad to be back in the radio industry with B97 and Hoosier Country radio.
