Media Professionals Speak Out: Clear Channel, Jack FM, K-Hits
When evaluating any service provider, you gain unique insight by asking the people who work alongside them daily. In the case of Creative Media Partners, that means turning to media professionals at radio stations and networks who evaluate advertising agencies constantly. Their perspective carries special weight because they see the full range of agency performance and can compare approaches based on years of direct experience.
Richard Austin, Account Manager at Clear Channel Media & Entertainment, offers this assessment: “Mike has the rare combination of talents of being extremely creative and exceptionally analytical.” That balance is harder to find than it sounds. Many creative professionals lack analytical rigor. Many analytical thinkers lack creative spark. Mike combines both. Austin continues: “His ability to create and manage in business is also matched with the genuine interest he invests in his clients.” That genuine interest transforms a business relationship into a partnership. Austin’s strong recommendation reflects this: “I strongly recommend Mike Rogers as a business consultant, creative director, media negotiator, and advertising agent to anyone who wants to grow a profitable business.”
Jeff McMurray, Program Director at Jack FM and KHTK Sports 1140, offers perspective from someone deeply embedded in media operations. His take is direct: “Your agency, Creative Media Partners stands head & shoulders above those with huge staffs and big glass buildings. You are among a handful that get-it.” In an industry where bigger often means better in conventional thinking, McMurray’s endorsement of a smaller, more focused operation reflects his recognition of something more important than size: understanding and execution. He goes further: “If I were to start a business and put together a marketing plan, your number would be the first one I’d call.” That’s the kind of endorsement you don’t give lightly.
Henry Grambergu from 92.1 K-Hits adds his own perspective: “Mike is a ‘go to’ kind of guy when you need an idea and then want it implemented. For my money, you can’t find a better or more qualified person for your advertising and marketing needs.” The phrase “go to guy” speaks to reliability and competence. In media, where relationships matter and reputations are currency, being someone people trust to execute is everything.
These endorsements matter because they come from people in the industry who have nothing to gain by recommending any particular agency. They speak from direct observation and professional integrity. When media professionals this caliber consistently recommend the same marketing partner, it’s worth paying attention.
