Broadcastbid.com Effectively Delivers Wake-up Call To Attendees At The NAB Radio Show 2005

Radio and Internet Marriage: A Proven Blueprint for Success

Amidst grand trade show displays, distinguished panel discussions, conferences and press announcements at last week's National Association of Broadcasters Radio Show 2005 in Philadelphia, an industry-altering message emerged in a simple yet clever fashion.

Attendees reached into their show bags to find the normal flyers, imprinted giveaways, trade show program and the words; "When the NAB Radio Show is Done, All the Parties are Over, And you are Still Sick of Not Earning More Revenue for your Station - We are here to help! BroadcastBid.com." Words that normally would not be so powerful, yet in this case were printed on an Air Motion Sickness Bag.

BroadcastBid.com continued to spread its message throughout the NAB Radio Show 2005 with color brochures and full-page ads expressing the need for the marriage of radio and Internet, beyond that of simple website presence, in order to ensure the future of commercial radio.

"BroadcastBid.com's simple private-label web-based auction and classifieds system is the first obvious step for stations to build additional revenues with the 90 percent of merchants in their markets who cannot afford airtime," said Daniel Bordui, managing partner of BroadcastBid.com.
"There is absolutely no doubt this format works--The success of E-bay proves this."

BroadcastBid is the launch pad for personal listener portals that will also include streaming radio to computer/personal devices, news, sports, weather, tickets, movies. These portals could become the source for local media and online purchases.

BroadcastBid.com instantly provides radio stations the ability to establish a private label online auction locally, selling merchant gift certificates, fantasy and promotional items and listener classifieds. The system is easy-to-use with set-up under 48 hours and completely turn-key. Revenues are immediately generated from auction sales, listing fees and web traffic advertising.

Recurring sales opportunities are established for long-term purposes with the highly targeted profiling of the listener registrations, visitors, bidders and winners records.

"Feedback indicates that the message was well received and complimented speaker conferences targeted at the Internet as radio's future," said William Mobley, CEO of Nextelligence, Inc. parent company of BroadcastBid.com.
"Nextelligence, Inc. knows industry specific ecommerce solutions better than anyone, and BroadcastBid was developed specifically for radio and the Internet to merge now and in the future."
