April 5th:



Doug Kirk the President and CEO of Durham Radio joins us to talk about why he's hopeful in about business and what it's like to be an independent broadcaster in the day and age of big business broadcasting companies.


"Company Presidents please note - your current marketers are about to make the same mistake as their predecessors, ignoring the 50+
consumer until they're one themselves and retired."


We will also talk to Deborah Filler www.creativeawarenesscenter.org and Jack Brice 50 plus expert...join in on the discussion as we have a round table on the 50 something market place. As of this year the first baby boomers are hitting retirement age and we're going to check the pulse of those 50+. We will look at issues and opportunities that this market provides.
