Entercom Announces new Agency of Record and
Unveils Latest ROSEY 105 TV campaign
Magneto Brand Advertising is named Agency of Record for Entercom Portland Radio Group and creates follow-up TV campaign for Nelson and Terry on Rosey 105.
Portland, OR, April 30, 2002 -- Entercom Portland Radio Group has tapped Magneto Brand Advertising as its Agency of Record. The announcement comes as Magneto recently completed production on a second round of TV spots for Entercoms Rosey 105 (KRSK-FM).
The latest Rosey commercials follow the highly successful Fall 2001 campaign featuring the zany antics of morning host Nelson while also introducing his straight laced sidekick Terry. The previous series of spots promoted Nelsons arrival to Rosey 105 and also contributed to an enormous ratings jump for KRSK, (up from #9 to #1, Women 25-34) according to the fall 2001 Arbitron ratings book. The new ads follow a progressive theme that features Terry experiencing humorously bizarre nightmares about Nelsons fiendish behavior.
The latest campaign began airing on April 8th and will run for six weeks on local broadcast and cable outlets. As with the fall campaign, Magneto continues to work with Run Spot Run Media Inc. on planning and placing the current media buy.
Magneto has done an outstanding job of creating funny, compelling TV spots", says Dan Persigehl, Program Director for Rosey. So far, the reaction from our listeners has been very positive. Nelsons move to Rosey 105 has been a big reason for our increased listenership and these spots have been instrumental in promoting our morning show."
Magneto Partner and Creative Director, Craig Opfer, stated, Were excited about our continuing relationship with Entercom. Theyre smart people who understand the value of simple strategies and unique creative. They asked us to build on the success of the fall campaign while also introducing Terry as Nelsons unnerved" partner. Nelsons unique brand of humor was key to both campaigns and we believe that these new spots reflect the whimsy that Nelson and Terry bring to Rosey each morning."
Suzanne Loseth, Director of Marketing at Entercom, said that We were thrilled with the new Nelson and Terry spots and suspect that once again theyll resonate with the Rosey audience. We never know what Magneto will come up with next but theyve earned our trust as marketing partners."
The Entercom Portland Radio Group currently operates six stations in the market including: KGON FM, KKSN FM, KKSN AM, KNRK FM, KRSK FM (Rosey), and KFXX AM (The Fan).
Magneto Brand Advertising provides a full range of creative and strategic marketing services to develop campaigns including television, radio, print, direct marketing, promotions and interactive, as well as media planning and buying.
