Sponsorship Opportunties

What is underwriting? 
Program underwriting provides a way for businesses, corporations, individuals, foundations, and other organizations to help WGLS-FM develop and acquire programs. Unlike commercial broadcast stations which receive funding from advertising sales, WGLS-FM depends on contributions from the communities we serve.

Visibility 
Program underwriting on WGLS-FM is more than just a commercial spot. Sponsorship on WGLS-FM gets your message across and demonstrates your support for education and local broadcast service. It also gains widespread identification for your company as being socially aware, concerned, and interested in issues that affect South Jersey.

Marketing Benefits 
As a WGLS-FM underwriter, your business benefits through cost-effective, specifically-targeted marketing to a well-educated, quality-conscious audience. Your business receives name recognition without commercial "clutter," and builds your business image with the WGLS-FM listener.

Contribution 
The underwriting contributions reflect the costs we pay for the production and broadcast of a program series. The minimum underwriting package runs for 13 weeks.

Since the underwriting announcement acknowledges your donation to WGLS-FM, we must receive your contribution before we can legally air your sponsorship credit.

Guidelines 
Underwriting credits can include:

  • The underwriter's name, or that of a subsidiary, operating division or parent company.
  • Location and duration of business.
  • Business phone number.
  • Value-neutral descriptions of a product line or business (Co-op funds can be used).
  • Trade names, product or service listings that identify the sponsor.

Underwriting credits cannot contain:

  • Comparative or qualitative descriptions, price information, or a call to action.
  • Mentions of discounts, specials, or savings percentages.
