Unfortunately, the execution fell way short of the promise. To begin with, the announcing line-up was virtually the same as that of the previous format and many of these presenters would not be classified as Feel Good\u2026..some sounded disinterested and one even made sarcastic comments about some of the songs. The music also retained an urban skew from the previous format\u2026..and as you would be aware, some of these urban songs have lyrics that are far from Feel Good.<\/p>\n<p>Everything on the station should have gone through the Feel Good filter\u2026\u2026the talent, the music, the promotions, the marketing, the production, the look and feel of the digital platforms.<\/p>\n<p>If it doesn\u2019t pass the Feel Good test, then it doesn\u2019t get to air.<\/p>\n<p>Think of each element of your station as a pillar\u2026. each pillar supports the brand promise.<\/p>\n<p>If a pillar doesn\u2019t support the brand then it weakens it.<\/p>\n<p>A brand promise must not only be stated clearly to the audience and provide them with a benefit they actually want (not something <em>Sie<\/em> think they want) but it must also be reflected in the way the promise is delivered.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Jackson, Group Program Director of the Nova Network, on smooth\u2019s brand promise: <em>\u201c<\/em><em>We will keep true to our more music less talk promise, but also make people feel relaxed and better about their day.<\/em><em>\u00a0We are very clear about the brand and its essence<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And guess what\u2026\u2026smooth 95.3 is the #1 music station in Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>As I mentioned in a previous article <a href=\"http:\/\/bprworld.com\/de\/news\/just-because-you-say-it-does-not-make-it-so\/\"><em>Nur weil man es sagt, hei\u00dft das nicht zwangsl\u00e4ufig, dass es so ist!<\/em><\/a><em> , <\/em>a good starting point to find out if you\u2019re actually being true to your brand promise is by asking the audience.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By David Kidd, BPR Listener loyalty begins with\u00a0trust.
