Today is a significant moment for our team. There are so many people throughout the organization, including our engineers and technical teams, digital teams, traffic departments, and others in programming that have helped to implement this plan, including many working over this past weekend to ensure flawless execution. Please join me in celebrating our colleagues who are all stepping forward with their careers and curating the content that builds and strengthens community within our Alternative and Country listeners.
For now, we have work to do to make these changes effective and ensure they generate the improved experience we expect – for both our listeners and our clients. We are listening for feedback, we have research underway in key areas and will continue to share updates on both our insights and our achievements as we continue on our journey of evolution and growth. I hope you will take the time to listen to our stations in these formats today and throughout the week and would love to hear your feedback. Cheers to the incredible team making company history!
