Sounding natural can mean anything from not editing
out every breath so conversation has a normal cadence to
laughing in the middle of a spot. “If you are lucky enough
to have someone who can really tell a story in 30 or 60 seconds when they laugh, giggle, pause or hiccup, it’s real.”
It also means staying away from catchphrases, not repeating copy over and over, and not overdosing on sound effects

and production elements. Instead, Marshall suggests focusing

on when to turn down the volume on sound effects and even [email protected]
using silence to accentuate important copy points.
Another caveat: Avoid phone numbers. “Most people are not going to write down
a number. They are going to listen for the site and go online. It’s just my opinion,
but I’ve never agreed with putting phone numbers in spots since the Web became
so prevalent.”
Along with being natural, to create a truly great campaign, Marshall says spots
have to be unique to grab the listener’s attention. “Normal or mundane won’t catch
anybody’s ear anymore. They are numb to it.”
To find inspiration Marshall looks at the websites of businesses that are similar
to the one she’s building a spot for to get a feel for the industry. Then she sets out
to create an emotional hook—something that tugs at the heart strings and makes
the listener feel or want something. For example, instead of a Valentine’s Day spot

a women say, “I’d be happy if my husband brought me even one rose this year.”
PAGE 2 OF 9
Interscope recording artist Zedd (right) recently stopped by Clear
Channel dance/top 40 WKTU (103.5 KTU) New York to discuss his new
single “Spectrum” with host Hollywood Hamilton.
For example, at some point in time, nearly everyone has worried about being the
victim of a crime. Cynaumon tapped into that when he was creating a spot for Lifelock, a service that protects people from identity theft. In the spot he told the story of
a woman who not only had her identity stolen but unexpectedly wound up face to face
with the thieves. “Everyone has had some anxiety about a crime or been in a place
that made you nervous,” he says. “Once we tackled that, the advertising took off.”
Of course not every product presents such an obvious shared experience
to work with. So to conquer a challenge like helping his client BuildDirect.
com sell flooring, Cynaumon set out to understand everything about the
target audience by discussing it in depth with his client.
He says just knowing that the average site visitor is a 39-year-old female
isn’t enough. Dig deeper: What does she drive? How many kids does she
have? How does she dress? What does she do during the day? That type
of detailed information is what can help reveal a shared experience.
While the BuildDirect.com spot also returned to the emotion of anxiety (touching
on the lack of customer service at big-box hardware stores and outdated flooring at liquidators), not every spot has to rely on paranoia—you can push a lot of other emotional
buttons. For ShoeMint.com, a club where women can buy designer shoes at reduced
prices, Cynaumon tapped into the emotions women experience when they find a
perfect pair of shoes. The copy reflected the feeling women get when their right foot
glides into the most elegant shoe they’ve ever tried on and how hard it is not to smile
at that moment, an experience the type of customers who join ShoeMint can relate to.
He notes that the copy specifically mentioned the woman’s right foot because the
majority of people try on the right shoe first. While that may seem minor, attention
“The age of announcing is gone. The realistic
kind of read is what’s in; the human approach,
not the announcer.” —ROBIN MARSHALL
Of course one of the most powerful emotions to use is humor, “Often that’s
what listeners will remember and associate with the advertiser. Look at most
Super Bowl commercials—they are very humorous.”
THEN TRY APPLYING ADCOLOGY
Cynaumon, who holds a Ph.D in psychology, takes Marshall’s belief that ads need
an emotional hook a step farther by focusing on what he calls shared experiences,
feelings that nearly everyone in the audience can relate to. This is part of a practice
he calls “adcology,” which, according to his website, is defined as “the total integration of advertising and psychology for the express purpose of decreasing consumer
resistance while creating immediate action.”
to such details can make a spot much more realistic.
It’s also important to focus on the other senses. For ShoeMint that meant recreating the sounds of an upscale shoe store with classical music and muted female
laughter; a very different soundscape than re-creating the feel of a mall store. “You
could almost smell great leather when you heard it.”
In the end though, he says the key to success is relating to the listener. “Don’t envision your audience as 18 million people. You’ll never hit anyone that way. Instead,
focus on a person that is the absolute target. Envision one person and talk to her.”
OUTSIDE INFLUENCES: THE VALUE
OF CROSS-PROMOTING
Each week in Outside Inf luences we’ll share a piece of advice you might not have
seen because it’s from someone outside of the world of radio and records.
In a recent interview with Entrepreneur, Allison O’Neill, owner of children’s retail
shop Bundle, talked about how to promote without money. One tactic she suggested is
teaming with complementary businesses to share space in each other’s email blasts.
She says partnering with other businesses has definitely helped build awareness of Bundle. For radio stations that lack marketing budgets, O’Neill’s suggestion could be a no-cost road to increasing audience. Consider partnering with
nonprofit organizations or advertisers to spread the word about your station.

biz reports that the band is creating special playlists to help launch the service

Even though it’s called the 2050 tour Wiz Khalifa is actually playing more concert
dates in 2012, according to a Billboard.com article. Tickets for the dates, which
begin in mid-October, are being sold through Khalifa’s website.
A little more than 60% of Americans feel that they will be the ones to decide
when they leave their current job, a number that’s down 12% in recent months.
According to a Rasmussen study, 20% of respondents feel it will be their boss’
decision that will lead to them exiting their position.
Across a three-month period ending in July, an average of nearly 40% of all mobile
subscribers accessed a social media platform from their device. That number
is up from just over 30% in the same period last year, according to a Marketing
Charts article.
The 2012 Country Music Award nominations include a few familiar names for
top 40 fans: Taylor Swift received three nominations, Kelly Clarkson is up for
female vocalist of the year, and Snoop Lion (previously known as Snoop Dogg)
made the list for “Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die,” his collaboration
with Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson and Jamey Johnson. See the entire list of
nominees at Billboard.biz.
When Ryan Seacrest visited his hometown of Atlanta last week, he
made a surprise appearance at an Enrique Iglesias/Jennifer Lopez
show to announce the launch of Power 96.1. The new Clear Channel
mainstream top 40 outlet will, of course, carry his syndicated show.

The CHRonicler
THE FUN (WITHOUT THE .)
MIGHT BE COMING BACK
To paraphrase William Shakespeare, now is the summer of our discontent. Never has so much airtime
been given to so many songs about people so miserable. Or so it seems.
If the summer of 2012 proved anything, it was that
top 40’s success isn’t dependent on party rocking.

RICH APPEL
Perry wallowed in post-breakup agony or catharsis. [email protected]
Ellie Goulding broke big with a song about her fear
of the dark. At least we had Flo Rida to “Whistle” past the graveyard.
Like your CHRonicler, KHTT (K-Hits) Tulsa, Okla., PD Jet Black wonders why. Taking note also of the hits this summer from fun., Kelly Clarkson, Alex Clare and Jason Mraz, Black says: “This summer was different.
Maybe [it’s] that many PDs are less guarded with music decisions than
they used to be, because of the
sheer number of ways our audience can access this stuff.”
This is not to say that prior
to 2012 and those other ways of
accessing music, every warmweather song in power rotation
was as bright as the summer
sun. For some reason, summers
in years ending in “2”—like this
one—produce big hits that go
against the grain. Ten summers
GOTYE
ago it was Nelly’s “Dilemma” and
Avril Lavigne’s “Complicated.” In
the summer of 1992, dance queen Madonna topped the chart with a ballad;
summer ’82 gave us a breakup duet that must be on Gotye’s iPod: the Human
League’s “Don’t You Want Me.” Going further back, the song that ruled the
summer of 1972 featured its singer contemplating suicide (Gilbert O’Sullivan’s
“Alone Again [Naturally]”).
The good news is relief may be on the way in the form of a couple of
video sensations from—no surprise lately—outside the United States.
It’s also not a shock that YouTube leads this charge after what “Call Me
Maybe” did to resuscitate music video as a springboard for top 40 success.
One of these is “Gangnam Style” by Korean rapper Psy, who’s the main
reason I’ll be watching tonight’s Video Music Awards (otherwise known
as MTV’s one night a year to pretend it’s still the old MTV). If 103 million
views of “Gangnam” or Scooter Braun having signed Psy won’t convince
you, maybe the toughest judges there are at Teens React will. One of those
kids said “Gangnam” “could be the new Dougie.”
“Bom Bom,” the recent U.K. No. 1 single by Sam and the Womp, may also
have import potential. Like “Gangnam,” it’s fun and unusual, and the
PSY
video is “out there.” If Train’s current hit can feature a mariachi band,
then there’s room for this eight-piece
combo that plays what can best be described as Balkan electro-ska.
Either or both could brighten
top 40 in the coming months if
PDs heed Black’s advice: “Don’t
be afraid of it if your audience is
already consuming it.”

by MIKE STERN
l
Sometimes we can get too
hyper-focused on our format
and forget to look at what’s
happening outside the world
of top 40 radio. But every
once in a while it’s probably
smart to peek over the fence
and see what’s going on in
the world of adult top 40. So
when RCA Records promoted
Wendy Goodman to VP of
promotion for West Coast
operations and adult music,
it seemed like the right time
to check in with her and get
a fresh perspective on what’s
going on in her world.
Goodman has a long history
in the business. She started with Maverick Records and C2/Columbia before
joining RCA 12 years ago. She took over as VP of promotion for adult formats in 2006 and just recently added oversight for the West Coast.

to win with our records.

so now it is a true honor to work her
records. P!nk is obviously an incredible talent, but she is also unbelievably refreshing because of her openness and honesty. She also has one

BULLET POINTS
“Never” spends a third week at No. 1
on Hot Digital Songs with 253,000
downloads sold (down 18%). Despite
its downturn, “Never” passes 1 million sold since its release (1.2 million).
On Hot 100 Airplay, “Never” bounds
13-10 (71 million, up 6%) in its fourth
week. The ascent to the Hot 100 Airplay
top 10 marks Swift’s fastest, besting her
five-week climb with “Mine,” the lead
single from her last studio album, Speak
Now, in 2010. “Never,” Swift’s fifth Hot
100 Airplay top 10, previews her fourth
studio set, Red, due Oct. 22.
With the Hot 100 points gap between “Whistle” and “Never” slim,
streaming helps decide the winner.
While “Whistle” ranks at No. 2 on
On-Demand Songs, “Never” has not
yet been made available to subscription streaming services that also contribute to the Hot 100’s data sources.
Thus, it does not yet rank on the OnDemand Songs streaming chart.

Flo Rida’s ‘Whistle’ Returns
To No. 1 On Hot 100
Flo Rida’s “Whistle” returns to the top
of the Billboard Hot 100 for a second
week at No. 1, pushing Taylor Swift’s
“We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” down to No. 2 after two weeks
in charge.
After first leading the Hot 100 three
weeks ago, “Whistle” returns to the top
perch, fueled by a 5-3 rise on Hot 100
Airplay (89 million, up 10%, according
to Nielsen BDS). It slips 3-4 on Hot Dig-
ital Songs (161,000, down 10%, according to Nielsen SoundScan) and holds at
No. 2 on On-Demand Songs (751,000
on-demand streams, down 3%, according to BDS).
“Whistle” wins a close race with
Swift’s “Never,” as the former song decreases by just 1% in overall Hot 100
points and the latter slides by 11%. Once
again, sales for “Never” drop, while the
song’s radio airplay continues to surge.
BIG MAC: For the first time since 1997,
and only the third time ever, a Christian
music album is No. 1 on the Billboard
200, as TobyMac scores his first leader
with Eye on It, which bows with 69,000
copies, according to SoundScan.
A Christian set had last led the Billboard 200 on Nov. 1, 1997, when LeAnn
Rimes’ You Light Up My Life—Inspirational Songs spent its third and final
week on top. Prior to Rimes’ reign, the
only other Christian effort to crown the
Billboard 200 was Bob Carlisle’s Butterf ly Kisses (Shades of Grace), which tallied a pair of weeks at No. 1 earlier in
1997, fueled by its hit title track.
Although making his first trip to
No. 1, TobyMac isn’t a stranger to the
upper reaches of the Billboard 200, as
Eye on It is his third top 10. As part of
the trio dcTalk, he also charted five
albums, including the No. 4-peaking
Supernatural in 1998.
Secular audiences might remember dcTalk best for its song “Between
You and Me,” which reached No. 15 on
Mainstream Top 40 in 1996.
INDIE ALANIS: Alanis Morissette scores her sixth Billboard 200
top 10, as Havoc and Bright Lights enters at No. 5 (33,000). The set is the
singer/songwriter’s first since leaving Maverick/Warner Bros. (where
she had spent her entire U.S. career),
as it was released through Collective
Sounds via RED Distribution. First
single “Guardian” reached No. 27 on
Adult Top 40 and has sold 74,000 downloads, according to SoundScan. ••••
