How many times have you heard the presenter and said something like his line suddenly fluffs are available in sets that will be promoted what happened the day before?
Although strange ok to make mistakes, many errors or shame when we hear on the radio in under one thing and that is the lack of preparation. Which is very common to hear the presenter, especially on the radio community that very little preparation for their performances. We all see them. They are the presenters who came into the building five minutes before maturity and in the air, frantically taking'anyiro about the latest Weather Forecast and noise in the Presenter only to finish in the information and load the first song. This is the same as that required to set the presenters at any time in the air and it just is not acceptable. Not only acceptable presenters showed less attention to the radio listeners.
You can say that the right will come out of a community radio presenter but it was clear to me that you're likely to find this kind of presenter of this new generation stations. There are several reasons for this, experience, or unpaid voluntary now and unfortunately, these centers are sometimes run by people who mean well but can not fully understand the point of running a radio Finer of the most important and have little knowledge or understanding of how to build a strong and loyal audience.
Except that there are some sites that I can easily prove that community radio can reach a large, professional voice to serve their communities well and making money. Unfortunately, there are many who do not meet one of the three. Centers people should know that it is difficult to financial success without the discipline or the editorial management team and disciplined presentation. Run the radio is something that I will deal with a different article.
My question submitted to you as a presenter is what you can do to improve performance in the air? Song, the important thing you can do as a presenter is to prepare your event better. This is a strong perception that, from listening to community radio across the country, discipline and preparation techniques will improve the quality of output does not end there.
So, how do you prepare for the event?
First, there is some basis that you have to do that is accepted principles of full time professional radio presenter. The first arrived at the station around before you were in the air because of time and become familiar with the things that can affect the show that day. Think about what makes all the national and local levels and see how you can go back to the stories in a manner consistent with your audience. Always worth listening to information before the center. This will give you a feel for what people are talking about, what their concerns are and how you can win them over by talking about issues that affect them when you go on the air.
What is the meaning of the Controller when the program asks you to be relevant. How do you build the knowledge of the events of your special day but, very important that if you need a presenter to demonstrate your knowledge of the air that day. Being in this position before going into the air for you to prepare.
Second, each performance is the day to day business that need to be served by air. You need to know and understand fully that you run your campaign center, new community information is added to the broadcast, another show going on that day, what the schedule changes, if any, and which will remove the Presenter. Always good for you bosi. Are there things he wants to do in the air today that he did not mention it to you? It is also wise to see that if there are mistakes in the studio and equipment that could affect performance and so on. All this can affect your show and you want to know in front of you going on the air. Being in this position, before the air because you are ready.
Before you say I'll say this is for you. I make breakfast show how I do not know what the audience will talk about how it could be important? The answer is simple, but implementation is more difficult to answer. The answer is that a large breakfast to make the agenda instead of following the agenda of the day ... but that is another story.
Another output from the center that seems to fall under the control of the Presenter is the music. Apparently all cases that the presenter has control over the music hey shows them to play without beating about the bush tragedy has consequences for the entire center. I agree that the professional music shows fully justified in doing so if, after all is an expert in the form of music, years ... t they?
On average, in the community centers of music takes up to 80-90% of the entire output from the center and some go as random stations that allow the computer to the choice of music format station. If this is your community center case and is suitable for understanding the decisions made by central management, so I have no problem with saying that this may not lliest, stupid decision really the music formats I've ever heard or may hear in the future . In addition, if the editorial control for the music that you play the output will be a presenter at best poor and prove that it is a big loss because in every audience you can build trust. I spent many years listening to music output except for some radio people and clear that there is little or no clear music management. Not surprisingly, stations that do have good music policy seems to be the best overall.
What all this to do with you as a presenter? Everything is the answer. Your musical taste is very strong in yourself that you think your audience is not just something that works for the center. Musical tastes really subjective and your listeners have strong views which they like and Dislike. If you play something they do not t want to continue to do so will only go elsewhere. To get the right policy is the art and music scheduling throughout the day the real need of consistent radio music and clearly defined in law Scheduling music.
So, if you are a presenter to play your own music then you must make sure that you are doing the right thing for the station. Simple in my opinion, you must have the control to find your music output. Instead you must find your own choice to play as part of (and in accordance with) the general policy determined by the music management center.
If there is no policy that allows free music for all music policy throughout your center, I repeat will lose listeners. The sad thing is that it is a common belief beggar.
Presenters on the day center, and clearly there are specific policies must play safe. Especially community radio, where your audience is very different demographic. Select familiar known songs, hits big and work carefully Blending this song together. You can do this by providing a connection with the era, mood, tempo and genre. This requires a good knowledge and knowledge of music. You can also use the days as a trigger for this type of music and you can do so only with a better understanding of who, what and where your audience and what they do in a few days. I would recommend every song played and ask themselves whether the songs you select will be enjoyed and the number of listeners after all horizons s because you're playing with them ... right? If all play your songs displayed for the pleasure of your own, then get out of the radio because you can not succeed long term.
So far, then, we have discussed how you could be right in the air only to find out what's going on around you that day. You know what a great story and you have a good idea what you are talking about listeners today because you are making preparations. You also just arrived in time to get the things you do every day updated as well. You know what's happening in your campaign center, you know what the road show is to promote and why. Presenter Did you know that come after you stand on the presenter and you know that there is a CD player below and you will have to adjust some play that way because the three song Segue engineer can not improve until later. You have to plan your music and you should consider the full implications of what you can play. You also understand that you are not playing music for your own pleasure ... You play for the listener to enjoy.
So, in conclusion, the preparation of your radio show is as much, if not more than that part of the radio as a presenter on the air. You can not succeed without adequate preparation and you will be surprised how good you are as you prepare. Test is the last person you do not know (I know you forgot that they were told that large do not care what they think) came on the show on the road, saying they liked the show today.
