                        WHAT WE DO - FOR RADIO STATIONS

                        _Sportsmedia has a newsroom-to-newsroom relationship with each network station. As sole provider of sports news to each one, we're viewed as an extension to their in-house news teams. Our newsroom is made up of hugely experienced and respected broadcasters who, through our network, speak to in excess of 1.4 million listeners a week. They also feature on the likes of Sky Sports, talkSPORT, IRN and the BBC.

                        We produce regional and national sports bulletins - depending on individual station needs - working with programme controllers / news editors in our network live, in the style of each stations' output. Our journalists can dry-read or fully station-brand audio content, complete with specific station name intros and outros.

                        For our regional groups and ILRs we regionalise bulletins, with stations' local clubs as the headline story. We work with local stars, club managers, chairmen and fans to create content that really puts local sport in the spotlight during our bulletins.

                        _We produce up to to six bulletins every day for each station right across the day from 06:30 every morning. In addition to our daily bulletins, we also create audio packages through OBs at sporting events. Over twenty years, we have provided 'on-site' coverage for a huge number of BBC locals, Heart, IRN, talkSPORT and LBC from events like Wimbledon, The Open, the Ryder Cup, the Rugby Six Nations, the European Athletics Championships, the World Athletics Championships, the Cheltenham Festival and many more.

                        Sportsmedia's business model delivers this free of any charge to stations. We include branded messaging and commercial credits inside bulletins for our clients. Our proposition is entirely sponsor-funded.

                        We utilise part of our news packages to generate highly valuable, editorial coverage for our clients, but our stations retain the overall
                        title rights to the bulletins. This means that each station can use this part of the programming schedule as a way to generate additional revenue streams.
