We’re TM

From a flyer produced for the National Association of Broadcasters conference in Chicago in 1976

We’re the most experienced and successful broadcast services organization in the world. The production and programming experts. With the best, most profitable ideas in the business.

WE KNOW WHAT WORKS FOR RADIO

That’s why “The Producer”, our commercial production service, has been the most successful in history.

NEW WAYS TO WRAP UP YOUR AUDIENCE

A new era in radio station imagery has just begun. TM’s “You” campaign is one reason why. “You” reverses the traditional roles. It makes the listener, not the product, the star of your station. “Energy Force” is another reason. It’s the alive, stimulating sound you’ve wanted in ID’s. And then there is “Synergy”. “Good Feelings II”. The “KNBR” series. “CrossFire”. To absorb your listeners. And bring them into your station.

A LOOK AT “WHERE YOU BELONG”

The first complete music series designed totally for television. Covering every need. From sign-on to sign-off.

“Where you belong gives your station a central theme. A theme that carries through your ID’s, sports, news and public service. Your morning and afternoon line-up. With instrumental tracks and custom vocals. With mood changes for your syndicated and local programs. It’s music that will put you on top. Where you belong.

AND HERE IS ANOTHER NEW SOURCE OF SUCCESS

It’s called “The Music Source.” And for good reason. Because it is the one complete and completely original production music and sound effects library that TM, or anyone, has ever produced. Because you wanted us to do it. It’s a new source of production wealth to draw from. The finest product available to make your promos, contests and commercial sports work and sell.

WE GIVE YOU ALL THE PARTS

“The Music Store” contains the essential ingredients needed to produce perfection. Everything. A full range of new and necessary sound effects. Musical effects and punctuators. Underscores and mood setters. And most importantly, it gives you a series of fully produced commercial length instrumentals. From the simple to the spectacular. In the sounds of the times. Unique. Memorable. All new and original. All from only one source. “The Music Source”. From TM.

DON’T MAKE ANY PLANS UNTIL YOU READ THIS

In the not too distant future, local radio advertising as we know it will no longer exist. Because now there is “Masterplan”. Radio’s first total broadcast production and advertising sales support system.

What does it mean for you? It means the mastery of national quality advertising. It means maximum advertising revenue. It means maximum profits.

“MASTERPLAN” MEANS NOTHING BUT THE BEST

It means everything you’d expect from radio’s most complete and up-to-date production service. All the tools you need to offer your advertisers total selling support.

“Masterplan” means music from TM, the masters of commercial music production. It means that professional actors and actresses, heard nationwide, will be yours in ready-to-air commercial spots.

But most importantly, it means an elite collection of fully developed national scale, profit-proven campaigns. Radio advertising masterworks created by Chuck Blore. The master of radio advertising. And produced by TM. The most award-winning campaigns ever.

There has never been anything like it until today. The “Masterplan” for unprecedented sales is ready.

ATTENTION CANADIAN BROADCASTERS

TM has joined forces with Saint Claire Productions of Canada. To meet the new CRTC programming content regulations. And to ensure you a reliable source of TM products and services.

SUCCESS STORIES ALWAYS SOUND GOOD

The key to any station’s success is its sound. And sound means TM Programming. Whether it’s beautiful music, rock or country. We are a total-concept automated programming service. And we offer a complete and thoroughly researched format for your station. Custom designed to fit to your individual market. An entire creative promotional campaign. With professional installation of the TM format. By programming experts. With intensive instruction for your station personnel. And on-going consultation and instruction.

The process is one of quality. In concept, structure, music and equipment. The result is success.
