To accelerate digital radio sales across several platforms, Katz
Media Group announced Tuesday (April 29) the formation of Katz 360
Sales under its Katz Radio Group. The dedicated digital sales group
will concentrate on offering national advertisers targeted radio
inventory in the digital space, including on-air, online, HD and
mobile.
Brian Benedik, the former president of KRG's Christal Radio was
named president of Katz 360 Sales.
The formation of the new group builds on Katz's acquisition last
year of Net Radio Sales, a rep for Internet radio stations and the
online radio channels of radio groups such as Cox Radio, Entercom
Communications and Emmis Communications. The new unit will also
work with Katz Mobile and Katz Database.
"By consolidating these assets into a single unit, we can offer our
broadcasting clients, advertisers and new technology partners a
powerful way to boost the revenue potential of their digital
platforms," said Mark Gray, president of KRG.
Clear Channel Radio, which has the largest portfolio of stations
streamed online, handles its own Internet radio sales through Clear
Channel Katz Advantage.
