Marketers and business owners: Getting attention for your brand is always a challenge. However, there's an easier way. On public radio, like NPR, breaks are about 1/3 of the time of commercial radio. Sponsor messages are delivered by familiar, trusted voices and blend seamlessly with programming, keeping the audience tuned in. The result? Your brand message isn't just heard — it resonates. This contributes to the impressive 84% of listeners who take action. Ready to amplify your impact? Let's craft your local or national campaign that gets results. #PublicRadioAdvertising #BrandAwareness #EngagedAudience #MediaMarketing #AdEffectiveness Source: Kantar / Lightspeed Research, NPR State of Sponsorship Survey, June 2023

About us
In 1997, Public Radio International, backed by a grant from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, created the Public Radio Underwriting Partnership (PRUP) to discover best practices for commercial broadcasters that could apply to public radio corporate support. Jim Taszarek, Sr., a veteran commercial broadcaster, spearheaded the project. From 1997 to '99 'Taz' met with scores of personnel at 10 selected stations. After intense study, he shared recommendations that became industry standard. In 1999, KJZZ / K-BACH General Manager Carl Matthusen sought corporate support increases and hired Jim Taszarek, Jr. to provide corporate sponsorship representation in the local marketplace. The relationship and results inspired other public radio stations to follow suit. Partnering with Kirk Nelson, a successful commercial radio sales manager, Market Enginuity formed. As public radio and television stations added digital platforms and content, Market Enginuity expanded its corporate sponsorship capabilities. In 2015, Harry Clark joined as partner, directing the Market Enginuity national team and Market Enginuity Podcast Group, scaling both multiplatform and multi-market sponsorships. In 2022, Market Enginuity launched the spinoff sister company Soundrise, with Clark as CEO. Soundrise extends Market Enginuity’s longtime tradition of connecting premium, independent voices with values-aligned sponsors so they can thrive, with a focus on podcasting. The company delivers comprehensive sales, marketing, and operational infrastructure to support podcast creators, while preserving their creative independence and content diversity. With offices throughout the country, Market Enginuity currently represents local and national sponsorship for a mix of public media stations.

Waddle you waiting for? See what our Marketing Manager has to say about Gertie the Duck's marketing power.
#Marketers, this fall people are turning to their local NPR and PBS stations for all the election news without political ads. They're checking in for credible information about candidates and ballot issues. And for cute ducks that can make them smile while learning about the election process. Sponsorship of these shorts from WUWM 89.7 FM - Milwaukee's NPR helps your message cut through the quacking out there this election season. (How could I get through this post without a fowl pun?)

A big congrats to our newest partner, Colorado Public Radio, for the win!!
We are proud to announce that CPR is the recipient of a National Murrow Award in the News Documentary category for "A year since Club Q." This documentary tells the individual stories of four people who were present for the November 2022 shooting at Club Q in Colorado Springs that killed five people. Taken together, the stories show how each person survives and recovers from tragedy in their own way. The documentary adapted and packaged the stories that originally aired on KRCC, which is a partner public radio station in Colorado Springs run by Colorado Public Radio. Congratulations to Abigail Beckman, Andrea Chalfin, Rachel Estabrook and Pedro Lumbraño on this achievement. https://lnkd.in/gPy-eYGm
