1) We get the buy in from our hosts and reporters, along with me and my boss, to pitch. The hosts and reporters are the friendly voices our listeners hear everyday, so it makes sense that they lead the way on the messaging front. As a producer, I give them updates as well as pitching hints to use to entice donors. I like to keep my Passport up so if there’s something we can tie in into our music shows or news reporting, we can do that on the fly.
