McGavren Company when it was founded in 1952 is still being represented by the McGavren Company. Why? Because year after year the company has provided it with sales profits, programming advice and research counsel. These are the foundations of growth — and that growth has been extraordinary by any standards. In 1958, its first year as a national representative, the company had but two stations in the top 50 markets. Today it has 21 — but this figure is important only because it represents top market stations. The size of a rep's list is not an indication of success. Three years ago, the company cut its list from more than 50 stations to 30 stations. As a result, the rep's volume soared 400 per cent. The McGavren Company's philosophy is that their success is based on a small select list of major market clients. Again this year the company his reduced its client list to concentrate even more heavily in the major markets. This successful concentration indicated ability not only to solicit stations but also to sell their time. But in 1952, when McGavren took over Western Radio Sales, a regional radio sales organization, he discovered for himself that a representative firm cannot succeed by concentrating only on the stations which sell easily. By providing sales results for even his smaller clients, he was able to expand into a firm called the Daren F. McGavren Company. As the company grew and more stations were added, McGavren decided to open a Los Angeles office which would be manned by Don Quinn, who a short time later became a partner — giving the company the new name of McGavrenQuinn. By 1958, it was obvious that the company would have to go national, and a New York Office was opened, to be headed by Ralph Guild. Shortly afterward Quinn left the company and is now national sales manager of RKO National Sales. In 1959 McGavren came to New York and the firm once again became known as the Daren F. McGavren Company. 84 (SPECIAL REPORT: RADIO FINANCIAL FIGURES) BROADCASTING, December 10, 1962
