". . . and that's the way sales have been since we started using those syndicated transcribed spot announcements produced by KasperGordon, Incorporated!"
For the benefit of those who do not know, Kasper-Gordon, Incorporated, one of the country's leading program producers and distributors of transcribed radio shows, were the first in America to really promote the transcribed spot announcement — were the FIRST to produce musical transcribed spots — and the first, again, to produce and promote the use of the jingle type of radio spot. We have copies of our promotion and trade paper advertising to back up this statement.
As pioneers and producers for nine years, we've learned a lot — and we have put that knowledge into the production of seven different series of syndicated transcribed spots for various businesses — which are meeting with immediate acceptance throughout all of North America. Others have copied the original idea — but our spots SELL!
