My Radio

I am absolutely in love with iHeartRadio! If you haven’t heard of it then you should definitely head over to iHeartRadio.com to learn more, or just continue reading and I will tell you all about it!

iHeartRadio was created by ClearChannel Communications in 2010. It gives listeners the opportunity to tune in to over 750 radio stations across the country. It has two different avenues of listening; online and on your mobile device. If you are at your computer you can easily log on to iheartradio.com and find your favorite radio stations or you also have the convenience of downloading to iHeartRadio application to your mobile phone for a very convenient way to listen to those stations while you are on the go.

The think I really like about iHeartRadio is that it gives you the opportunity to listen to radio stations from your hometown, places you used to live or have visited, or just explore new types of music and stations from places you have never been. It allows for an immense amount of culture to be learned right at the tips of your fingers.

iHeartRadio also hosts tons of contests for their listeners to get involved in. They want to make sure, as any other company, that their listeners stay engaged and continue using their apps and online features from a day-to-day basis. Since there are active listeners/consumers tuned in every hour of the day, there are also opportunities for business to come in and advertise their products. With any radio station, this is how the majority of their revenue is raised, through advertising.

So, if you would like a new music experience, try out iHeartRadio. It is amazing. Go to iHeartRadio.com and check to see if there is an application to download to the cell phone you have!

I absolutely love it when I hear of stories about companies showing their philanthropy efforts through giving back to the local communities. I think it shows a huge amount of gratitude and humility through not only the employees executing on the task, but also the leaders of the company. Good or bad attributes of a company always flow from the readers. I follow ClearChannel on Twitter, and they recently posted a story from the “Local Spirit” sector of the company website. The article was titled “Clear Channel Radio Rochester Breaks Records for Toys for Tots.” The article talks about how every year the local ClearChannel radio stations in Rochester, Minnesota participate in the Toys for Tots toy drive for the Christmas season, but according to ClearChannel.com this year they broke a regional record and  “23,432 toys were raised and distributed to 12,002 kids in southeastern Minnesota.  300 toys were specifically donated to families suffering the loss of their homes in the fall floods of 2010 (2010).”
