Here are some of the standard links you will need to learn. As you will see, there are pros and cons of each link.
- Link – opening intro (10 seconds)
Quick intro, and link into the song on the way.
- Link – show menu (30-60 seconds)
After the first two songs have played, spend a little more time telling the listener what’s coming up in your show, and throw forward.
- Link – into the news (10-20 seconds)
Throw forward, and intro into news.
- Link – crunch and roll (10 seconds)
A quick throw forward.
- Link – extended content (10-20 seconds)
More detail on show content, and throw forward.
- Link – what’s on and next show
Shows coming up next, your next show, throw forward to next show and national news. BUT don’t say bye. The listener isn’t going anywhere.
