“A man who stops advertising to save money is like a man
who stops a clock to save time.”
~Henry Ford

1 - Who We Are

Who We Are

In 2000, three Internet Radio Stations began broadcasting globally, Radio Paradise, Digitally Imported and SmoothJazz.com. Founded and pioneered by California radio, concert and design veterans, Sandy Shore and Donna Phillips, they acquired the domain in 1995 when Monterey’s contemporary jazz FM station switched formats (again), leaving the community abandoned. In 2005, SmoothLounge.com Radio was launched, a nu jazz, chill out sister station to SmoothJazz.com.

A decade later, SmoothJazz.com and SmoothLounge.com remain the Global home for the new sound of Jazz with 24/7 human-programmed radio stations, a weekly Top 50 Album Chart, content-rich websites and innovative, interactive design to welcome the largest jazz and chillout community in the world!

2 - What We Do

What We Do

We PLAY the music because we LOVE the music. We provide the PLATFORM because we have the AUDIENCE.

SmoothJazz.com connects a compelling blend of cool, relaxing music with the people through an original approach involving sound delivery and visual presentation to create an emotional connection between the artist and the audience.

Not just a radio station, not just a mobile phone stream, not just a website, not just an industry hub or Top 50 Chart… SmoothJazz.com is the new paradigm in visionary marketing… the first Global music delivery system set in a smooth lifestyle atmosphere.

3 - How We Do It Differently

How We Do it Differently

Many websites “borrow” our ideas and even our name by inserting a word before, after or in between ‘SmoothJazz,’ but because they are simulated and not originated, they don’t have near the audience… with over 5 million monthly tune-ins and a quarter of a million monthly visitors, SmoothJazz.com delivers a true Global Marketplace of consumers. When you search Smooth Jazz, the #1 result is SmoothJazz.com.

We invented the idea of bundling Internet marketing packages to make promotion affordable… rather than having to purchase separate marketing components and buying advertising in individual markets, SmoothJazz.com bundles radio commercials, banners, on-air features, video performances and email blasts to help you stand out, above and beyond the Playlist, to build a dedicated fan base, develop your brand and create further opportunities.


SmoothJazz.com : The World is Listening

It takes a MAJOR Ad Budget to reach just one MAJOR U.S. Market via traditional media. Go this route and ONE :60 sec radio commercial or ONE small print ad will cost you more than a MONTH of Global Internet Marketing on SmoothJazz.com.

Vetting Your Marketing Team


A Little Perspective : New Media vs. Traditional Advertising


Unless you have unlimited budget, advertising market by market can become costly and inefficient. SmoothJazz.com has shifted the marketing paradigm by bundling, blasting, broadcasting and building an affordable, multi-faceted promotional vehicle to drive traffic to your front door for LESS PER MONTH than one radio commercial or small print ad.

OLD SCHOOL MARKETING
NEW MEDIA MARKETING

Traditional Advertising costs a bundle and limits the opportunity for immediate purchase or interactivity with your brand, offering virtually no accountability or traffic stats.

• Major Market Radio Spot
One 60-second commercial : $700

• National Smooth Jazz Magazine
½ page ad : $750 - $1,200

• National Jazz Magazine
½ page ad : $2,500 - $4,800

• Smooth Jazz P.R. Agent
3 months : $1,800 - $3,000

• National Radio Promotion
2 months : $2,500 - $4,000

 

All-inclusive Strategic Marketing Bundles cost less and allow for long-term branding saturation, reaching targeted fans in all locations online with web traffic stats & accountability.
