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

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! |

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. |

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.

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.
