Radio Needs iPlayRadio

• After months of development, radio managers now have iPlayRadio.com to help manage their cluster in this new radio world. Liner reads, live copy, program logs, messaging, and more between OMs, PDs and their local and remote talent. “At every station I’ve worked for, it was common to send out liner reads on a Word doc that I emailed out weekly to my air staff, or things were on index cards in the studio,” says Barry Allen, founder and creator of iPlayRadio.com. “I usually had to send out multiple revisions a week from new liners coming in from sales and the national team. This was just one of my communication issues to local and remote talent. Something had to be easier than this!”

When Allen was laid off in January as a PD/morning host at iHeartMedia AC KBFP (Sunny 105.3)/Bakersfield — along with hundreds of others across the country — he knew something was shifting in the industry. He knew it was time to start building a tool for programmers to communicate with their on-air staff in this new remote world that is changing the face of radio. iPlayRadio.com provides a solution to streamline these processes and make life easier for the OM, PD and airstaff as to see the cluster in a quick and easy view.

The service officially launches today with many additional add-on services to come in the near future. Ask about pricing for single stations, clusters and large national radio groups; barter options are also available. Barry’s team can schedule demos for your radio group by visiting iplayradio.com.
