Global Pet Foods

Thank you a thousand times Big Country!!  I recently was in a local business and the young man  asked where I work as he recognized my voice.  It took a moment, but, when I told him I voice my

radio ads he said "Yes, that's why it's so familiar!    I listen to Big Country all the time and hear you lots!"  Just about every day someone comes into Global and says that they hear our ads on Big Country.  Barry and I feel the success we have at Global Pet foods is definately due to the great exposure our business receives  advertising on Big Country.

Thanks again to Big Country and the great people that work there!

It was a real joy to be there for Tenille  during the "Big Hearts for Big Kids Fundraiser for Sunrise House.  What Big Country and your staff did for this event can only be measured by the fact that you made an incredible difference in the lives of a lot of our young people.  The ripple effect of the change in their lives will surely be felt in their futures and you all played a major part.

Costco Wholesale                       

"As a general rule, Costco Wholesale does very little advertising, however, over the past year we have teamed up with Big Country 93.1 to promote some of our new business services. Big Country did a live remote broadcasts to promote the opening of our new Gas Station and new location of our Garden Center. In addition we participated in a Spring Garden Promotion

I am happy to report that the day Big Country broadcast live from our Gas Station is one of our top three highest sales days, and the garden promotion and remote helped us achieve our highest sales in the five years of its existance, in spite of less exposure due to the new location.

We also participated in Big country's unreserved auction which was an exciting way to promote Costco and we will again. I have found Big Country's sales people, writers and on air personalities to be very professional, accommodating and creative which helps us achieve a strong benefit from the investment we have made in our advertising."
