The Radio Version of a News Package

One focused minute.

A wide audio footprint.

An Audio News Release is a 60-second, ready-to-air radio story that gives stations useful, timely content while clearly communicating your campaign message. It can feature a professional narrator, an expert or celebrity soundbite, key facts and a simple call to action.

A‑1 handles the complete process—from finding the strongest editorial angle and writing the script to production, approvals, network distribution and reporting.
