The following are guidelines to improve the clarity and effectiveness of your announcement.
1. Notices must be in our hands at least two weeks before we can air them.
2. Keep it short: not more than 70 words long.
3. Cover the five "W's": Who, What, When, Where, Why. Tell us...
a. Why our listeners will find it interesting.
b. What the event is.
c. Where it is being held.
d. Who is putting it on.
e. When it's happening (time, day, date, month).
f. When the announcement should run, and when it should end.
g. No announcement will run more than three weeks.
4. Indicate ticket prices or other charges.
5. Make it clear how names are pronounced (include phonetic versions)
6. Include contact information that our listeners can refer to.
7. Let us know in plenty of time if you have to cancel your event.
Sample Public Service Announcement
Note how we've indicated the Who, What, When, Where, Why after each sentence. You don't have to do that in your notice. It's just there to help you see how the guidelines apply. Have you ever wondered why an airplane stays up in the air?
(This is the WHY)
You can find out...at an exhibit called THE MYSTERY OF FLIGHT.
(This answers WHAT)
It's at the MacDonnell Board of Education Science Fair, Monday, June 5.
(This answers WHO, WHERE and WHEN)
The school is at the corner of Maple Avenue and Woodlawn Street, in Ottawa.
(This answers WHERE)
