SMOOTH JAMS RADIO OWNER Rodney Tuggle   Our Story Just over a year ago, I started an internet radio station with help from my wife. Together, we put together a music website with an old PC and a laptop utilizing all the foot work to be played on itunes, windows media player, online sources and mobile apps to tune in on smart phones. We are a licensed royalty paying internet radio station. Our daily numbers have grown from 10 to 70 listeners per hour. Our website traffic has increased ten fold in the past 6 six months.The Impact We are currently broadcasting from upstate new york in dutchess County and we would like to expand more to our local community by broadcasting locally via FM transmitter which is costly and requires an FCC license. At the present time, our maximum number of listeners for our radio station is only 70, but this number can go much higher with your help in funding. Your donations will help us increase the number of listeners through our paid streaming services wihch will allow us to offer more opportunities for people tune in 24/7 365 days a year through innovative technology. Smooth Jams radio has an afternoon music program which features new artists, bands and new song releases Monday through Friday. We strive to give indie artists a chance of radio play, so that their hard work and talent will be shared with listeners all over the world. We strive to show love to the artists and songs that will not be heard on FM stations or played in the clubs. Currently we have a radio DJ who delivers a great program free at cost on our midday mix. His talents consists of mixing old and new songs and providing the best music for our listeners. Your funding will create a website which will allow more interaction with our music program and our Midday mix DJ. We are currently not receiving any income or revenue from any on air advertisers or from the website that would cut down any costs and upgrades. All expenses are paid directly from my own pocket as we both work full time jobs. Any funds we receive will be utilized to increase radio marketing presence, create a package that will draw potential advertisers, and upgrade our website to be more radio friendly and communicative to our very special listeners 365 days a year. We sincerely hope this appeal provides you with the necessary information and inspiration needed to get the required PC's, hardware, software, upgrades, updates, back up generator, marketing presence, advertising and streaming services. We appreciate any amount you desire to give. By reaching our goal of $10, 000, this will bring you innovated music 24/7. In addition this will help impact the number of listeners for Smooth jams Radio and help benefit indie artists struggling to get their music out there. This will help us reach our goal by delivering the smoothest music 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year. All donations will be used directly the way I have listed above and we will honor all donations with shout outs, song requests, dedications, on-air ads and on our website.
