Member Testimonials

More Testimonials
“Our family owned and operated small market stations have been proud members of the Virginia Association of Broadcasters for three generations and over six decades. Why? Quite simply because membership is a winning formula for our stations. Whether it's free legal advice, sales and management training, nurturing the next generation of leaders through the Best of the Best Program, networking, or lobbying efforts in Richmond and Capitol Hill, I know my membership dollars are hard at work because of the tireless advocacy efforts of the VAB! There is a reason the VAB is one of the premier state broadcasting associations, and I encourage all my fellow broadcasters across the commonwealth to get involved today, and become part of this wonderful family called the Virginia Association of Broadcasters!”
Michael Clark Owner-General Manager
WLQM-FM/WJZU-AM, Franklin
“Running a small market radio station is a LOT of work. Sometimes, I’m the engineer, the morning announcer and a sales guy, all at the same time. With having to wear as many hats as I do, the Virginia Association of Broadcasters is my lifeline to training, information and the ability to engage with other broadcast organizations. Being a part of the VAB is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made and one of the best “hats” I’ve ever worn!”
Francis Wood General Manager
WFLO-AM/FM, Farmville
“The VAB has done so much for our organization. Their ongoing seminars have proved to be a valuable resource to both our programming and sales staffs. The Best of the Best Leadership Program has helped several of our current and past leaders take that next step in their careers, including myself! The VAB stands up for local broadcasters with lobbying efforts in both Richmond and Capitol Hill. And finally, the connections made at their networking events are extremely valuable. Each time I attend a VAB event, I walk away with new ideas, contacts, and an increased passion for our industry. We’re very fortunate to have such a strong Association behind us.”
