National Partners Help Fund Your Vision

Getting national partners to fund your vision can be expensive and time-consuming. But Advocace changes the math for your organization. We have the contacts, the relationships, and the personnel to find businesses and ministries that want to support your station and reach your audience with their message.

Since 2003, Advocace has delivered tens of millions of dollars in underwriting and sponsorship to listener-supported stations from coast to coast. Some stations and networks have already received over a million dollars in funding to grow their vision and ministry.

Working to fund your ministry

Everyday, Advocace's team of national business development professionals identifies new prospects that know very little to nothing about your station. Our job is to make sure that their product, service or ministry fits your vision for your station. If so, we introduce you to them. Whether in Chicago, Los Angeles, Nashville, Dallas, Colorado Springs, Grand Rapids or point beyond, our Advocace National Representative reaches out for you.

You are in control

Case Study WJTL's small staff felt a big responsibility to their vision.  Here's how Advocace National Representation helped. National Representation for WJTL

You control everything: the dayparts, the rates, the prospect's suitability on your station and the sound of the underwriting announcements. The process is simple and up to you to:

1. Appoint Advocace as your national representative
2. Determine the rates and availabilities for every sponsorship or underwriting opportunity
3. Approve the underwriting schedule from Advocace
4. Determine the production style of the underwriting scripts Advocace prepares
5. Broadcast the underwriting announcements
6. Send proof of performance showing dates and times the announcements were broadcast
7. Receive a check within days after we receive funds from the underwriter

Underwriters that fit your station

Determining which potential underwriter is right for your station is like choosing a new song to add to your playlist or program to include in your new line-up. Advocace works with your station in building a profile that we use when talking to a potential underwriter.

Though Advocace seeks underwriters in all industries, we have a specific focus on those with Christian content like Christian publishing houses, motion pictures, home video, as well as Christian service and relief organizations. Advocace seeks organizations that listeners find safe and appropriate.

Guarding your station's compliance

One of your most precious assets is your station license. Working with a Washington DC-based legal firm, it is one of our primary goals to guard your ministry and station as you do. Your station's compliance efforts with FCC and IRS regulations are extended with Advocace's Underwritng Compliance Procedure. Every script, every spot, every on-air element that our national representatives bring to you has already been reviewed by an FCC attorney. The Advocace Underwriting Compliance Process helps you protect your station from stepping into regulatory infractions.

Your station pays only when you receive payment

Your station can put a team of underwriting professionals to work with no financial investment. Advocace pays for all salaries, travel expenses, technology and other representation expenses. Much as you would pay a local underwriting rep, your station pays Advocace a portion of the funding we acquire for you.

Start national funding for your station

You can begin your station's funding with Advocace National Representation by contacting Advocace for a suitability review. An Advocace representative will ask you several questions about your vision, your station's underwriting availability and the markets you serve. Advocace will help you determine whether national funding is a good fit for your station. Contact Advocace today and get started.
