ALERT AM Communication Ideas

After-Sale Communication Tools for ALERT AM Systems

Every bit as important as acquiring your new ALERT AM Emergency Advisory Radio Station is educating your public about the station BEFORE disaster strikes. This will help ensure that those the system is intended to serve will know how to use the station, when appropriate.

As a special value-added, after-sale service, at no extra cost, ISS offers on CD ideas and tools that can be incorporated into your overall emergency communications plan to make it easier to tell those you serve about their new ALERT AM Station. At the heart of this service comes a recommendation to begin developing communications as soon as you purchase the system, so listeners can be made aware as soon as your station becomes operational. We also recommend that you continue communicating about the station at regular intervals throughout each year — to keep it present in their minds.

The below summary describes templates we can provide on compact disc, when we ship your ALERT AM Emergency Advisory Radio Station. Or you may download the files from here. We think you will find them useful.
