Advertise in Taos with KNCE
We have a variety of Taos advertising packages to suit your business or promotional needs, at rock-bottom prices you’ll only find at KNCE. You can click on the names below for more information about any package, but it’s easiest to contact us at sales@truetaosradio.com!
30 or 60-second radio ads run during our weekday morning show (hosted by Howie Roemer) between 7am – 9am and our afternoon “Happy Hour” show between 4pm -6pm. To maximize listener engagement, we work hard to make sure our ads don’t sound like run-of-the-mill radio ads (the kind that make you want to turn the dial). We avoid jingles at all cost, and usually, we suggest that the ad just be voice, with a personal touch. Our DJs tend to play instrumental music similar to their show style behind ads with no backing track. This makes for a unique and interesting listening experience every time your ad plays.
