“Being a Creative Writer for radio is one of the most important roles not only within the radio station, but also within the whole Advertising/Marketing landscape… and it’s one of the hardest roles for radio stations to fill with someone skilled…. so, this knowledge and skills will set you apart from others going for these roles (particularly in country and provincial radio environments where people have more than one job and an announcer is usually also expected to be the copywriter.)”
