Biography

Ed Shane

It's refreshing to have a text written by a broadcast pro who is sensitive to the academic theory needs of the college classroom. Ed has managed to write a very readable text which blankets the subject matter. Thanks! (Michael Taylor, Valdosta State Univ)I teach Radio and Television at the University of Southern Indiana. Your book is thebest sales text I have ever encountered...real world examples, tips,
concepts, etc. My Senior level sales class is getting the "real story". I
came to teaching after 10 + years in broadcast sales and management; it's
nice to have a book I believe in. - J. Wayne Rinks, Ph.D., Program Chair: Radio/Television at the University of Southern Indiana


"The book provides a broad perspective on media sales while fine-tuning the key methods and principles needed by today's sales professional."
Dr. Sam Parker, Lipscomb University
