Brad - My Thoughts Exactly
 Defining Success
My contribution to this month's newsletter was going to be a "State of the Station" report of sorts. But the more I tried to put the words on paper, the more frustrated I became. We've had SO many good things happening of late, yet not the kind of things that traditionally define success in business.  
 
This RADIO STATION is so near and dear to me and to all of us who've fought tooth and nail to make it work. As it turns out, the most measurable signs of success have been some of the most personal. Please click here to read more about some of the people who've provided the greatest return on investment for this little business.

Friends Indeed
Dixie Juhlin with original MITM Morning Sidekick Michelle Briddell Here at Martini in the Morning, we like to think of ourselves as one big happy family. You know, the kind of family that puts the FUN back in dysFUNctional. But when a member of our family is struggling, we do our best to rally the troops. Three members of our family are having health challenges and we wanted to bring them to your attention so you might keep them in your thoughts and prayers. First, Dixie Juhlin, mom to former MITM morning "Sidekick" Michelle Briddell (photo above), continues her battle against cancer. And you've undoubtedly heard us talk about Jennifer Cooley, who, in the midst of her own battle against breast cancer, came from her home in Utah to join Team Martini in the Orange County Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. Jennifer continues her life-saving treatment. Last but not least, Liz Thomas in Indiana is also undergoing cancer treatment and as with Dixie and Jennifer, we encourage you to keep them in your heart with good thoughts, prayers and encouragement. We ARE family!
last  MITM Martini Glass  call
One of our regular sponsors, Susan Moeder, owner of Bennacht Counseling and Consulting in Fort Wayne, IN, recently shared an observation: 
You're sighing...I can tell the monthly fiscal roller coaster stresses you out. Understandably. 
 
We're working to prevent the "E Ticket Ride" and that unmistakable sound of groveling by working ahead to match sponsors with sponsorship opportunities. March is full of such opportunities. If you'd like to sponsor a feature such as Sinatra at Six, the 2 Martini Lunch or the Weekend Lounge or even sponsor a day or an hour (for as little as $1), please click here
 
One thing we can all do that doesn't cost a penny is Share the Martini! We receive advertising revenue for every person who has the Miracle Martini Player on, and for every hour that it stays on, playing Martini in the Morning. So the more of us there are using the Miracle Martini Player, and the longer it's on, the more we earn to cover the cost of operating MITM. We're working very hard to keep the music playing. Thank YOU for listening and for sharing the Martini! Each person you introduce to Martini in the Morning, and each hour they spend listening on the Miracle Martini Player, means more music, less groveling!
 
 Cheers!

Brad "Martini" Chambers
