About Us

The Company

Unique

Without a doubt, Vallie•Richards•Donovan Consulting is a rarity in the world of radio broadcast consulting. We may be the only firm that has never and will never resort to hiring programmers that are between jobs or just looking for a place to hang their hats.

The programming experience on this team spans four decades and now into a new century. We have been fighting the programming wars since the 70s, and winning them. Now that is real experience. The consultancy is beginning its 20th year in building client/consultant relationships.

The Philosophy

Relevant Experience Counts

The consultants at Vallie•Richards•Donovan have been in the competitive programming trenches for a long time. Each consultant understands the need to establish and execute a focused strategy, both for the short term and the long term, including an emphasis on how to not only maintain, but to grow, develop, and take advantage of changing market and industry conditions.

Only Honest Evaluations, Real Solutions

Vallie•Richards•Donovan Consulting is a firm you can rely on to be honest, trust to be direct in a relationship and to work as a member of your team. We are a team member that can bring you the big picture perspective, solutions to your problems, and give you a real, usable action plan that is not just a vague overview or a cookie-cutter manual.

A Vision For Your Future

To survive and prosper in this changed industry of radio today, you must have a vision and a plan that will bring that vision into reality. That vision is unique for each client. That's because each client station must respond to different challenges, competitive environments, and station/company "cultures." Vallie•Richards•Donovan works as a part of your team to provide solutions to meet the challenges facing your station(s). Those solutions are successful because each is a customized response to specific needs that weaves in the common thread elements synonymous with each success story.

The Synergy of Many Ideas

We believe the best actions arise from the best ideas, and the quality of those ideas rests on their originators. At Vallie•Richards•Donovan, you don't get just one quality individual, but the whole firm, with the strengths and experience of each person.

The Bottom Line

To be a true winner in the 21st Century, in the consumer's eyes or the eyes of Wall Street, Vallie•Richards•Donovan Consulting believes that creativity, innovation, flexibility, action, honesty, integrity, and strategic thinking all must be a part of the package.
