Tim Moore

35,000 feet--where the mind travels and time stands still--Tim Moore says he does some of his best thinking. Moore is managing partner of Audience Development Group; a multiple format consulting group engaged in over 100 American radio stations, active in 32 states.

"We custom built this firm to meet the needs of Radio's deregulation and multi-format clusters," says Moore. With the passage of America's Telecom Bill in 1996, Moore's vision called for what he describes as a "Mayo Clinic" approach to companies with cluster combinations of AM and FM brands in a market. The model has been extremely viable for national and regional American groups such as Clear Channel, Susquehanna, Citadel, Beasely, Salem, Greater Media and many others.

Tim Moore began his on-air career at sixteen, then developed experience in sales and management. At 29 Moore became executive vice president for Roy Disney's TM Companies (Dallas), and at 33 returned to Michigan to buy his first radio property. In the late Eighties, Moore entered consulting "by invitation," asked to provide strategic and tactical guidance to stations from San Diego to Portland, Maine.

Over his career Moore has appeared on programs for the NAB, RAB, Canadian Association Of Broadcasters and countless corporate summits. Tim resides in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Naples, Florida and is a graduate of the College Of Broadcast and Cinematic Arts at Central Michigan University (one of America's top ten programs in the media field).

Tim's book The Motivator is his first; a compelling series of essays on leadership. His weekly E-column Midweek Motivator is circulated internationally to thousands of media people. Moore routinely writes for Radio & Records magazine.
