00:03Hey, it's Tony Maserati, 98.5 The Sports Hub, been privileged to talk about sports in Boston
00:09and report on sports in Boston for a long, long time to afternoon drive here with Mike Felger
00:14on the Felger and Maz show. The station has been enormously successful over the years.
00:21Few things about myself. I like pretty much everything. Grilling, golf, traveling, eating,
00:26yard work, my lawnmower, my snowblower, you get the idea. So we're always eager to welcome new
00:33partners to 98.5 The Sports Hub. I'll tell you a quick story from years ago. I was walking in
00:38the
00:38hallway, ran into one of our sales guys, and he blindly said to me, or just cold call basically
00:44in the hallway to me, hey, have you ever heard of Aaron's snowblowers? I said, heard about them.
00:49I used to sell them when I was a teenager. My first job was in a hardware store. One of
00:54the first things
00:54I did as an adult was buy one. And so it was an opportunity to marry us with a sponsor
01:00that I
01:01love with a product that I love. They also make Gravely lawnmowers as a natural fit. I've become
01:07very friendly with the representative who hooked me up in the first place with Aaron's. And not only
01:14the salesperson, I mean, but the Aaron's representative. So he's become a friend of mine.
01:18We've really invested. But the bottom line is this. I do believe endorsements are more effective
01:25when they're authentic. I generally try to fully endorse products that I use and believe in or that
01:31I'm willing to try at a minimum. So all things to consider. Just wanted to give you a little bit
01:36about myself. And we're again, very eager to work with people here at 98.5 The Sports Hub. And thank
01:43you
01:43for your time.
