Promoting Walmart Products Through New Radio Quiz Show Titled

Submitted 7 years ago

Hello Sir/Madam @ Walmart Management,

I have a new idea for a radio show. I don't represent any radio station. I'd like for Walmart to be a sponsor of that and in turn Walmart will benefit from promoting its products through radio commercials.

My new show is called "Song Trivia Challenge" and is shown below. If you can forward this to the right person at the helm, I'd certainly appreciate it. Thanks a lot.


Sincerely,

Sriram Viswanathan (Sri)

Introduction
Song Trivia Challenge is a song quiz contest designed for on-air radio listeners. Pls note: Internet radio listeners are at a disadvantage due to signal delay and buffered transmissions.

Conducted at hourly intervals throughout the day, the contest requires listeners to respond only by text to multiple-choice quiz questions that are announced on-air. Contestants race to outwit others by texting their answers in real time using mobile phones to the dedicated short-code SMS.


Mechanics
Every weekday, from 8am to 5pm, every hour on the hour, a song trivia question is announced on-air. The dedicated short-code SMS takes answers for up to 5 min or until the time a winner is chosen whichever comes earlier. The first contestant that texts the correct response is announced as the winner on-air. At this point, the correct answer to the question is also announced. Prizes are won by lucky draw (explained under Prizes.) Questions are anywhere from easy to hard, but the quiz master knows not to frame off-the-wall questions. Some sample questions are listed under:
