3AW’s Keith McGowan retires this Friday morning after 54 years on radio. Twenty one of those years he has hosted the popular Overnighters program on 3AW.
For the best part of the past decade, Keith has presented the ‘live’ radio advertisements for the Melbourne Observe. During and around these advertisements and at other times during his program Keith has been a champion for newsagents, talking us up. His love of and commitment to the small business and newsagents in particular is something I appreciate, something all Victorian newsagents should appreciate. I have often heard him telling listeners to get to their local newsagent.
During tomorrow morning’s show, there will be a call for listeners to go to their local newsagent to pick up the Melbourne Observer for the 48 page Keith McGowan tribute. Supplies have been increased to ensure that there is enough stock in the system for what should be a sell out issue.
Victorian newsagents: make the most of the opportunity. Put Melbourne Observe the at the counter – somewhere it will drive impulse purchase.
Thanks Keith for your support!
