Jeff Maher (a.k.a. radio's Steve King) has created a volume of result-driven expertise throughout his career with humble, small-market beginnings in Commerce, TX., to his current position as a cluster "Change Agent" in Bakersfield, Calif. This has allowed Jeff to put his skills to work in Operational Management, Strategic Planning, Marketing and Consulting within the radio-audio industry. Attractive results in various markets from the smallest of towns (Monticello) to the larger (Norfolk/Virginia Beach, Va.) and their multi-faceted, unique needs have provided Jeff the opportunity to apply his knowledge and skill to his current leadership position. Since the first day with this radio group, Jeff has provided the analyses, proposals, guidance and supervision that prove his diligent leadership gets results. His continuous efforts have assisted in doubling the group's revenue over the past 3-plus years, and there has been an overall 30 percent increase in listenership due to Jeff's efforts to cater to the individual market's needs, steering away from "cookie-cutter" radio. Additionally, Jeff's direct involvement leads the effort to produce an on-going monthly increase of 10 percent to 30 percent in page views for this group's Internet radio.
