Google Math: Buy $1,000 in Radio Ads, And We’ll Give You $2,000 Back
Erick Schonfeld
Here’s a good brain teaser for those famous Google job interviews: If you pay me $1,000, and I give you $2,000 back, how much profit does that leave me?
Unfortunately, this is not a hypothetical question. It’s an actual promotion (http://services.google.com/ads_inquiry/audioproposal/) for Google’s radio ad network, known as Google Audio. That’s right, Google is offering $2,000 to any advertiser who spends $1,000 on a Google Audio ad campaign. The $2,000 comes in the form of a credit on future ad campaigns, but part of it still comes out of Google’s pocket since it needs to pay the radio stations who will run the ads. It amounts to a “buy one, get two free” offer and is good through the end of the year.

I don't know much about Google Audio Ads, but this seems like it would be a good way to to purchase radio ad time for Ron Paul grassroots efforts.
I'm contacting Lord Xar. Please inform anybody else who is doing radio ads about this.
