Why should I support KAZQ with my business?
"Glad you asked! Thank you for your interest in supporting family safe programming!"
KAZQ is a full-power, non-commercial, educationally licensed, 501(c)(3) organization television station serving the communities of Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Belen, and Los Lunas, as well as most of the entire state of New Mexico, including portions of southern Colorado and eastern Arizona, via our digital broadcast signal, broadcast cable outlets, and satellite coverage with Dish Network and Direct TV. So your spot can potentially be seen by a million plus people, among whom many may be very interested in the services or products you provide.
If KAZQ is a non-commercial station, how do we advertise our goods and services on your station?
KAZQ does not solicit or produce commercials or advertising for our station.
What do you mean you don’t advertise? Isn’t that what I need?
We recognize grants and donations through what is referred to in the non-commercial industry as a “grant acknowledgment."
What is a Grant Acknowledgment?
A grant acknowledgment cannot list your pricing information, sales, discounts, etc. or "Call To Action" or "Comparative" Statements such as "Come by or call today for the best deals and service in town!" and is much lower key in a promotional nature—but we can show and list the products and services you provide as well as contact information including your address and phone number.
We do, however, include with the production of the grant acknowledgment a complete "commercial version" of your spot for use on our commercially licensed "sister" station, KTVS-36. The commercial version will be completely portable for use at other commercial stations or media outlets, including the web.
To summarize, you, as a business, are showing your support for family-safe programming, and in recognition of your support, we are saying "thank you!" by producing a beautiful information video that will be seen by many people. Our coverage map can be seen
