Program Ideas.
Content that engages a mature audience
and enhances Sunshine FM’s programming.
We welcome proposals for a new segment or program on Sunshine FM.
To help you prepare your proposal, we’ve provided information below
about Sunshine FM’s audience profile and our programming objectives.
We recommend you also read the Program Policies document.
When you’re ready, complete and submit the Program Proposal form below.
If you would like some advice or assistance, please contact the station on 5450 1049.
More than just
an idea.
An effective, engaging program proposal needs to be well thought through and should succinctly address elements such as programming objectives, resourcing and compatibility with Sunshine FM’s audience.
Our audience loves their music.
Sunshine FM isn’t dominated by big blocks of Talk. We believe the station’s high level of listener satisfaction and engagement are built on a foundation of music-based programming tailored to a mature 45+ audience.
Send us your
demo reel.
Ideally, proposals will include audio samples of the segment or program concept, as well as presenter voice work. Your mp3 file can be emailed or linked via providers such as Dropbox to programs@sunshinefm.com.au
And finally…
By submitting a proposal, you accept that elements of your proposal may, in part or whole, be present in existing or future Sunshine FM programming, and that you have no claim or entitlement in relation to that programming content. Incomplete proposals will be returned with an explanatory note. If a proposal is declined, we will consider that proposal round closed.
Submit your proposal.
Please read the Sunshine FM Programming Policy, then send us your Program Proposal form. You can download the form by clicking on the button below. Scan the completed form and send it to us at programs@sunshinefm.com.au or PO Box 1049, Buderim, QLD, 4556. We look forward to hearing from you.
