Falmouth Resident Beverly Tilden joins Cape Cod Braodcasting as General Manager

Veteran Boston broadcaster Beverly Tilden has joined Cape Cod Broadcasting (CCB) as General Manager of the Company’s four stations -- 99.9 WQRC, Ocean 104.7, Cape Country 104 and Classical 107.5 WFCC – as well as CapeCod.com.  Ms. Tilden, whose appointment is effective immediately, has more than 25 years experience marketing Boston’s top-rated radio stations KISS 108 and Sports Radio WEEI. She also worked as a corporate marketing executive at AM/FM Radio, the predecessor to Clear Channel.

“Bev is well known in the broadcast industry for her success in building brands and managing teams to both programming and sales success,” stated Gregory Bone, CCB Managing Partner.  “Bev shares the CCB vision for creating a media company that connects with Cape Codders and provides access to our local community for our clients.  Her experience in developing new marketing programs and client-services will be invaluable to us and our advertisers.”

While at KISS 108, Tilden headed up marketing strategies that fueled the KISS Concert into the iconic music festival that sold out without any on-air promotion. She was on the team behind ‘EEI’s Jimmy Fund Radiothon which raised $1 million in its inaugural year and continues to add to that total every year.
