KIOL - News, Talk & Sports!
No doubt about it...a lot of things get done in Iola and Southeast Kansas every day because of The Trading Post. It's on 101.5 FM KIKS Monday-Saturday from 8:05am to 9:00am except on holidays.
The Trading Post is just what it sounds like. It's a place for you to advertise what you have to buy, sell and trade...for free! No wonder it's so popular!!
In order to balance the interests of listeners and advertisers...for free you may sell used personal items...No businesses are allowed to use the free service. The definition of a business also includes home-based franchises and individuals offering products and/or services that we believe compete with businesses that advertise on KIKS & KIOL.
If you don't qualify for a free ad, you can buy one for just a few dollars...open THIS PDF FILE to read how!
So these are the rules for free ads:
1 We can't accept items over $3,500 dollars or domestic animals over $100.
2. We don't buy, sell or rent real estate
3. No babysitting calls will be accepted.
4. Free ads are for individuals ONLY. Businesses need to pay for their ads. This includes home-based businesses. Occasionally you'll hear a business on the air. Those are PAID ads and we'll let you know that.
5. Only 1 call per day, three times a week.
6. KIKS & KIOL reserves the right to edit mailbag items and phone calls.
7. Numbers are NOT AVAILABLE AFTER 9:15am! We allow a 15-minute grace period to get numbers after the show in case you got a busy signal calling in during the show. Please understand that we can't give out numbers after that! Looking up numbers takes a tremendous amount of time.
If you want your item on the air there are 4 ways:
1. Call the program between 8:05am and 9:00 am. If you call us before or after the program we can't take your item over the phone and we don't save the numbers after the show either.
2. Bring your WRITTEN description of your item to the studio. This is the old fashioned way but it works. We do lock the door before and after business hours so don't get upset, just slip it in the door or tape it to the door.
3. Fax it in. Our fax number is (620) 365-5431. Please get them in by 8:00am weekdays and 7:30am on Saturdays...if you wait to the last minute we might not get it on the air.
4. E-Mail it to us. Our e-mail is tradingpost@iolaradio.com Same rules apply as with the fax. Or use the form below.
Mailbag is at 8:30am. We'll read it two consecutive days. There are no guarantees on free ads...we may have to drop ads for time on really busy days.
KIKS & KIOL can NOT be responsible for items bought and sold on The Trading Post!
