What is Oregon Lifestyles TV?
Oregon Lifestyles TV is a community based televised program which utilizes the Charter cable channel 9 KBSC TV on the southern Oregon and Northern California coasts, YOUTUBE, and the web site to disseminate local information and events to the residents of the area. Now more than ever the importance of knowing what products and services are available in this region is the very key to ensure the quality of life we all enjoy.

This innovative model has evolved from ‘Coastal Treasures’ and ‘Oregon Lifestyles’ started in 2004, which had an established regular viewing audience of over 20,000 households that watched the one hour program, and is now a successful replicable model to communities around the nation, that want to develop effective community informational programs for the purpose of economic development.

The success of Oregon Lifestyles TV is directly related to a variety of specific strategies that are employed to recruit and retain the highest viewing audience which will watch on a regular basis. Strategies involve: 

1) producing compelling content with the ‘real people’ of the area using local talent 
2) Broadcasting local events, music and artists. 
3) Showcasing the natural wonders, scenery and wildlife 
4) Sponsors come from all areas including tourism, retail, service industries and hospitality 
5) programs and sponsors are uploaded to YOUTUBE and the website monthly generating fresh content with repeat viewers and great search engine optimization. 
6) Utilize the social networks of Facebook and twitter to promote new shows, products and services and post updates daily. 
7) by broadcasting the programs on the internet Oregon Lifestyles is promoting the region to those outside of the area.

Programming is made possible through sponsors and donations and current sponsors include restaurants, retail and gift stores, health care providers, tourism committees, hotels and resorts, fishing guides, automobile service companies, fitness centers, local artists and the list continues.
