Mark Media Corp. is a Florida, For-Profit, Corporation. We are doing business as AMFMTV.biz formerly Broadcast4sale.com. Mark Media was formed not only to represent buyers and sellers in the area of broadcast station sales, but with the intent to work with broadcaster owners in areas of Branding, Marketing and Station Engineering. Broadcast4sale.com does not represent the scope of our business, today we sell fewer stations and concentrate helping our clients keep their stations and stay competitive. Mark Media grew out of an idea that our background in Engineering with  experience upgrading and moving stations into other markets gives us the ability to see the forest for the trees. When owners are losing money it is not easy to see advantages. Early 1997 Mark created Broadcast4Sale.com to leverage the Internet world wide exposure. 10 great years of Selling followed by the Media Crash October 2007. The market changes everyday. We are consulting service work only today.

Since its formation in 1997, Broadcast4sale.com has been advised clients in millions of dollars in radio and television sales. Most of the clients of Broadcast4sale.com have felt comfortable with Mark representing both the buyer and the seller in their various transactions. Our quest for the unique sale with complete transparency has worked for our clients repeatedly over the past 15 years.

In brokering, the proof is in the repeat business...and all of our clients have either done repeat business with us or indicated they would be happy to do more business with us now or in the future. Our expertise is in the evaluation of the operation of stations, and the potential they have to expand their bottom lines. In today's communication climate, it takes creativity to put together buyers and sellers at a fair price with which both parties will be happy. Whether it is radio or television, cable or computer communications, at least one of the partners has the experience to successfully complete the transaction. We specialize in selling the first time buyers.

The secret to my success then and now is my lifetime love and experience in electronics, everybody loves an arc-r-sparker fix anything Angus MacGyver type. If it does not come off the top shelf, I can find it for you. I can filter truth and reality before the money runs out. Gill Garcia of Hicks Communications (now Clear Channel) exaggerated my skills and recommended me for KIXK Dallas my first major market job. I loved that experience and still owe Gill credit for his confidence. I and Lee Rohden with Texas Oil and Gas, Filed 3 FM 80-90 drop-ins, Lubbock, Canyon, Bastrop, TX and Ben Wollery in Columbus, KS (family hometown). Texas Apps all failed but the Kansas deal was granted. We operated KCCU until it sold for $67K. At the time it seemed like a deal. The financial responsibility of station ownership changed the direction of my life. www.MarkNolte.com , my personal site.
I was a Broadcaster beyond the Columbus experience. I spent a few years in the Two Way/Cellular Biz away from broadcast for perspective and planning. Jim Ray bought KOKE AM and KGNB/KNBT New Braunfels...I will still bet on Jim Ray today. Bobby Mack (Bob McDonald) burned into my mind one phrase ?You can’t own a station...it will cost you $250 thousand just to flip the switch...then how are you going to (staff it) run it!? I was angry and could not have been so motivated to prove him wrong...and did so in Hobbs, NM...again...and again...and again...and again....and again...the rest would be bragging but you get the idea.
At some moment in life, every business person would like to keep score of their success. My skill in selling technical consulting services and my experience in acquiring construction permits helped me promote investors to build those permits. Stuck as an owner, Marketing stations, the daily business of Advertising, ultimately, a greedy wife led  the desire to sell those stations.
My Broker experience led me first to Norman Fischer and Associates in Austin, Texas. I worked for Bill Fox as a birddog (looking for stations that could be for sale). Bill would list them after I would cold call station owners with free engineering work to fix the stations prior to sale. I was able to negotiate better deals direct with the owners, as only a station engineer,  John Barger with John Furr and Associates (Clear Channel) was my indirect mentor. He would crack ?Nolte always gets the good stuff!? In the late 90s John Lauer with Force Communications and David Wagenvoord used me to birddog clients. Dave always said ?Your best customer is always your best customer.?
