Multiple format options are available to easily customize with your CDFI logo, brand colors, business name, address, telephone number, website and photos. All you have to do is fill in the information and print.

Radio Scripts
There are three radio scripts included in the marketing library. These can be customized with your CDFI businesses name, address, phone number, and website.
One script is written from a potential customer’s point of view. This script will require you to hire actors and may cost a bit more to produce. This script was created to tell more of a story and is based on problem/solution marketing.
Two scripts are written from a CDFI’s point of view. You can hire an announcer to read this script, or for a more personal touch, have a representative or yourself record the commercial. Just be sure if you choose this option that the selected person has a clear, conversational tone when reading the script.
