Dave Ramsey’s Smart Money Tour Hits Kansas City. Nationally syndicated talk radio superstar and best-selling author Dave Ramsey brought his “Smart Money” event to KC this week, presenting last night (10/20) at Church of the Resurrection. Ramsey also hosted his EntreLeadership 1 Day event in KC on Wednesday. Ramsey, along with best-selling author Chris Hogan and Ramsey personality Christy Wright, presented common sense principles that Ramsey practices in his own company of more than 550 team members. This is the first time EntreLeadership 1 Day was made available by live stream and was broadcast to more than 13,000 participants. Ramsey combined forces with local affiliate news/talk KCMO to promote the event. Pictured above are Cumulus Media Midwest regional VP Donna Baker (left), Ramsey, and Cumulus KC operations manager Lance Tidwell (right). Baker comments, “The KCMO “Talk Radio” team continues to expand relationships with our audience and clients thanks to our partnership with Dave, resulting in sold-out events both days in KC! Our ‘Evening with Dave’ event is a special opportunity to bring like-minded clients together. We hear feedback about how much it means to share time with Dave, make new friends and business contacts, and spend a fun evening with our programming and sales teams. This event ranks high on our list of favorites and has a meaningful impact on increasing revenue and ratings.”
