Stereo system I need?"

Well, let's take a look

State of the art. Let's talk
Signal-to-noise ratio, man-to-man.

Del, I'm herb tarlek.
Good to see you, herb.

General sales manager
For wkrp in cincinnati.

Radio exec. Knew I couldn't fool
You with that bush-league equipment.

Well, let's talk top-of-the-line.
I've already got a stereo.

Uh, we don't, uh,
Make exchanges.

Read the small print. No
Refunds. That's our motto.

And it's a catchy one too.

- well, thanks, herb.
- you should advertise it.

- huh? Yeah?
- yeah.

Business bad, items not
Moving, inventory backlogged.

It's an old story, del. And I know
What you're asking yourself.

"How can I build floor traffic?"

The magic word, del, is radio.

Now let's talk advertising.

Why advertise in the
Newspaper? Kids today can't read.

And television? Stinkerino.

It's radio, del. The
Magic word is radio.

Speaking of radio, herb, let's
Look at this sunansui portable.

Is she a beauty?

She sure is, del. Let's
Tune in to wkrp a.M. Radio,

Where your advertising
Dollar works its hardest.

Herb, can I be sincere
For just one moment?

Not only are you an
Impeccable dresser,

But you are one
Heck of a salesman.

Well, del, coming from you, that's
The greatest compliment ever paid to me.

And I mean that sincerely.

Do you want the radio?

And the stereo. Do you
Want to advertise on wkrp?

Exclusively. Aaah! Ha-ha!

Well, bob, I sure would
Like to help you on this,

But we just don't have
Any openings right now.

But listen, not to worry.
Something will come up for you.

I'm not worried. I don't
Really need a job right now.

I'm just taking a hard
Look at the type of station...

That I want to be
Personally associated with.

That's why I came here
First, because wkrp is

Number one, and I want
To be with the best.

Well, actually, we're number
16 in an 18-station market, bob.

Are we interrupting
Anything? no, no. Not at all.

'cause I want you to meet one of the
World's great advertising salesmen.

- herb?
- uh-huh.

You made a sale?

Uh-huh.

That's great, herb.
Congratulations.

Ah, it's nothing. It's a remote
From del's stereo shop.

From noon saturday,
For three big hours.

Boy, I have done a
Few remotes in my time.

Yeah. Mr. Carlson,
Herb, this is bob burnat.

Bob is a deejay looking for
A position here in cincinnati.

Hopefully with wkrp, but I better
Be going now. Well, okay, bob.

I'm having lunch
Today over at wpig.

Oh, wpig. Now that is the
Number one station in town.

Those swine.

But you are number one with me,
And good luck on that remote, herb.

Andy, I'll be in touch. Okay.

And good luck to you, bob.

Isn't this great? New sales rolling
In, people coming to us for jobs.

I like it.

Come on, herb. Tell
Us all about the sale.

Well, uh,

I know I don't have
To tell you guys...

That it's a dog-eat-dog
World out there.

Oh, yeah.

I've had tougher sales.
Hey, I've had easier sales.

In fact, I've had sales that just
Sort of fell right in the middle.

I've had... Herb!

I think it was the remote
That clinched the deal.

Well, I think it's great.

All we gotta do is figure out who's gonna
Deejay the show. Johnny'd probably be...

Yeah?

Del was sort of
Hoping I would do it.

What? Well, he wants a
Salesman in there pitching,

Not some wigged-out
Disc jockey. come on, herb.

We have discussed this
Thing before. I know. I know.

I'm the sales manager here,
Not an on-the-air personality.

Gosh darn, what a waste.

Will del still go through with this
Deal if we send johnny fever down there?

I don't know.

He's paying 700 big ones, and I
Don't want to disappoint him.

Well, can't you
Talk him into it?

Yeah.

I got an ace in the hole.

What?

Well, I bought...

$2,000 or $3,000 worth
Of stereo equipment,

And I haven't paid for it yet.
