The individual who leads the Cumulus Media radio stations serving Mobile has been promoted to Regional Vice President, taking on the additional responsibilities of overseeing the company’s broadcast radio stations in four other markets across Bayou Country and the Deep South.
Don Boyd will be adding stations in Baton Rouge, Lafayette, and New Orleans, La.; and Columbus-Starkville, Miss., to his everyday duties.
What’s unclear is who will be assuming his oversight of Pensacola, Fla., and Fort Walton Beach, Fla., stations, which have been markets tied to his Regional VP/Market Manager role in Mobile since 2023.
Boyd first joined Cumulus Media in 2001 as General Sales Manager for its Nashville station group. In 2008, he shifted to a role with then-related entity Dickey Publishing, serving as VP/Advertising for two years.
In 2014, Boyd returned to the radio fold as General Sales Manager for Cumulus’ Atlanta radio stations. He relocated to Mobile as VP/Market Manager in 2018.
“We are excited to expand Don’s role in the region,” Cumulus VP/Operations Bob Walker said. “He is an accomplished leader that helps markets focus on how to help clients grow their business with unique partnerships with our brands and our digital solutions. We are eager to see the impact he will have on the broader region.”
Boyd commented, “I’m very excited to take on this expanded role. We’ve got top-performing radio stations, strong digital capabilities, and a great team in place. Looking forward to relocating to Baton Rouge and getting to work across these markets.”
Cumulus Media owns and operates four stations in Baton Rouge; four stations in Lafayette, La.; and four stations in New Orleans. In Columbus-Starkville, Cumulus also owns and operates four radio stations.
Cumulus Mobile station group is comprised of five stations.
