How far can you go in a non-compete agreement?

In these days of radio broadcasting by cluster, some owners find they have more stations than they need and wouldn’t mind “thinning the heard.” There are buyers for these stations and we may begin to see some more deals. When the seller is staying in the market, however, there is often a fear that the buyer may use the station to compete with the seller, and so some sellers have tried to put restrictions in the sales agreement, sort of like a negative covenant in real estate. “Yes you now own the land, but you cannot use it for an industrial purpose.”

Not what your station can do for the client

But rather what your client can do with your radio station. We all have ratings of one demo or another that will eventually put us in the top tier, we all have good qualitative of some nature for a specific demographic, and most of us by now realize it’s about relationships, ideas, value, and engagement and not CPP’s, budgets, cume, or TQL’s.
