Programming primarily alternative music, 93 KRO attracts adult listeners between the ages of 18-44. The focus of the station is the music. Promotions, dialogue and giveaways are lifestyle oriented. Marketing of 93 KRO revolves around creating an image of the station in tangible terms which jibe with the on-air image. A sharp clean logo in black and white was chosen for its ability to translate well through any medium while maintaining its appeal to the audience. Features of the station which separate 93 KRO from it's Orlando competition include; localized beach, surf and weather, local features on where to go and what to do in Volusia County Area; and localized lifestyle news covering topics of interest to the local audience.
