"Comfort Zone" Radio Ads
Comfort Zone Radio Spots Available in Spanish
There are three different versions of each commercial--a total of nine commercials in all. The difference
between the versions is the Spanish translation used for the term "credit unions," so three options have been
provided to accommodate regional variations.
CUSTOM TAGGING OF RADIO SPOTS
Each commercial allows time (5 seconds) and background music at the end for your own custom tag to be recorded.
The Comfort Zone Complete Marketing Kit (Radio-only, Print-only, and Combination) may be ordered online or through CUNA
Member Service at 1-800-356-8010.
